It has a longer wheelbase, a stronger frame,
a more powerful motor and a larger body
than any car under $1000. It affords more
room, comfort and refinements. It gives full
advantages of a really fine BIG car. Not
cramped or cheapened in any way. It holds
the road better, handles easier and performs
smoother. It is a safer car to ride in and a
more durable car to invest in. If this sounds
exaggerated, remember we put it entirely
up to the car itself to prove all of these claims.
You will find improvements found in no
other car under $1000. You will find ad
vantages you thought were obtainable only
in high priced cars. You will find that if
the car does not sell itself you will not be
asked to buy.

Progress must be swift and unerring for lead
ership in the automobile business. A factory
cannot rest on yesterday's success. It must
excel itself anew or lag behind. Auburn
forges farther in front with this new Series
Straight Eight. Auburn's far-sighted program,
coupled with our policy of passing back to
the consumer the benefits of Auburn's
growth, enable us to shatter all precedent by
introducing this, the most astonishing Eight
cylinder car ever on the market. Everywhere
people are amazed at its value. Competition
concedes it forces a complete revisipn of
standards of comparision. Never has there
been a car of its high character available
at its low cost. If you have not seen and
driven this Eight you are missing the
"buy" of the year.
