In related news, three members of the KAR Auction Services group — ADESA, AFC and Insurance Auto Auctions — have donated a vehicle as part of the benefit event at the 2015 National Independent Automobile Dealers Association Convention and Expo at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

The vehicle, a loaded 2013 Mercedes C250W, will benefit the NIADA Foundation during the 69th annual convention – the auction will begin at 2:30 p.m. on June 24.

The entirety of the proceeds will go to the NIADA Foundation, which has a commitment to charitable giving and awards scholarships to future college students around the U.S. and provides education opportunities to dealers and members of the general public.

The C-Class features an automatic package, leather, glass sunroof, sport suspension and sports styling, and a rear-deck spoiler — with only 19,721 miles and a clear vehicle history report. The vehicle will be held on display during the convention, which starts on June 22. ADESA will transport the vehicle for free to the winning bidder to any location in the country.

The trio of companies have raised a total of $42,000 for the NIADA Foundation over the past two years; last year’s event hosted the sale of a 2011 BMW 328xi, which sold for $23,400.
