Cross-Selling

Marcelle Fischler:

ON the way to Annona, a stylish restaurant on the second floor of the Manhattan Motorcars Hamptons dealership here, George and Mary Ann Mathys of Quogue spotted a 2001 Rolls-Royce Corniche the color of merlot in the showroom.

β€œIt really caught our eye,” said Mr. Mathys, 70, who works in real estate management. Over a dinner of braised short ribs and sea bass, the car was a topic of conversation among the Mathyses and another couple.

β€œI ended up buying it,” said Mr. Mathys, a car connoisseur who also owns a 1957 Chevy convertible, a 1936 Auburn and a 1953 Buick.

The two-year-old dealership is one of a number of high-end showrooms offering customers more than wheels.
