On Thursday May 14th, 2015, Max Paul’s Ardmore Toyota hosted students from The Haverford School. Students chose to visit Ardmore Toyota for their Senior Project to learn about aspects of the Automotive Industry and car buying and maintenance. Students were treated to an amazing PowerPoint presentation by one of the top salespeople in the entire region, Ryan Jones. Ryan created a presentation that allowed the students to learn about the process of buying a car. Aspects such as features and benefits, pricing, credit, trade-ins, leasing versus buying, negotiating, finance and warranty protection were just a few of the important details that Ryan Jones educated the students from The Haverford School about. In addition, Service Director Ivan Loi treated the students to an educational experience in the Service & Parts Department where they learned about vehicle repairs and maintenance and different aspects of vehicle maintenance such as oil changes, brakes, tires and much more. We thank the students from The Haverford School for choosing Ardmore Toyota as their location to perform their Senior Project and wish them all the best in their future endeavors!

On Sunday December 2nd, 2012, The Philadelphia Inquirer did a piece on the 2013 Scion FRS. Here is an excerpt and the full story: The new-for-2013 FR-S is the product of a Toyota/Subaru joint venture. Its Subaru counterpart, the BR-Z (are you growing weary of these cattle brands yet?) is largely identical mechanically and aesthetically, although there is some styling differentiation up front. Despite its reasonable price (it starts at $24,200 with the manual gearbox and $25,300 with the automatic), the FR-S is a true sporting machine, a real funster. It's blessed with excellent driving dynamics, thanks in part to its suspension design and the fore-to-aft weight balance afforded by its rear-drive layout. As a consequence, the FR-S proved a lot of fun to throw around on a back road. Click here for the full story We want to ask you, what are your thoughts of the new 2013 Scion FRS?
