We've just recently created a virtual showroom and have seen a spike in sales. We are a small time dealer in the INW, just a few cars a month - but the internet has been an amazing, cost effective tool for our small operation. We're looking forward to a very profitable year in 2006 with tremendous growth. *crosses fingers*
