Announcer: It’s the end-of-the-year sale, and here at Car City you’ll find fantastic bargains! We
have brand-new and used cars, economy-sized cars, and luxury models, all at
reasonable prices! Don't make the same mistake that Ron Gardner made. He bought a
used luxury car somewhere else and isn't satisfied with it. Ron, tell us about it.
Ron: That's right. My name's Ron, and I just bought a used car about a week ago. If I had
come to Car City first, I could've bought the latest model of the same car at the same
price! And with extra features, too.
Announcer: Lara Davids, tell us about the wonderful deal you got at Car City.
Lara: Hi. I'm Lara! I just bought a brand-new Beamer Coyote. It's so beautiful! It's automatic
and has all the latest features! The best part is the price. I paid ten percent as a down
payment, and I'm paying the rest off in monthly payments. When I told my sister about
it, she said that she had just bought a car here, too, and had gotten a really great deal.
Everybody's coming here, so if you don't come now, there won't be any cars left!
Announcer: You heard it, folks. Car City is the place to buy cars. We guarantee you won't find a
better deal anywhere!
