Thousands whose first choice is
decisively ,for Auburn cars have
had to buy "second choice" cars
because they could not wait.
Tet, to date Auburn deliveries
re nearly double those for. the.
same period of last year. . '
More Auburn cars will be built
and sold the first 6 months of '
this year than for the .12 months
of 1928, which was our banner
year. (
. Today's demand for Auburn cars
is the fruition of more than four
years of accumulative proof that
Auburn actually des build more
advanced types of cars, and dots
build better cars, and does give
greater value for less money.
But even that is not the keynote
to Auburn's progressive policy.
Mr.E.L. Cord says the customers ;
of the factory are the ones most
. entitled to benefit from th'at fac
tory's success. Auburn puts
these benefits back into the
merchandise itself. Auburn's
growth is retroactive to Auburn
buyers in the form of continu
ally bigger values for less money.
. E. L. Cord says t
The best way t protect the
customer's Inyestment, and
give him trigger value for less
cost. Is to supply the hind of
cars people want, so that they
are sold before they are built.
Proof that the public knows how
to compare values is evidenced
in Auburn's sales jump of 71
the first 3 months of this year.
The demand was instantaneous
and is steadily increasing. To
care for this demand we enlarged
our factory capacity 200. in
creased our number of employees -10Q)
and increased pur produc
tion 100. .
Yet, despite our great production
increase, Auburn cars continue
oversold. The demand far ex
ceeds he immediate supply.
to place the buyer's interest
uppermost.
Today it is universally conceded
that the Straight Eight type of '.
car out ranks all others in superla
tive quality, smoother perform
ance, longer life and higher resale ,
value. -
Now Auburn has completely and '
conclusively proven the Straight
Eight to be as economical as a Six.
And Auburn offers a Straight,,
Eight for less than many Sixes.
The significant thing is that
Auburn's oversold condition
operates in favor of the public.
Only when a factory is in this
condition, and not influenced by
expediency requirements, is it free
While we regret that any one has
had to take a 'second choice'- car
because they could not wait for
an Auburn, obviously that is cne
penalty we must pay for operat
ing our business on the oversold
policy.' . ' '.' '" ' '"'';' v.'.;,.';..
We want to ask aU whoso first
choice is for Auburn cars to b a
little patient. Auburn ears AHJK
worth waiting for. ' Prodoctloa
IS steadily Increasing eonslstaat
with good builneta tactics aad
without lnparlag qnaUty.
Therefore, to Insure delivery, If
your order is not placed, ws
urge you to do so at once.
