For the second year in a row the winner of the Ginn Open will drive away in America's favorite convertible, courtesy of Chrysler. In addition, attendees of the LPGA event can raise money for the Red Cross and the Florida Children's Hospital each time they test drive a Chrysler vehicle during the tournament, being held at the Ginn Reunion Resort, in Reunion, Fla., April 9-15.
Chrysler, which is one of the founding sponsors of the Ginn Open and is its official automotive sponsor, is giving an all-new 2008 Chrysler Sebring Convertible to the tournament's winner.
“The all-new Chrysler Sebring Convertible is now better than ever,” said Dave Rooney, Director – Chrysler Marketing and Global Communications. “It offers the unprecedented combination of unmistakable road presence, athletic handling and innovative technologies, as well as plenty of room for people and gear. In fact, the all-new Sebring Convertible is the only retractable hard top in the segment that can pass the two-golf-bag test.”
The donations to the Red Cross and Florida Children's Hospital will help them provide assistance to the residents of Lady Lake, Fla. The area was hit by severe storms and tornadoes in February that killed 21 people and destroyed hundreds of homes. Chrysler is donating $5 on behalf of each person who test drives a Chrysler vehicle during the Ginn Open. Test drives are open to all individuals with a valid driver's license and are 18 yrs or older. The test drive program will be open to the public April 12-15 from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
About the 2008 Chrysler Sebring Convertible
The all-new 2008 Chrysler Sebring Convertible offers what no other convertible has offered before — three automatically latching convertible top options: vinyl, cloth and a first for this new 2008 Sebring Convertible, a body-color painted steel retractable hard top, all of which can be retracted with a push of a button on the key fob.
Top that with a standard power hard tonneau cover on all models, and top up or down, Sebring Convertible provides the benefits of a coupe and the true open-air freedom of a convertible. Starting at U.S. Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price of $26,145 (including a $675 destination charge), the all-new Sebring Convertible is priced $645 below the comparable outgoing model with $2,965 more content, including standard side seat-mounted air bags, four-wheel disc anti-lock brakes, tire-pressure monitoring system, automatic latching convertible top, standard hard tonneau cover, AM/FM stereo with six-disc CD player, six-way power driver and passenger seats and a tilt/telescoping steering wheel.
