Dear Beloved smart fortwo Owner,

Thank you again for giving me the opportunity to assist you in your automotive needs. I hope that you are still enjoying your smart fortwo and driving in good health. I am sending you this email to invite you to a "road rally" and courtesy luncheon brought to you by Ray Catena to celebrate the success of smart fortwo and to say "Thank You". We value that you are now a part of the Ray Catena family and hope that you will join us on this spectacular day.

On Sunday, November 16, 2008 at 10:00 a.m.* we will gather at the Ray Catena smart center Edison and make a planned route to our final destination at Rooney's Restaurant in Long Branch, NJ on the beautiful Jersey shore. On the way of our rally, we will stop at different check points to take pictures and to show our smart fortwo family in numbers! We are arranging to have local media on hand to document the rally and pictures to be posted on the official Ray Catena smart center Edison website for all to view. This is a great way to assemble fellow smart fortwo owners who drive their smart fortwo in style and pride to get to know each other.

Since we do not have the capacity to invite the entire Ray Catena smart fortwo family, this rally and courtesy luncheon will be on a first come, first served basis. We have a total of forty (40) open spots that will fill quickly! Please call me if you are 100% committed to attend this event so I may reserve a spot for you. Each smart fortwo owner is limited to one guest - a total of two (2) guest per smart fortwo.

Again, I hope you are enjoying your smart fortwo experience and a sincere thank you for being a Ray Catena customer. As Mr. Catena would say, "If you think there is something more important than the customer, think again!" Please come out and join us to celebrate you!

Thank you for considering Ray Catena, the original home of luxury in Edison.

Always at your service,

I wish it was on a Saturday. I would have gone. I received the same e-mail from them. I picked up my Fortwo from Smart Center Edison. I really like my little car.

I would love for it to be on a Saturday as well, but Saturday is smart center Edison's busiest day in which we deal with the most customers.

I did not think of that till after I posted. It would make sense that Saturday would be busier since a lot of people have that day off. Perhaps if it was in the afternoon instead of in the morning? I will see if I am able to go.

How many Smart Fortwo's has Smart Center Edison sold? I do not want to know who just a general number.

Our GM does, however, that information is not disclosed to anyone else.

Also, our numbers are not exact... just a rough estimate and has already changed over this completed weekend.

Dear beloved Ray Catena smart fortwo owners,

Below you will find the Route List for the Road Rally on Sunday, November 16th, 2008. Please take a took at the Route List and familiarize yourself with the route we will be taking. I highly suggest using MapQuest Maps to view the route, or simply a standard map. We will have copies here at the showroom so you do not have to print your own to bring with you.

When arriving at the showroom, please park together and we are requesting that you back in to the parking spot. This will provide an easier and more organized way of exiting the parking lot to start the Rally. Also, since we will be on the Garden State Parkway, a total of $.95 cents will be needed (Raritan Bridge Toll $.70 and Exit 109 Toll $.25). Those with out EZpass will be in the front of the Rally pack to give them a chance to pay for the tolls first.

Any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. We will have coffee, tea and donuts in the morning.

I'll see you Sunday between 9:30 and 9:45 am.
