Driver Buys Bottle of Mobil 1 Motor Oil, Gets a Free Cadillac
FAIRFAX, Va.--An ordinary purchase recently turned into an extraordinary experience for Linda Johnson of Winston-Salem, NC. After driving to her local Wal-Mart store to buy Mobil 1 oil for her car, Johnson learned that she would soon be driving home in a brand new high-performance Cadillac CTS-V, valued at approximately $52,000, courtesy of ExxonMobil. And not just any Cadillac CTS-V – one that has been augmented with one-of-a-kind Mobil 1 detailing.
ExxonMobil today announced that Johnson is the lucky grand prize winner of its “Unique High-Performance 2007 Cadillac CTS-V” promotion, which ran from June 14 through September 30. The promotion gave consumers who purchased specially marked bottles of Mobil 1 and Mobil 1 Extended Performance motor oils the chance to win one of hundreds of prizes. All entries were then eligible for the grand prize package, a brand new 2007 Cadillac CTS-V and a two-day Bondurant Driving School Experience.
“When I found out that I’d won something, I was shocked,” said Johnson. “I entered the contest to see if I'd win the golf clubs for my husband. I didn't win the clubs, but I'm very excited about winning the car instead.”
The grand prize “Unique High-Performance Cadillac CTS-V” is a fully loaded silver 2007 Cadillac CTS-V, complete with customized Mobil 1 embroidered seats and an autographed Mobil 1 engine cover signed by members of the Cadillac CTS-V racing team, including Andy Pilgrim and Johnny O’Connell. In addition to winning the vehicle, Johnson and her husband were also awarded a once-in-a-lifetime driving experience at the famed Bondurant Driving School in Phoenix, Arizona, which they plan to take in early December.
Other prizes awarded during the promotion included a Mobil 1-customized Snap-on tool chest and tool set, a Sony 40” flat-panel HDTV, a Callaway Golf set with Mobil 1 golf balls and cover, an Apple iPod® with Bose SoundDock® , and a customized Mobil 1 fishing rod with Shimano Cronarch reel.
