You could call it the Mercedes-Benz of parties, and be both figuratively and literally correct. Chef David Hawksworth was personally patrolling the food offerings. Christophe Bonzon was making impromptu chocolate treats to accompany the amazing things he brought from his bakery, Chez Christophe. Porsha Zanjani from Stealth Coffee Systems was dealing most adeptly with a long line of espresso aficionados, each shot from her La Marzocco machine absolutely flawless. The occasion was the gala grand celebration of the new 68,000 square foot complex at 550 Terminal Avenue. The largest inventory of Mercedes-Benz vehicles in B.C. has over 20 service bays, one of the largest parts departments in the Lower Mainland, and a team of fully trained Mercedes-Benz certified technicians. On this evening, moody lighting, fog, Burrowing Owl wines, and a DJ making ear candy were all part of the package.
The layout of the new dealership follows the Mercedes-Benz proprietary “Autohaus” concept, which promotes the widespread use of glass to create a bright and open feeling. Mercedes-Benz Vancouver is also home to full service certified pre-owned, AMG Performance, smart and Sprinter. A dazzling array of fine automobiles are there, waiting for your inspection and approbation.
