June 20, 2022 ~ The President of Serra Automotive has some important tips for Chris on how to buy or lease a car in Michigan.

Kirk thinks globally and acts locally and you'll hear plenty of evidence of that in our conversation as Kirk opens the book on his incredible automotive career so far.Kirk grew up in the state of Indiana, the heartland of America, and attended Hillsdale College in Michigan, earning a bachelor's degree in finance with a minor in philosophy (including study at Oxford University's Keble College). He went to work as a financial analyst and controller for Serra Automotive Group, which runs a network of 42 dealerships represented in seven states. He worked there before returning to school to earn an MBA at the University of Notre Dame.Kirk then went to work for BMW, and served as a senior executive for two decades including 11 years abroad.He worked in the late 1990s in Munich, Germany, for the company's chief financial officer. He wrote the CFO's English speeches and other material. On trips to Britain, Kirk had the opportunity to tour Land Rover plants, something he calls beneficial now that he's an owner of and running a Land Rover dealership. It also gave him access to the BMW board at an early age which gave him insights into the inner workings of the company. In 2008, at age 38, Kirk was given the opportunity to become managing director and CEO at BMW Group Financial Services in China. He spent five years in China, leaving Beijing in 2013 to lead BMW Group Financial Services U.S. in Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey. After a short stint in New Jersey, he returned to Indiana as an owner with his old boss, Joe Serra, at BMW of Schererville. He also married his wife, Wendy, that year. Kirk and his family live outside of Chicago in Oak Brook, Illinois.Kirk says, "Cars are my passion. To be able to combine a passion with a profession is awesome!"It is an absolute privilege to be able to share Kirk's story with you. It illustrates his passion and demonstrates the level of commitment that his passion allowed him to bring over the years. It's packed with insights from someone who has been operating at a very senior level across our industry and the globe. I'm excited for you hear this. Kirk's experiences are unique but the lessons are transferable.

This week we invite Joe Serra on the AAH stage to talk dealerships. As a dealer principal, Joe has seen a lot in the past couple of years, and we'll be asking him how business is and what kinds of cars are moving out of the lots these days. As usual, we'll review some of the most interesting news of the week including the possibility of VW buying Alfa Romeo. Also, Chris Perry, formerly of Hyundai, is tapped to run Chevrolet marketing, and speaking of Hyundai, John recently got some seat time in the new Equus, so we'll see what he has to say about that. John McElroy's in studio with Peter De Lorenzo, the Autoextremist, and David Welch from Bloomberg BusinessWeek.

With General Motors and Chrysler eliminating thousands of dealers last week, will those dealers turn to foreign manufacturers to put product in their showrooms? On this edition of Autoline EXTRA, Joe Serra, president of the Serra Automotive Group joins John McElroy and his panel, to offer his insight on the issue. Mr. Serra also talks about his decision to start selling Fisker electric vehicles in some of his showrooms. And also discussed is the new fuel economy regulations and how it will affect the mix of vehicles in the United States. Also joining in the discussion is Neil Boudette from the Wall Street Journal, and auto analyst Aaron Bragman from IHS Global Insight.

Thinning The Herd Darwin observed it in the Galapagos while Rockefeller watched it on Wall Street. Call it natural selection, call it the free market, it all comes down to survival of the fittest. But what happens if everyone survives; strong, average and the weak as well. Some, like elements of our federal government, believe it puts the majority in peril, and so, they opt to "thin the herd." And that's exactly what we saw happen last week with the cutting of more than 2,000 Chrysler and General Motors dealerships. So this week Autoline tackles the topic of the brave, new and sometimes unfair world of automotive retail. Joining John on the panel is Neal Boudette, Detroit Bureau Chief of the Wall Street Journal, Aaron Bragman, automotive analyst from IHS Global Insight and a man whose family has been knee deep in the car business for more than 50 years, Joe Serra of the Serra Automotive Group.
