From date nights to family vacations, and work events to daily errands or social engagement, Park Place Select is a subscription service that is all about your experience.
Park Place Dealerships is pioneering a new kind of vehicle experience as the first dealership group in Texas to offer a full-service subscription service. Anyone who is 26 or older, with a valid drivers license and a clean driving record is eligible to participate. It’s a unique, innovative offering and your experts in excellence are excited to offer you an alternative to traditional car ownership or leasing.
Experience luxury and convenience as soon as you download the Select app and your personal concierge will get to work to ensure you receive the right vehicle when you need it. Do you need at least four seats and room for luggage? What about Navigation and blue-tooth? Temperature set at 68 degrees? By 3 PM on Friday? Done. Park Place is Your Place, so simply tell us your needs, your preferences, and the occasion, and our concierge will do the rest.
We offer three tiers of vehicle subscription- Prime ($895/month), Plus ($1395/mo), and Premium ($1795/month). Whether it’s Monday afternoon or Friday evening, Select offers unlimited vehicle changes (or flips) to all Select clients. So in theory, if you are a Premium member, you could drive a Maserati to work on Monday, a Porsche to dinner on Thursday night, and then flip to a Range Rover on Friday afternoon for your spontaneous weekend road trip Saturday morning. Unlimited flips with a competitive price paired with a Park Place Concierge experience? It’s a perfect match only made in Texas.
No longer pay for maintenance and insurance on your luxury auto- the Select fees are all-inclusive, covering those pesky costs that are associated with traditional vehicle ownership like roadside assistance, oil changes, major repairs, and cleaning. All you have to worry about is filling up the tank and pressing the gas (or brake when appropriate). Park Place Select isn’t just a subscription service, it’s peace of mind.
Our service area applies to where we can actually flip your vehicle. Do you live in Rockwall, Prosper, or Denton but frequently commute to our Select service area? Each subscription allotts for 1,667/miles per month (20,000 per year), so as long as you are driving within 300 miles of our Plano radius point, you can then drive the vehicle to and fro until your next flip.

McLaren Automotive is to offer a track-only version of its newest Ultimate Series model, the McLaren Senna. Unveiled at the 2018 Geneva International Motor Show, the McLaren Senna GTR Concept produces more power and torque than the road-legal McLaren Senna and achieves the quickest McLaren lap times outside Formula 1.
A few months ago, McLaren unveiled their most extreme street-legal track car and all 500 units have already been sold. This past month at the Geneva Auto Convention, McLaren made another bold statement releasing a track-only version of the Senna- the McLaren Senna GTR, which will cost $1.4 million.
Only 75 of the most extreme McLaren will go to production, providing “The very limited number of customers who secure this car will be buying the closest experience you can get to a race car without actually lining up on a circuit grid,” McLaren CEO Mike Flewitt said in a press release.
The Senna series is inspired by one of McLaren’s greatest racing drivers, “utterly dedicated to allowing the driver to be the best they can possibly be.” The exact technical details of $1.4 million dollar vehicle will be released later this year, but what we do know is that while the McLaren Senna GTR will weight a similar 1, 198kg as its street legal predecessor (see video below), it will be even faster.
“The McLaren Senna GTR Concept unveiled in Geneva is not the finished article but it does give a clear indication of our thinking for the car, which promises to be the most extreme and exciting McLaren to drive for many years, if not ever.” –Design Engineering Director, Dan Parry-Williams.
Park Place Lexus Plano partnered with Legacy West to host an evening of luxury to launch the new flagship 2018 Lexus LS 500 sedan.
“We’re always striving to provide the greatest experience for our clients,” said Jordan Case, president of Park Place Lexus. “Partnering with Legacy West, North Texas’ definitive new dining and retail destination, this event offered the perfect blend of luxury and excitement to launch Lexus’ new luxury sedan. We were just as excited about hosting the executives from our charitable partner, Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children’s North Campus, which promises the best in care for Collin County families when it opens later this year.”
Guests floated between three in-dealership destinations to sample delicious plates from Taverna, Toulouse and KAI by Lombardi Family Concepts, as well as Earls Kitchen+Bar, Fogo de Chão and prime BBQ from Carlton Provisions. Crafted Cocktails like Solerno Blood Orange Liqueur and Hendrick’s Gin Fizz’s, Reyka Cosmopolitan Martinis and Monkey Shoulder whisky smashes wetted whistles, along with wines and beers from Detour and Unlawful Assembly from Legacy Hall. Guests where offered hand-rolled cigars from Cigar Art.
Curated fashions were featured by Johnny Was, Coach, Pockets Menswear, and Filson. The Renaissance Dallas at Plano Legacy West Hotel kept it all up-tempo with ‘business unusual’ entertainment.
Lexus built its reputation with the launch of the LS (Luxury Sedan) nearly 30 years ago, solidifying its position as the ultimate flagship Sedan. And this new fifth-generation model lives up to its acclaim, combining a luxurious interior with the latest in technology and a fresh design. While the new sedan sits lower to the ground, Lexus offers an air suspension system with an “access function” that can raise the vehicle for even easier access.
Inspired by Japanese lanterns, the ambient interior lighting sets the mood for a luxurious ride. Sweeping lines curve and spread along the contours of the dash, then flow back along the door panels, creating an expansive environment.Anchoring the intuitive infotainment system is a bright 12-inch display, with an optional 24-inch screen, the largest color heads-up display of any production car in the world.
Powered by an all-new twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V-6, and matched with a new Aisin 10-speed automatic, this luxurious beast churns out 416 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque to smoothly propel you from 0-to-60 mph in just over five seconds.
Starting at $75,000 MSRP, the LS 500 sets a new standard for agility, style, and comfort.
Park Place Lexus Plano is located at 6785 Dallas Parkway, on the southwest corner of Spring Creek Parkway and North Dallas Tollway.
Ken Schnitzer founded Park Place Dealerships in 1987 with a single Mercedes-Benz dealership on Oak Lawn. Today, Park Place Dealerships employs more than 2,100 people and operates 16 full-service dealerships representing luxury brands including Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Volvo, Jaguar, Lotus, Land Rover, Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Bugatti, McLaren, and Maserati.

The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is officially the manufacturer’s top-selling model for four years in a row with worldwide sales reaching 415,000 in 2017. The 2019 sedan made its global debut at the 2018 Geneva Autoshow, premiering increased power output and extended driver assistance programs.
A More Powerful Engine
14 horsepower has been added with a new 2.0-liter inline -4 turbo engine that produces 255 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque. A 9G-TRONIC 9-Speed automatic transmission creates a more dynamic driving experience. The transmission transfers torque using fluid instead of a mechanical clutch, which reduces fuel consumption and increases driving performance and comfort.
Expressive Exterior
The refreshed C-Class combines emotion with intelligence, beginning with a redesigned front and LED headlamps and tail lamps, now standard in the C-Class Sedan. The modifications to the front and rear bumpers and additions of AMG-Line features create more expressive and dynamic character. The headlamps personify Mercedes-Benz attention detail with its clean-lined contours. Finally, on the exterior, two additional paint colors have been added including Mojave Silver Metallic and Emerald Green Metallic.
Interior Upgrades and Options
The interior received some fine-tuning to amp-up the driver experience and re-interpret modern luxury. The center console trim is now available in Walnut Wood or Natural Grain Grey Oak Wood, but any option will yield the look of flowing elegance. The 3D real wood veneer in the center console combines a hand-crafted character with a modern feel. Magma Grey/Black upholstery is newly available for the interior, as is Saddle Brown and Silk Beige/Black for the AMG-Line Interior.
The Display Concept: C-Class Adopts S-Class Features
A notable upgrade in the C-Class sedan includes an optional fully digital instrument display equipped with three different display styles: Classic, Sport, and Progressive. The base model provides a standard 5-inch display, but an upgrade to the fully digital instrument display will yield a 12.3-inch screen with an intense resolution of 1920 x 720 pixels. The central display is available in two sizes, a 7-inch standard display screen and an optional 10.25-inch COMAND® display screen.
State-of-the-Art Active Safety
The updated C-Class features the latest driver assistance systems available in the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, offering the driver cooperative support and providing for a higher standard of active safety than its predecessor. The C-Class is able to drive semi-autonomously (in certain situations), by keeping a close eye on traffic with improved camera and radar systems allow it to see up to 1,640 feet ahead. The vehicle’s surroundings are scanned by radar across a distance of up to 820 feet to the front, 130 feet to the sides, and 260 feet to the rear, while with the camera a range of up to 1,640 feet is possible to the front, including 295 feet in 3D.
The 2019 Mercedes-Benz C-Class will be available at the end of 2018, so stay tuned to Mercedes-Benz USA and Park Place Dealerships for more information and news.
Only a couple months into 2018 and 2019 vehicles are already making headlines, forcing their way into the automotive spotlight and the minds of prospective owners. Volvo is certainly no exception and there newest addition to their lineup might just make you choose this luxury auto brand, over its competitors.
In our past “Why Luxury” articles, we’ve analyzed one of our most popular, entry-level luxury vehicles (see Mercedes and Lexus posts here) with a competing economy class vehicle. For this series installment, that simply was not an option, because Volvo’s 2019 XC40 is a pioneer of a new Volvo standard, currently unmatched by economy manufacturers.
The highly anticipated and class-shattering 2019 Volvo XC40 has been named the 2018 European Car of the Year– a first for the premium manufacturer. The XC40’s newest accolade adds even more merit to an already successful line up of SUVs. Both the XC90 and XC60 were awarded the North American Truck/Utility of the Year title over the past two years, but it’s clear that the vision for the XC40 was anything but Volvo traditional in terms of design, availability, connectivity safety, and technology. Pre-Orders for this new model opened late 2018, and with orders in excess of 20,000, both the U.S. and European auto markets have taken-a-liking to this dynamic combination and modular design.
If you’re in the market or could be tempted to enter the market, for a new sub-compact SUV, then let’s go ahead and look further into “Why Luxury” with the 2019 Volvo XC40.
The 2019 Volvo XC40 comes equipped with a four-cylinder block no matter what engine you choose (diesel or turbo petrol). Starting at a base MSRP of $35,200, the XC40 comes standard with 47.2 cubic feet of cargo area, 9 allow wheel designs, a specially designed bike rack, and additional options to further customize your SUV.
While you cannot expect this vehicle to perform the same as a Range Rover off-road or a low center of gravity, two-door on the racetrack, you can, however, expect a relaxing chassis and superior comfort throughout your entire road-cruise. In the event you do decide to take on some turbulent terrain, you can take advantage of their thick tire tread and adjust to an off-road calibration.
Just as its larger and longer-bodied family member, the Volvo XC60 (arguably the safest car in the world), the 40 Series SUV comes equipped with a list of safety and driver assistance features including Volvo Cars’ Pilot Assist System, City Safety, Run-off-Road protection and mitigation, Cross-traffic alert with brake support and the 360 degree Camera that enhances maneuverability into tight park spots- a feature perfect for those moments when the only spot available is a seemingly impossible parallel parking job.
Its interior aesthetics and space focused design is just as impressive as its compact yet pleasing exterior. You’ll find functional storage space, inductive charging, a hook for small bags, and a removable waste bin in the tunnel console. Functionality and innovation seamlessly converge with Volvo’s first ever car-sharing feature, enabled via Volvo’s digital key technology. Want to share your new XC40 with your mom, brother, aunt, uncle, daughter, or best friend? Owners can simply share their car with family and friends without the hassle of exchanging a physical key.
While we have just scratched the surface on the sub-compact SUV of the year, it’s clear that for a base price of $35,000, its sleek two-tone exterior, functional design, keyless technology, and superior safety features that Volvo is so well-known, make the Volvo XC40 a clear contender for anyone entering the luxury auto market. Head out to Park Place Volvo and our experts will be happy to assist you in finding the perfect vehicle for your needs so that you can experience the growing prestige of the Volvo badge.
“The name Cullinan has been hiding in plain sight since we revealed it as the project name some years ago,” comments Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive Officer of Rolls-Royce. “It is the most fitting name for our extraordinary new product. Cullinan is a motor car of such clarity of purpose, such flawless quality and preciousness, and such presence that it recalibrates the scale and possibility of true luxury. Just like the Cullinan Diamond, the largest flawless diamond ever found, it emerges when it is perfect and exists above all others.”
The story of how this new Rolls-Royce came to be named Cullinan is itself one of the pursuit of perfection. Like the diamond, the Rolls-Royce Cullinan has undertaken a fascinating journey. From the searing deserts of Africa and the Middle East to the freezing snows of the Arctic Circle; from the grassy glens of the Scottish Highlands to the towering canyons of North America, the designers, engineers, craftspeople, and artisans of the House of Rolls-Royce have shaped, tested and polished this unique motor car to eliminate any flaw and make it Effortless, Everywhere.
“We were inspired by the epic processes, over many millennia, which went into the creation of the Cullinan Diamond. The name embodies the many facets of our new motor car’s promise. It speaks of endurance and absolute solidity in the face of the greatest pressures; it tells of rarity and preciousness and it alludes to the pioneering, adventurous spirit of The Hon. Charles Rolls and the engineering innovation of Sir Henry Royce; and, of course, it speaks of absolute luxury, wherever you venture in the world” continued Müller-Ötvös.
Cullinan is the second Rolls-Royce to sit atop the company’s recently announced all-new proprietary aluminum spaceframe ‘Architecture of Luxury’. Unique and unequaled in its brilliance, every facet of the Rolls-Royce Cullinan scintillates.
Müller-Ötvös concludes: “Quite simply, the name Cullinan is perfect and brilliant.

When it set out to redesign the LS sedan, Lexus reimagined what a flagship luxury sedan should be, as if it was launching the brand all over again. Longer, lower and wider than the sedan it replaces, the all-new LS has bold lines that blend the latest Lexus design language with a coupe-like silhouette.
“The LS not only offers unsurpassed performance, style and luxury, its competitive pricing makes it a great value as well,” said Lexus Group Vice President and Division General Manager, Jeff Bracken.
A brand-new platform for the LS
The basis for the new LS is an all-new premium rear-wheel-drive platform (GA–L) first realized for the 2018 LC 500. It gives the LS the ability to offer a more dynamic experience on the road without compromising its exceptional level of comfort.
Enhanced performance and smoothness under the hood
In addition to the new platform, the LS also comes standard with an all-new 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 that delivers 416 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque. Both numbers represent significant gains over the outgoing LS model’s naturally aspirated 4.6-liter V8 (386 hp and 367 lb-ft).
A new Multistage Hybrid System, which debuted in the LC 500h Coupe, combines a naturally aspirated Atkinson-cycle 3.5-liter V6 gasoline engine with two electric motor/generators to deliver 354 horsepower. The electric motors are powered by a compact, lightweight lithium-ion battery. Additionally, the Multistage Hybrid System creates the feel of a 10-speed automatic transmission for a more responsive driving experience.
A completely reimagined standard of flagship luxury
Inspired by the omotenashi principle that welcomes and envelops passengers, the interior of the LS is a showcase of craftsmanship, comfort and cutting-edge design. The interior ambient lighting is inspired by Japanese lanterns while the Shimamoku-inspired wood patterns feature bold contrasts between light and dark, giving the wood a more vibrant appearance. An optional Executive Package takes rear seat luxury one step further with options for heating and massage in addition to an extra 3.4-inches of legroom compared to the previous LS.
Advanced Safety Features and Driver Support
The comprehensive Lexus Safety System+ comes standard on every LS. It includes a Pre-Collision System (PCS) with Pedestrian Detection, Intelligent High Beam headlamps (IHB), Lane Departure Alert (LDA) and All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) with Lane Keep Assist (LKA). One step above is the newly available Lexus Safety System+ A that adds Pedestrian Alert, Active Steering Assist, Front Cross Traffic Alert (FCTA), Road Sign Assist (RSA), Lane Departure Alert with road edge detection and Lexus CoDrive, which bundles Lane Trace Assist and All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) together.
“Last year’s event, celebrating our 30th anniversary, was such a huge success, we decided to bring the event back again in 2018,” said Ken Schnitzer, Park Place Dealerships Chairman and CEO. “New for this year is the expansion of the show onto the fairway of the TPC Four Seasons Championship golf course. There will be more luxury partners in the entertainment pavilion. Guests will experience fashion, tantalizing food, crafted drinks and an amazing line up of vintage, classic, modern, and supercars all set within the incredible backdrop of the Four Seasons.”
The Park Place Luxury & Supercar Showcase, which sold out in its inaugural year, is open to the public with tickets ranging from $25 – $50 for general admission and $100 for VIP All Access, including the VIP Lounge with complimentary food and beverages. Tickets are available online at LuxurySupercarShowcase.com.
The event benefits the Momentous Institute, owned and operated by the Salesmanship Club of Dallas since 1920, which is committed to building and repairing social and emotional health for children so they can achieve their full potential. Each year, the organization directly serves more than 6,000 children and family members through its nationally acclaimed Momentous School and innovative Therapeutic Services.
Within the family-friendly event will be a juried Collector’s Showcase featuring a diverse selection of rare supercars, luxury, and classic cars from private collectors. Trophies designed by Dallas sculptor Brad Oldham, best known for the Traveling Man installation in Deep Ellum, will be awarded to Best of Show, Chairman’s Choice and Salesmanship Club Choice winners. Trophies will also be given to Best In Class and First and Second Place winners in each of the individual categories.
The event will feature fashion from Highland Park Village, live music, specialty boutiques, and a Kid’s Concours area presented by Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children, featuring the North Texas Diecast Collectors Club’s interactive Hot Wheels track, freshly popped popcorn, soda pop truck and games.
Park Place represents some of the most coveted manufacturers in the world, including Rolls-Royce, Bugatti, Maserati, McLaren, Bentley, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, Volvo, Jaguar, Land Rover and Lotus, which also will be featured at the event.
