I<br />
It’s finally here: 2010. It is a year that has been hotly anticipated by Canadians as we welcome<br />
the world to one of the most beautiful cities on earth: Vancouver. The Games are about to begin,<br />
marking history on the West Coast of our fair country. I can’t wait!<br />
Before I look forward to the road ahead, it’s worth taking a look back on 2009. The year started<br />
anxiously as luxury carmakers were urged to hold on tight for what promised to be a very bumpy<br />
ride. As it turned out, it was a meaningful year in <strong>BMW</strong> Canada’s history. Sales records for both<br />
new and pre-owned vehicles were shattered and we swiftly reclaimed our title as Canada’s #1<br />
luxury automotive brand. Thank you Canada and thank you Vancouver!<br />
In this issue, experts at Team <strong>Jessel</strong> share highlights from the new 2010 lineup of heavy metal.<br />
Whether it’s the new X5M that sprints at 555 hp or the eco-conscious construction of the X6<br />
Active Hybrid, there are options enough for even the most discerning driver. This issue’s sleek<br />
cover model, the new Gran Turismo, has earned this spot because it’s a true beauty. I have fallen<br />
in love with this vehicle and hope to have one parked in my own garage very soon.<br />
I also have my fingers crossed this month for snow; plenty of Olympic medals for our home team;<br />
and perhaps a Valentine’s treat or two – that last one is as easy as dog-earing page 20 of this<br />
issue. I am pleased to welcome award-winning journalist Janine Falcon to our contributor roster.<br />
In her story “Ain’t Love Grand,” Janine challenges us to look beyond the obvious truffles and<br />
roses when expressing our Valentine’s Day devotion. This story will help you dazzle your beloved<br />
in thoughtful new ways.<br />
And there’s yet another calendar date to anticipate this year: <strong>Brian</strong> <strong>Jessel</strong> <strong>BMW</strong>’s Annual Gala:<br />
CABRIOLET, on May 8th 2010. More than 1,100 of us will mix and mingle and have a good laugh<br />
as the recently re-throned master of late night, Jay Leno, takes the stage for a full hour of stand<br />
up. This year’s Annual Gala will support three local organizations: Arts Umbrella, Canucks Autism<br />
Network and VGH/UBC Hospital Foundation’s Pancreatic Cancer Research effort.<br />
An exciting year lies ahead, and I wish you all much joy and success in 2010. At <strong>Brian</strong> <strong>Jessel</strong><br />
<strong>BMW</strong>, our greatest joy comes from our success: making dreams come true one <strong>BMW</strong> at a time.<br />
