Lotus of Austin

I stopped by Lotus of Austin this weekend (Autostrada location). Been open for a week now? The new owners an exotic car dealership based in San Antonio, I believe. Very friendly guys who promise to price *very* aggressively.

Barrett owns the only true exotic store in San Antonio (Jaguar/Maserati/Ferrari). Gonzaba owns the Lotus/used-Land Rover store. I doubt Gonzaba has expanded into Austin. It's more likely that Barrett could had expanded, but I've been told he is too much of a tight ass to actually open a whole new store so soon (Ferrari's new location just went up a mere 2 years ago). Hovey is nothing but competively priced, so its defininitely not him.

My guess is Barrett...but I doubt that, too.

I'm thinking maybe Hovey.

Did they change staff with the new owners, or are Neil and Patrick still there?
