On Sunday, December 1st, 2019, Dimmitt Automotive Group started the holiday season with a bang! Every year for the past 18 years, Dimmitt has participated in a Toys for Tots Rally, and this year was no different.  Run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve, Toys for Tots distributes toys to the children of families who cannot afford to buy gifts for Christmas.

 

This year, there were 130 cars that joined the rally. Each brought new, unwrapped gifts to donate. There were trunks stuffed with toys, two Cadillac Escalades, and a Rolls-Royce Wraith completely full of toys. The cars wrapped around the McLaren Tampa Bay parking lot in two lines and ended behind Dimmitt Cadillac St. Pete. All makes and models were welcome, so a large variety of cars participated, including classics, Mini Coopers, and (of course) supercars.

After a safety meeting hosted by the Sheriff’s Department of Hillsborough County, the drivers set out. They drove from the Dimmitt McLaren Showroom in St. Petersburg to the Marine Corps Toy Warehouse in Tampa. There, they unloaded hundreds of toys for children. The rally ended at Armature Works in Tampa.

Thank you to the deputies of the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Department for giving your time to a wonderful cause and for escorting our drivers through Tampa Bay safely. Thank you to the generous drivers and others who donated toys to the program. And thank you to everyone who joined us and made the event a complete success. We appreciate your support and donations! 

 

 

On Friday, November 22, 2019, Dimmitt Automotive Group hosted Festival of Speed’s Wheels, Watches, Whiskey, & Wine event at the Sarasota Studio.

It was a glamorous night filled with exotic vehicles, fabulous time pieces, and unique spirits. The night was full of fun and luxury brands. There were tables presenting these timepieces, spirits, and more throughout our showroom. Attendees were able to enjoy tasting over 40 different wines and spirits.

The all-new 2020 Bentley New Flying Spur was showcased at the event! This is the first event showcasing the new model. Graceful yet commanding, the Bentley New Flying Spur is “a unique fusion of breathtaking performance, contemporary design and intuitive technology. It delivers an enriching experience for both the driver and those who prefer to be driven.” You can learn more about the Bentley New Flying Spur here.

It was an exquisite night all around. Thank you to all who joined us and all our lovely vendors. The night wouldn’t have been possible without you.

On November 25, 2019, Dimmitt Automotive Group participated in the Salvation Army’s Turkey Giveaway. Dimmitt employees went to the Joy Center in Clearwater where they helped distribute Thanksgiving dinners. These dinners feed over 40,000 people! There were 10,000 turkeys distributed along with all the classic Thanksgiving sides. All of these turkeys and sides created Thanksgiving meals for thousands of people. The Turkey Giveaway is only possible due to donations and volunteers.

This Thanksgiving Turkey Giveaway is just one of the many things the Salvation Army does for the community during the holidays. Their motto being, “Doing the most good,” The Salvation Army does all that they can to help the community in times of need. Dimmitt is proud to volunteer with a company that does so much good for our community. 

Thank you to our Tampa Bay community for the generosity. Thank you to all the volunteers who spent time distributing the meals. Thank you to our Clearwater Police who helped direct traffic. The Turkey distribution event could not happen without all of you. Thank you for giving to our Tampa Bay community this holiday season.

On Thursday, November 21, 2019, the Dimmitt Automotive Group was a sponsor at this year’s  Charity Works Golf Tournament. The tournament took place at Belleair Country Club and benefitted underprivileged families and children through a program called Give Hope USA®.

 

“The main goal of the program is to strengthen the outreach efforts of others who are responsible for implementing programs and activities that promote health, hope and happiness. The program provides various personal hygiene kits, packs and special gifts at no charge to those who are eligible and agree to participate.” You can learn more about Give Hope USA® here.

Dimmitt is proud to be a part of an event that does so much for our community. It is programs like Give Hope USA® that make our community stronger.

When one thinks of Aston Martin, one may conjure visions of James Bond, road rallies and quick, smaller performance cars turning nimbly along a racecourse. One certainly doesn’t envision a lifted, five-door SUV with off-road and towing capabilities. Soon, that may begin to change as Aston Martin prepares to unleash its first-ever SUV, the 2020 Aston Martin DBX.

It has taken just a bit for Aston Martin to join the tsunami of automakers entering the SUV market. Of course, they placed some challenging objectives in their own path. They chose to maintain the same standards engineered into their iconic performance cars. They focused on reaching higher levels of real-world off-road and towing capabilities. They were also keenly aware the DBX would be an SUV intended for use as upscale family transportation.

To these ends, the 2020 Aston Martin DBX has been tested on the limitless speeds of the Autobahn and in the heat of the desert of the Middle East. It has been exposed to the Arctic air and Alpine passes. It is just possible it soon could be ready for a cul-de-sac near you.

The 2020 Aston Martin DBX keeps the brand’s trademark oblong grill, although now in front of a larger, taller, lifted vehicle with five doors and room for at least four inside. The DBX shares a platform with the DB11 and is engineered with an all aluminum body. A dovetail spoiler serves as the SUV’s punctuation mark. Coming or going, this is a vehicle with a distinct Aston Martin personality. In-between, it raises eyebrows.

While the brand is being understandably coy with the details, the interior of the 2020 Aston Martin DBX will most certainly contain natural wood appointments, real metal trim, and fine leather. One can expect the latest in technological comforts as well. Fueled by a Mercedes-AMG V-8 engine, its power has been estimated to be upwards to 700 hp. This is not an SUV that will under perform in any area.

Aston Martin has been referred to as a boutique automaker, producing just over 4,000 vehicles annually. The DBX is expected to help take the brand to the next level, where ultimately Aston Martin will be producing only fully electric vehicles. While the journey still has a way to go, the 2020 DBX is an exciting step along the path.

To register your interest and to be one of the first to know more details on the 2020 DBX, please feel free to contact us. We also encourage you to review our full inventory of new and previously owned world-class automobiles. Connect with one of our associates today and reserve your place in line for Aston Martin’s first-ever SUV, the 2020 DBX.

This is the distinctive sound of the Aston Martin Vantage.

A First Class Cabin

The cockpit of the 2020 Aston Martin Vantage is impeccably trimmed. There’s a metal-look instrument panel insert, piano black console and door panel insets, aluminum interior accents, and a leather-upholstered dashboard.

Interior air is filtered and the cabin is cooled by dual-zone conditioning. Your soundtrack is provided by a six-speaker sound system. The driver and front passenger seats are 10-way power-adjustable and provide superior comfort. Interior lighting fades to off.

New for 2020

For 2020, the Vantage adds fade-resistant, carbon-ceramic brakes engineered to withstand higher temperatures. Not only do these brakes perform better, they reduce overall weight by over 50 lbs. New interior and exterior packages allow owners to customize their cars and a seven-speed manual transmission is also a part of the new options available for the 2020 Aston Martin Vantage. For a select few, 200 limited Edition AMR models are being produced for 2020.
