REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS 
To the Partners of 
Shannon Automotive Ltd.: 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Shannon Automotive Ltd. (a 
Texas Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1996, and the related 
statements of income, changes in partners' capital, and cash flows for the 
year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the 
Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on 
these financial statements based on our audit. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a 
reasonable basis for our opinion. 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in 
all material respects, the financial position of Shannon Automotive Ltd. as 
of December 31, 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows 
for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles.

Notes to Financial Statements 

1.     ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: 

       ORGANIZATION 

       Shannon Automotive Ltd. (the "Partnership") is a Texas Limited 
       Partnership formed to acquire and operate two automobile dealerships 
       located in Houston, Texas. Operations include, but are not limited to, 
       selling, financing or leasing automobiles, and the servicing and 
       maintenance of automobiles. 

       The Partnership operates dealerships which hold franchise agreements 
       with a number of automotive manufacturers. In accordance with the 
       individual franchise agreement, each dealership is subject to certain 
       rights and restrictions typical of the industry. The ability of the 
       manufacturers to influence the operations of the dealerships or the 
       loss of a franchise agreement could have a negative impact on operating 
       results of the Partnership. 

       The Partnership sells and services new and used automobiles to a large 
       number of customers in the Houston and surrounding areas. The 
       Partnership performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and 
       generally does not require collateral on its trade receivables. 
       Reserves, if management considers necessary, are maintained for 
       potential credit losses and such losses have been within management's 
       estimates. 

       During 1995, Crown Jeep Eagle, Inc. (the "general partner") purchased 
       48% of the 49% limited partner's interest of Bryron Properties, Inc. 
       (the "limited partner") for a $4,012,000 note payable. The general 
       partner obtained a note of $3,600,000 from Chrysler Credit Corporation 
       which is collateralized by substantially all the assets of the 
       dealership. Simultaneously, Berylson, Inc. (the "new limited partner") 
       purchased the remaining 1% of the limited partner's interest for an 
       $80,000 note payable. The notes have been subsequently paid off. 

       Effective January 1, 1996, the new limited partner received an 
       additional 10% interest in the future profits of the Partnership. As 
       such, the terms of the Partnership Agreement were amended to provide 
       that profits and losses of the Partnership be allocated as follows: 

                       LIMITED   GENERAL 
                       PARTNER   PARTNER 
                     --------- --------- 
  PROFITS AND LOSSES     11%       89%

1.     ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED: 

       The significant accounting policies of the Partnership are as follows: 

       CASH EQUIVALENTS 

       The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments purchased with 
       an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash 
       equivalents. 

       INVENTORIES 

       Inventories are stated at the lower of cost as determined by the 
       last-in, first-out (LIFO) method or market value. 

       PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT 

       Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for normal 
       maintenance of property and equipment are charged against operations as 
       incurred. Upon disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated 
       depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or 
       loss is included in operations. Depreciation is provided over the 
       estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets using the 
       straight-line method. 

       REVENUE RECOGNITION 

       Revenue is recognized when vehicles are delivered or services are 
       provided. Contracts in transit represent delivered vehicles for which 
       drafts have not yet been presented for payment. 

       FLOOR PLAN INTEREST INCOME OR EXPENSE 

       Interest income or expense relating to floor plan financing is recorded 
       net of reimbursements and rebates provided by Chrysler Motors 
       Corporation. 

       DEALER TRADE INCOME 

       Dealer trade income represents amounts equal to the manufacturer 
       holdbacks on all units sold from the Partnership to other dealers. 

       FINANCE INCOME 

       Finance income arising from the sale of recourse and nonrecourse 
       installment contracts to financing institutions is recognized at the 
       time the contract is sold. The Partnership records an allowance for 
       uncollectible amounts which represents estimated repossession losses on 
       contracts sold with recourse. 

       FEDERAL INCOME TAX 

       In accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the 
       Partnership is not subject to federal income tax. Each partner includes 
       his proportionate share of the Partnership's taxable income or loss, 
       deductions or credits in his own federal income tax return.

1.     ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED: 

       DEFERRED RENT 

       The Partnership records rental expense related to certain facility 
       operating leases over the life of the lease using the straight-line 
       method, as required by generally accepted accounting principles. 

       CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK 

       Financial instruments which potentially subject the Partnership to 
       concentrations of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash 
       investments. The Company invests its cash in deposit accounts with Bank 
       of America. The Company has not experienced any losses from this credit 
       risk. Cash equivalents at December 31, 1996, in the amount of $550,000, 
       were deposited. Management believes that the risk of loss is minimal. To 
       date, the Partnership has not incurred losses related to temporary cash 
       investments. 

       The Partnership maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at 
       times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Partnership has not 
       experienced any losses in such accounts. 

       MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES 

       The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
       accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates 
       and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and 
       liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the 
       dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues 
       and expenses during the reporting periods. Ultimate actual results 
       could differ from those estimates. 

       The following estimated fair values of financial instruments have been 
       determined by the Company using available market information and 
       appropriate valuation methodologies. 

       The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and 
       accounts payable approximate fair values due to the short-term 
       maturities of these instruments. 

       The carrying value of the Partnership's Automobile Flooring and 
       Security Agreement approximates fair value.

4.     FLOOR PLAN LIABILITY: 

       The Partnership entered into financing agreements with a bank that 
       permits the Partnership to borrow at interest rates ranging from 7.00% 
       to 7.25% during 1996. Borrowings are collateralized by new and used 
       vehicle inventories, contracts in transit, accounts receivable, 
       property and equipment and substantially all other assets of the 
       Partnership, as well as the corporate guaranties of the general and 
       limited partners, and the personal guaranty of the shareholder of the 
       general partner. The financing agreements are contingent upon the 
       dealer maintaining a certain minimum tangible net worth cash flow ratio 
       and working capital ratio, for which the Partnership has complied. 

5.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: 

       LITIGATION 

       There are certain claims pending against the Partnership which are 
       incidental to the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of 
       management, the Partnership has sufficient insurance coverage to cover 
       any losses and such claims should not result in any significant 
       liability. 

       OPERATING LEASES 

       The Partnership leases certain equipment, automobile dealership 
       facilities and office facilities under operating lease agreements which 
       expire in various years through 2001. Certain leases of the Partnership 
       contain renewal options and clauses for payments of real estate taxes, 
       maintenance and insurance expenses for the facilities. Rental expense 
       for the year ended December 31, 1996 was approximately $839,000. 

       The approximate minimum future annual rental payments for these 
       noncancelable operating leases are as follows for years ending 
       December 31:

       Partnership interest from the partners.

The 1996 pro forma operations data does not reflect a reduction of cost of 
sales related to reduced interest on floor plan notes payable resulting from 
the application of as yet unused proceeds from the Company's initial public 
sale of Common Stock. If the reduction of the floor plan interest expense 
were reflected, then pro forma income (and income per share) would have been 
$5,460 ($0.30 per share) for the quarter ended and $22,776 ($1.25 per share) 
for the twelve months ended December 31, 1996.

The 1996 pro forma operations data does not reflect a reduction of cost of 
sales related to reduced interest on floor plan notes payable resulting from 
the application of as yet unused proceeds from the Company's initial public 
sale of Common Stock. If the reduction of the floor plan interest expense 
were reflected, then pro forma income (and income per share) would have been 
$6,004 ($0.33 per share) for the quarter ended and $17,316 ($0.95 per share) 
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

The 1996 pro forma operations data does not reflect a reduction of cost of 
sales related to reduced interest on floor plan notes payable resulting from 
the application of as yet unused proceeds from the Company's initial public 
sale of Common Stock. If the reduction of the floor plan interest expense 
were reflected, then pro forma income (and income per share) would have been 
$7,287 ($0.40 per share) for the quarter ended and $11,312 ($0.62 per share) 
for the six months ended June 30, 1996.

The 1996 pro forma operations data does not reflect a reduction of cost of 
sales related to reduced interest on floor plan notes payable resulting from 
the application of as yet unused proceeds from the Company's initial public 
sale of Common Stock. If the reduction of the floor plan interest expense 
were reflected, then pro forma income (and income per share) would have been 
$4,025 ($0.22 per share) for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.
