"Just look at the quality of the programming and you will see compelling reasons why every executive in the used-vehicle channel should be at CAR 2001," said Chuck Parker of Automotive Digest.

Two intensive days of speakers, executive panels, and management workshops focused on current industry issues and market trends will be presented at the annual conference sponsored and organized by Bobit Publishing Company and Automotive Information Networks, Inc.

Major industry speakers will brief the vehicle remarketing channel participants on the latest industry developments, issues, and emerging opportunities. Six management workshops on used vehicle remarketing systems and technology, off-lease vehicle remarketing, alternative remarketing channels, recruiting and training of industry management, outsourcing of vehicle remarketing services, auction remarketing management, and Internet applications and remarketing are scheduled for day one and two of the conference.

The attendance for CAR 2001 is expected to exceed the CAR 2000 registrations of 750 industry and remarketing executives.

More than 50 industry companies will participate in the Products and Services Expo 2001 scheduled to open on March 19 with exhibits and receptions every day of the conference proceedings.
