Re: Odd dealer marketing effort in Toronto
The article didn't mention email and I don't think it was used. They took the pic at an address, recorded the address, and snail-mailed the flyer to that address. Pretty easy to do.

Personally, I wouldn't care to get such a flyer. Am willing to bet they got a few complaints from pinheads about "invasion of privacy" (which it's not).

Oh, and read the second of the two comments following the article. He makes a good point, although it thankfully doesn't apply to post-2008 cars..
