Cars are a big part our life. They offer convenience, transportation and security. Purchasing a vehicle is one of the largest investments one will ever make, a purchase that isn’t just a vehicle, its an image of ourselves that we love stepping into..
Buying a vehicle requires trustworthy and professional members who not only understand the ins and outs of cars, but the needs of customers. Different people need different cars and these professionals understand that.
We went to the car experts of Northwest Indiana and got them to share their favorite cars and why they love them. These experts drive, sell and interact with cars all the time. They know the difference between a good car and an amazing car and wanted to share their passion with all of Northwest Indiana.
We’re proud to present a special collection of Northwest Indiana’s best car dealers and their Sweet Life Rides.
Harbor Automotive - Tom Little
“The Enclave is Buick's top-of-the-line luxury SUV, and it exemplifies Buick's commitment to comfort and quality you can feel. From the rich leather seating to the quiet, controlled ride, the Enclave was designed to deliver the best driver experience available from a full-size SUV. Features like the Intellilink touchscreen entertainment system, power moonroof and outstanding audio system make every trip enjoyable, whether it's a drive across the country, or just a quick trip across town. You'll enjoy every minute behind the wheel. But what makes Enclave truly unique is the amount of technology built-in. Voice commands, hands-free calling via Bluetooth, even an available text-to-speech option.

La Porte Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM - Matt Magnuson
“The Wrangler is by far the best selling and hardest to get vehicle we have to offer. It has, hands down, the best resale value of anything on the market. Owning a Jeep Wrangler is like gaining admission into an exclusive club! It is the original and one and only go anywhere, do anything vehicle made for those who want to live life to the fullest. And what is better than putting the top down on a sunny day and going anywhere you want, or busting thru the biggest snow drifts in the dead of winter?”

Sauers Buick/GMC - Kim Sauers
“The GMC Denali is the ultimate vehicle to get the kids to school or tow your new toys. The drive is like no other as it quiet and smoother than most SUV's. With a similar engine to the C7 corvette, this SUV horsepower can be over 420! Not to mention the larger rear doors make sliding in out of the back rows much easier. The Denali is designed to combine maximum functionality for families on the go with the classic style and elegance that the Denali name has been associated with for generations. Denali's also come equipped with state-of-the-art connectivity including a feature rich heads-up display and wifi connectivity “

Southlake Kia - Mike Alexander
“Words simply cannot describe all of the fun technology and comfort features in the all-new 2016 Kia Sorento. You have to come check out this sport CUV for yourself and see why the Sorento is rated highest amongst owner satisfaction safety and in its class. From adaptive cruise control to help you maintain a safe driving distance away from other drivers to more technology in the cockpit that the first space shuttle, you will think you were in a utility vehicle the likes of Mercedes or BMW would build at a fraction of the cost. Drivers love the handling and the AWD capability but are most surprised that a Sport UTE with all this power and comfort gets better fuel economy than most mid-sized sedans!"
Southlake Nissan - Mike Alexander
"After spending just a few minutes in the all new 2016 Maxima I was hooked. From the new sport seats, to all the new technology like the navigation system that not only gives you directions but lets you swipe from screen to screen like all the latest cell phones do to the 360 degree all view monitoring system that lets you see everything around you while your parking to the 306 horsepower engine which really makes you feel like your driving in a world class sports car. Everything about this car just inspires awe from the lines to the led headlamps and tail lamps you’ll definitely want to come check out all the new Maxima has to offer for yourself.“
Thomas Kia of Highland - Tom Seely
"If you're from the school of thought that says family sedans equal boring rides, then you need to take a spin in the 2015 Kia Optima. The Optima's seductive styling makes this reasonably priced 4-door look more like a $50,000 sport sedan. Where most midsize sedans follow a rather conservative path, this car ventures toward the exotic. With the Optima, Kia strives to provide high-end features and an engaging driving experience at bargain prices, and it mostly succeeds. Whether you seek the most basic LX or the top-of-the-line SX Limited, the Optima always delivers more than what its asking price suggests.Lease an Optima for only 189.00 a month!”
BoBB Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM- John Zembillas
"The Ram Big Horn is the perfect combination of luxury and affordability. Style and comfort are priority one with Big Horn without compromising on power and capability. A show truck and a work truck all in one with a reasonable price tag."
