The Art of
the Walkaround
A national competition celebrating the Consultants and Advisors who elevate the client experience to an art form.
Mike Weibel
Celebrating Performance, Presentation, and Excellence.
Every great walkaround does more than present a vehicle. It builds trust, creates emotion, and reflects the professionalism our clients expect from indiGO. The Walkaround Challenge represents our ongoing commitment to detail, disciplined preparation, and an elevated client experience. For 2026, we are strengthening that commitment by welcoming our service advisors into the competition. Their ability to communicate clearly, guide clients with confidence, and reinforce trust is central to the indiGO journey.
This year's challenge will further refine those skills and highlight the excellence that defines our organization.
