Aristocrat Motors Upgrates Our Lights!


Driving down I-35, you may notice Aristocrat Motors displays a little more prominently than just a month ago. What made our lot stand out? We replaced all of our exterior light poles with LED lights.

Why replace with LED lights? There are a few reasons:

1.       Reduction in energy consumption by 60%
2.       Reduced Carbon Footprint
3.       Improved performance (significantly brighter)
4.       Lifespan: Will last many years longer than traditional bulbs
To see what we mean, look at this comparison between our lot before and after:


By replacing our lights with LEDs, we hope to reduce our energy cost, carbon footprint, and help display the gorgeous vehicles we sell in a light that does them justice.

Customer One


Mercedes-Benz is known as one of the most recognizable brands in the world, synonymous with customer service. Despite being known for the highest levels of care, they are constantly innovating new ways to enhance the customer experience.

2012 marks the beginning of a new program titled “Customer One”. This initiative is designed at making Mercedes-Benz employees and dealers more customer focused than ever before, with an emphasis on always going the extra step to make purchasing a Mercedes-Benz one of the most enjoyable experiences in the world.

Over 3 staggered days in May, almost the entire staff at Aristocrat Motors will be in Denver for Customer One training. We hope to learn new ways to enhance the customer experience and to come back with a refreshing look at how Mercedes-Benz envisions customer service.

We look forward to treating you like the only customer in the world.

Jaguar Engine Announcement


Today at Jaguar Merriam we received some exciting news from Jaguar North America! It appears that over the next year, Jaguar will be introducing two new engines for existing and future products.

The first will be a turbocharged 4 cylinder producing 240 horsepower, which will be available globally on a range of vehicles.

The second, a supercharged V6 motor will be available, making either 340 or 380 horsepower. The 380 hp version will be featured exclusively in the new Jaguar F-Type, arriving to dealers in 2013. The F-Type will be Jaguar’s new entry coupe and convertible that promises to highlight the dedication of performance that Jaguar is known for. 

We look forward to these new engine options, as well as the arrival of all-wheel drive to the Jaguar lineup in the coming year.

Indoor Pre-Owned Sale


As we exit what was one of the mildest winters on record, we all dread the possibility of an absurdly hot summer. Working on a car lot is no picnic in the summer, where a 90 degree air temperature can cause the lot to easily pass 100 degrees. Add to that the baking effect that happens in an interior, and getting in and out of cars becomes a very sweaty experience.

To combat this expected heat, we will be bringing our entire used car inventory inside on Saturday, June 16th. You will be able to view our entire luxury lineup of over 90 cars in the comfort of air conditioning. 

To add to the experience, we will have complimentary food and beverage provided throughout the day. 

On top of the pre-owned sale, we will be having a bed drive to benefit our longtime partner, Sleepyhead Beds, who provides beds to kids in the community that do not have their own place to sleep at night. If you are planning to get a new bed, have an extra bed, or know someone who does, please bring your old one by the store. New pillows and new/used sheets are appreciated. A $40 donation also provides the equivalent of a bed to a child in the Kansas City community.
