Avants Accelerates Growth and Expansion to Serve Automotive Enthusiasts

Membership program launches distinctive print magazine and expands to Portland and Denver

Seattle, WA – September 2, 2020 -- Today, Avants—the premium membership program for gearheads—announced the launch of the Avants magazine.  The magazine is a celebration of the Pacific Northwest car community - from everyday enthusiasts to serious collectors and business owners.  

The Avants quarterly magazine is included as part of the membership package, as well as available at nearly all 100+ Avants partner locations including Griot’s Garage, The Shop and Park Place LTD.

The inaugural issue features an exclusive look inside a renown local car collector’s warehouse, a deep-dive into the 110-year history of Alfa Romeo, a detailed look at a local drive to explore, an overview of the Ford Escort Cosworth and its ties to the Pacific Northwest and more. This unique content is indicative of the stories the Avants magazine will highlight each quarter, rooted in the local automotive community. 

The new magazine is part of the rapid acceleration that Avants has experienced since launching in 2018. Now with over 1,300 members in three markets—Seattle/Tacoma, Portland and Denver—Avants is quickly becoming a premium automotive lifestyle brand.  

Other recent highlights include:

• Additional markets – Portland, OR and Denver, CO;

• New partners including Road & Track, Park Place LTD and Carter Volkswagen / Subaru / Acura;

• Exclusive merchandise program that features limited-run t-shirt designs every month.

These new additions and expansion of offerings continues to squarely position Avants as the community of choice for car enthusiasts.  

“A sense of community is more important than ever during this time of social-distancing,” said Adam Cramer, Founder and CEO of Avants. “The Avants magazine makes it possible for us to celebrate cars and connect when in-person events simply aren’t possible.”

Avants memberships starts at $99/year.  To become a member or learn more, visit www.avants.com.
