thing’s for certain about today’s golf cars:<br />

they’re definitely not your grandfather’s golf cars.<br />

Available accessories<br />

Jason Zangre, comptroller/general manager<br />

at Sunshine Golf Car in Delray Beach<br />

totally agrees. “Golf cars are not just for golf<br />

courses anymore,” Jason says, adding how<br />

Sunshine Golf Car has taken the lead in selling<br />

the newest, most advanced “street legal”<br />

golf cars available.<br />

“They’re more fun to drive,” he says. “It’s<br />

for cruising around. You can take them to the<br />

beach. You can take them downtown. It’s better<br />

than taking your big SUV out on the town.<br />

We try to keep the consumer in mind. They<br />

don’t want the golf cars their grandpas drove.”<br />

As more and more street legal golf cars<br />

are being seen on the streets, their popularity<br />

is on the rise. “More of them are out<br />

there,” Jason says, “and the more people see<br />

them, the more people want them. Street legal<br />

golf cars are the new phenomenon.”<br />

Sunshine Golf Car located at 9740 W. <strong>Atlantic</strong><br />

<strong>Ave</strong>., has been in business since 1980.<br />

They not only sell the latest models of new<br />

golf cars, but they also offer pre-owned and<br />

utility golf cars. They have a full-service<br />

department that can service and repair all<br />

makes and models. “Sunshine Golf Car is a<br />

one-stop shop offering sales and service,” Jason<br />

says. “That’s what differentiates us from<br />

our competition. We have a huge inventory<br />

on site of both cars, parts and accessories.<br />

There’s really nothing we can’t do. People<br />

can buy a new car with all types of add-ons.<br />

We always try to accommodate our customers’<br />

wishes. When you need something fixed<br />

or upgraded, we will fix your existing car if<br />

needed as well.”<br />

Sunshine Golf Car, it’s more than just<br />

making that sale. “We’re looking for a longterm<br />

relationship with our customers, not a<br />

quick sale. We also work with commercial<br />

accounts like schools, condos, apartments,<br />

etc.,” Jason adds.<br />

Sensing the trend toward street legal<br />

vehicles, top manufactures are making<br />

changes in the products they make. “They’re<br />

coming up with new technology, like lithium<br />

batteries,” Jason explains. One leading<br />

brand, Star EV, will be coming out later this<br />

year with a brand new golf car with modern<br />

automotive styling integrated into the vehicle<br />

such as LED headlights, digital display on<br />

the dashboard, and an optional backup cam-<br />
