 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Recent Accounting Pronouncements&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#x2013;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; In February 2013, the Financial Accounting
 Standards Board (the &amp;#x201C;FASB&amp;#x201D;) issued an accounting
 standard update that amended the reporting requirements for amounts
 reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by
 component. An entity is required to present, either on the face of
 the statement where net income is presented or in the notes to the
 financial statements, significant amounts reclassified out of
 accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items
 of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under
 U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the
 same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required to
 be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is
 required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide
 additional detail about those amounts. The amendments in this
 accounting standard update are to be applied prospectively and are
 effective for interim and annual periods beginning after
 December&amp;#xA0;15, 2012. See Note 10, &amp;#x201C;Accumulated Other
 Comprehensive Income (Loss),&amp;#x201D; for the impact of this
 accounting standard update on Sonic&amp;#x2019;s required
 disclosures.&lt;/p&gt;

 At December&amp;#xA0;31, 2012, Sonic had approximately $9.9 million of
 definite life intangibles recorded related to favorable lease
 agreements. After the effect of amortization of the definite life
 intangibles, the balance recorded at September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 was
 approximately $8.7 million and was included in other intangible
 assets, net, in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated
 Balance Sheets. Additions through current year acquisitions are
 preliminary allocations subject to change upon the finalization of
 purchase accounting.&lt;/p&gt;

 Sonic is involved, and expects to continue to be involved, in
 numerous legal and administrative proceedings arising out of the
 conduct of its business, including regulatory investigations and
 private civil actions brought by plaintiffs purporting to represent
 a potential class or for which a class has been certified. Although
 Sonic vigorously defends itself in all legal and administrative
 proceedings, the outcomes of pending and future proceedings arising
 out of the conduct of Sonic&amp;#x2019;s business, including litigation
 with customers, employment related lawsuits, contractual disputes,
 class actions, purported class actions and actions brought by
 governmental authorities, cannot be predicted. An unfavorable
 resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material
 adverse effect on Sonic&amp;#x2019;s business, financial condition,
 results of operations, cash flows or prospects.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 Included in other accrued liabilities and other long-term
 liabilities at September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 was approximately $0.4
 million and $0.9 million, respectively, in reserves for pending
 proceedings. Included in other accrued liabilities and other
 long-term liabilities at December&amp;#xA0;31, 2012 was approximately
 $2.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in reserves for
 pending proceedings. Except as reflected in such reserves, Sonic is
 currently unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss,
 or a range of reasonably possible loss in excess of the amount
 accrued, for pending proceedings.&lt;/p&gt;

 In accordance with the terms of Sonic&amp;#x2019;s operating lease
 agreements, Sonic&amp;#x2019;s dealership subsidiaries, acting as
 lessees, generally agree to indemnify the lessor from certain
 exposure arising as a result of the use of the leased premises,
 including environmental exposure and repairs to leased property
 upon termination of the lease. In addition, Sonic has generally
 agreed to indemnify the lessor in the event of a breach of the
 lease by the lessee.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 In connection with dealership dispositions, certain of
 Sonic&amp;#x2019;s dealership subsidiaries have assigned or sublet to
 the buyer their interests in real property leases associated with
 such dealerships. In general, the subsidiaries retain
 responsibility for the performance of certain obligations under
 such leases, including rent payments, and repairs to leased
 property upon termination of the lease, to the extent that the
 assignee or sub-lessee does not perform. In the event the
 sub-lessees do not perform under their obligations Sonic remains
 liable for the lease payments. Please see Note 12,
 &amp;#x201C;Commitments and Contingencies,&amp;#x201D; to the Consolidated
 Financial Statements in Sonic&amp;#x2019;s Annual Report on Form 10-K
 for the year ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2012 for further
 discussion.&lt;/p&gt;

 In accordance with the terms of agreements entered into for the
 sale of Sonic&amp;#x2019;s franchises, Sonic generally agrees to
 indemnify the buyer from certain exposure and costs arising
 subsequent to the date of sale, including environmental exposure
 and exposure resulting from the breach of representations or
 warranties made in accordance with the agreement. While
 Sonic&amp;#x2019;s exposure with respect to environmental remediation
 and repairs is difficult to quantify, Sonic&amp;#x2019;s maximum
 exposure associated with these general indemnifications was
 approximately $14.0 million and $19.0 million at September&amp;#xA0;30,
 2013 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2012, respectively. These
 indemnifications expire within a period of 12 to 24 months
 following the date of sale. The estimated fair value of these
 indemnifications was not material and the amount recorded for this
 contingency was not significant at September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013. Sonic
 also guarantees the floor plan commitments of its 50% owned joint
 venture, the amount of which was approximately $2.8 million at both
 September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2012.&lt;/p&gt;

 Sonic has a syndicated revolving credit agreement (the &amp;#x201C;2011
 Revolving Credit Facility&amp;#x201D;) and a syndicated floor plan
 credit facility (the &amp;#x201C;2011 Floor Plan Facilities&amp;#x201D;). The
 2011 Revolving Credit Facility and 2011 Floor Plan Facilities
 (collectively the &amp;#x201C;2011 Credit Facilities&amp;#x201D;) are
 scheduled to mature on August&amp;#xA0;15, 2016. On March&amp;#xA0;14,
 2013, Sonic finalized an amendment to its 2011 Credit Facilities
 that, among other things, removed the pledge of 5,000,000 shares of
 common stock of Speedway Motorsports, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;SMI&amp;#x201D;) that
 were previously pledged as collateral to the 2011 Credit
 Facilities.&lt;/p&gt;

 Availability under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility is calculated
 as the lesser of $175.0 million or a borrowing base calculated
 based on certain eligible assets, less the aggregate face amount of
 any outstanding letters of credit under the 2011 Revolving Credit
 Facility (the &amp;#x201C;2011 Revolving Borrowing Base&amp;#x201D;). The
 2011 Revolving Credit Facility may be increased at Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 option to $225.0 million upon satisfaction of certain
 conditions.&lt;/p&gt;

 Based on balances as of September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013, the 2011 Revolving
 Borrowing Base was approximately $141.7 million and Sonic had
 approximately $32.3 million in outstanding letters of credit
 resulting in total borrowing availability of approximately $109.4
 million under the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility.&lt;/p&gt;

 The 2011 Floor Plan Facilities are comprised of a new vehicle
 revolving floor plan facility (the &amp;#x201C;2011 New Vehicle Floor
 Plan Facility&amp;#x201D;) and a used vehicle revolving floor plan
 facility (the &amp;#x201C;2011 Used Vehicle Floor Plan Facility&amp;#x201D;).
 On July&amp;#xA0;31, 2013, Sonic finalized an amendment to its 2011

 The 2011 Credit Facilities contain events of default, including
 cross-defaults to other material indebtedness, change of control
 events and events of default customary for syndicated commercial
 credit facilities. Upon the future occurrence of an event of
 default, Sonic could be required to immediately repay all
 outstanding amounts under the 2011 Credit Facilities.&lt;/p&gt;

 In addition, many of Sonic&amp;#x2019;s facility leases are governed by
 a guarantee agreement between the landlord and Sonic that contains
 financial and operating covenants. The financial covenants are
 identical to those under the 2011 Credit Facilities with the
 exception of one financial covenant related to the ratio of EBTDAR
 to Rent (as defined in the lease agreements) with a required ratio
 of no less than 1.50 to 1.00. As of September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013, the
 ratio was 3.43 to 1.00.&lt;/p&gt;

 On May&amp;#xA0;9, 2013, Sonic issued $300.0 million in aggregate
 principal amount of 5.0% Senior Subordinated Notes which mature on
 May&amp;#xA0;15, 2023. The 5.0% Notes were issued at 100.0% of the
 principal amount thereof. Sonic used a portion of the net proceeds
 from the issuance of the 5.0% Notes to repurchase all of its
 outstanding 9.0% Notes. Remaining proceeds from the issuance of the
 5.0% Notes will be used for general corporate purposes. The 5.0%
 Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations of Sonic that
 mature on May&amp;#xA0;15, 2023 and are guaranteed by Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 domestic operating subsidiaries. Interest is payable semi-annually
 in arrears on May&amp;#xA0;15 and November&amp;#xA0;15 of each year. Sonic
 may redeem the 5.0% Notes in whole or in part at any time after
 May&amp;#xA0;15, 2018 at the following redemption prices, which are
 expressed as percentages of the principal amount:&lt;/p&gt;

 In addition, on or before May&amp;#xA0;15, 2016, Sonic may redeem up to
 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 5.0% Notes at 105% of
 the par value of the 5.0% Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest
 with proceeds from certain equity offerings. On or before
 May&amp;#xA0;15, 2018, Sonic may redeem all or a part of the aggregate
 principal amount of the 5.0% Notes at a redemption price equal to
 100% of the principal amount of the 5.0% Notes redeemed plus an
 applicable premium (as defined in the Indenture) and any accrued
 and unpaid interest as of the redemption date. The indenture also
 provides that holders of the 5.0% Notes may require Sonic to
 repurchase the 5.0% Notes at 101% of the par value of the 5.0%
 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if Sonic undergoes a
 change of control, as defined in the indenture.&lt;/p&gt;

 The indenture governing the 5.0% Notes contains certain specified
 restrictive covenants. Sonic has agreed not to pledge any assets to
 any third party lender of senior subordinated debt except under
 certain limited circumstances. Sonic also has agreed to certain
 other limitations or prohibitions concerning the incurrence of
 other indebtedness, guarantees, liens, certain types of
 investments, certain transactions with affiliates, mergers,
 consolidations, issuance of preferred stock, cash dividends to
 stockholders, distributions, redemptions and the sale, assignment,
 lease, conveyance or disposal of certain assets. Specifically, the
 indenture governing Sonic&amp;#x2019;s 5.0% Notes limits Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 ability to pay quarterly cash dividends on Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 Class&amp;#xA0;A and B common stock in excess of $0.10 per share. Sonic
 may only pay quarterly cash dividends on Sonic&amp;#x2019;s Class&amp;#xA0;A
 and B common stock if Sonic complies with the terms of the
 indenture governing the 5.0% Notes. Sonic was in compliance with
 all restrictive covenants as of September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="TEXT-TRANSFORM: none; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; FONT: 10pt &apos;Times New Roman&apos;; WHITE-SPACE: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; LETTER-SPACING: normal; COLOR: rgb(0,0,0); WORD-SPACING: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px"&gt;
 Sonic&amp;#x2019;s obligations under the 5.0% Notes may be accelerated
 by the holders of 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the
 5.0% Notes then outstanding if certain events of default occur,
 including: (1)&amp;#xA0;defaults in the payment of principal or
 interest when due; (2)&amp;#xA0;defaults in the performance, or breach,
 of Sonic&amp;#x2019;s covenants under the 5.0% Notes; and
 (3)&amp;#xA0;certain defaults under other agreements under which Sonic
 or its subsidiaries have outstanding indebtedness in excess of
 $50.0 million.&lt;/p&gt;

 In addition, on or before July&amp;#xA0;15, 2015, Sonic may redeem up
 to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 7.0% Notes at 107%
 of the par value of the 7.0% Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest
 with proceeds from certain equity offerings. On or before
 July&amp;#xA0;15, 2017, Sonic may redeem all or a part of the aggregate
 principal amount of the 7.0% Notes at a redemption price equal to
 100% of the principal amount of the 7.0% Notes redeemed plus an
 applicable premium (as defined in the Indenture) and any accrued
 and unpaid interest as of the redemption date. The indenture also
 provides that holders of the 7.0% Notes may require Sonic to
 repurchase the 7.0% Notes at 101% of the par value of the 7.0%
 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if Sonic undergoes a
 change of control, as defined in the indenture.&lt;/p&gt;

 The indenture governing the 7.0% Notes contains certain specified
 restrictive covenants. Sonic has agreed not to pledge any assets to
 any third party lender of senior subordinated debt except under
 certain limited circumstances. Sonic also has agreed to certain
 other limitations or prohibitions concerning the incurrence of
 other indebtedness, guarantees, liens, certain types of
 investments, certain transactions with affiliates, mergers,
 consolidations, issuance of preferred stock, cash dividends to
 stockholders, distributions, redemptions and the sale, assignment,
 lease, conveyance or disposal of certain assets. Specifically, the
 indenture governing Sonic&amp;#x2019;s 7.0% Notes limits Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 ability to pay quarterly cash dividends on Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 Class&amp;#xA0;A and B common stock in excess of $0.10 per share. Sonic
 may only pay quarterly cash dividends on Sonic&amp;#x2019;s Class&amp;#xA0;A
 and B common stock if Sonic complies with the terms of the
 indenture governing the 7.0% Notes. Sonic was in compliance with
 all restrictive covenants as of September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;

 Sonic&amp;#x2019;s obligations under the 7.0% Notes may be accelerated
 by the holders of 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the
 7.0% Notes then outstanding if certain events of default occur,
 including: (1)&amp;#xA0;defaults in the payment of principal or
 interest when due; (2)&amp;#xA0;defaults in the performance, or breach,
 of Sonic&amp;#x2019;s covenants under the 7.0% Notes; and
 (3)&amp;#xA0;certain defaults under other agreements under which Sonic
 or its subsidiaries have outstanding indebtedness in excess of
 $35.0 million.&lt;/p&gt;

 During the second quarter ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2013, Sonic
 repurchased all of its outstanding 9.0% Notes using net proceeds
 from the issuance of the 5.0% Notes. Sonic paid approximately
 $237.2 million in cash, including accrued and unpaid interest, to
 extinguish the 9.0% Notes and recognized a loss of approximately
 $28.2 million on the repurchase of the 9.0% Notes, recorded in
 other income (expense), net, in the accompanying Unaudited
 Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. In addition to the
 loss on debt extinguishment, Sonic incurred a charge of
 approximately $0.8 million recorded in interest expense, other,
 net, related to the incremental interest incurred while both the
 9.0% Notes and the 5.0% Notes were outstanding.&lt;/p&gt;

 Sonic has mortgage financing totaling approximately $240.3 million
 in aggregate, related to 25 of its dealership properties. These
 mortgage notes require monthly payments of principal and interest
 through maturity and are secured by the underlying properties.
 Maturity dates range between August 2014 and September 2033. The
 weighted average interest rate was 4.09% at September&amp;#xA0;30,
 2013.&lt;/p&gt;

 Sonic has interest rate cash flow swap agreements (the &amp;#x201C;Cash
 Flow Swaps&amp;#x201D;) to effectively convert a portion of its
 LIBOR-based variable rate debt to a fixed rate. The fair value of
 these swap positions at September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 was a net liability
 of approximately $20.3 million, with $11.6 million included in
 other accrued liabilities and $11.7 million included in other
 long-term liabilities, offset partially by an asset of
 approximately $3.0 million included in other assets in the
 accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The
 fair value of these swap positions at December&amp;#xA0;31, 2012 was a
 liability of approximately $34.3 million, with $12.1 million
 included in other accrued liabilities and $22.2 million included in
 other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed
 Consolidated Balance Sheets.&lt;/p&gt;

 During the second quarter ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2013, Sonic entered
 into three forward-starting interest rate cash flow swap agreements
 with notional amounts of $200.0 million, $50.0 million and $250.0
 million. These swap agreements become effective in July
 2015,&amp;#xA0;July 2016 and July 2017, respectively, and terminate in
 July 2016,&amp;#xA0;July 2017 and June 2018, respectively. These
 interest rate swaps have been designated and qualify as cash flow
 hedges and, as a result, changes in the fair value of these swaps
 are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss), net of related
 income taxes, in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated
 Statements of Comprehensive Income.&lt;/p&gt;

 For the Cash Flow Swaps that qualify as cash flow hedges, the
 changes in the fair value of these swaps have been recorded in
 other comprehensive income (loss), net of related income taxes, in
 the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of
 Comprehensive Income and are disclosed in the supplemental schedule
 of non-cash financing activities in the accompanying Unaudited
 Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The incremental
 interest expense (the difference between interest paid and interest
 received) related to these Cash Flow Swaps was approximately $3.0
 million and $8.8 million in the third quarter and nine-month
 periods ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013, respectively, and $3.4
 million and $10.3 million in the third quarter and nine-month
 periods ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2012, respectively, and is
 included in interest expense, other, net, in the accompanying
 Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The
 estimated expense (net of tax) expected to be reclassified out of
 accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into results of
 operations during the next twelve months is approximately $7.2
 million. See Note&amp;#xA0;10, &amp;#x201C;Accumulated Other Comprehensive
 Income (Loss),&amp;#x201D; for further discussion of the impact of the
 Cash Flow Swaps on accumulated other comprehensive income
 (loss).&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;9. Fair Value Measurements&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 In determining fair value, Sonic uses various valuation approaches
 including market, income and/or cost approaches. &amp;#x201C;Fair Value
 Measurements and Disclosures&amp;#x201D; in the ASC establishes a
 hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes
 the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable
 inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when
 available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants
 would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on
 market data obtained from sources independent of Sonic.
 Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in
 pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best
 information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken
 down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as
 follows:&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 4%; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 Level 1 &amp;#x2013; Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets
 for identical assets or liabilities that Sonic has the ability to
 access. Assets utilizing Level 1 inputs include marketable
 securities that are actively traded.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 4%; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 Level 2 &amp;#x2013; Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that
 are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable,
 either directly or indirectly. Assets and liabilities utilizing
 Level 2 inputs include cash flow swap instruments and deferred
 compensation plan balances.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 4%; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 Level 3 &amp;#x2013; Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable
 and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Asset and
 liability measurements utilizing Level 3 inputs include those used
 in estimating fair value of non-financial assets and non-financial
 liabilities in purchase acquisitions, those used in assessing
 impairment of property, plant and equipment and other intangibles
 and those used in the reporting unit valuation in the annual
 goodwill impairment evaluation.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 The availability of observable inputs can vary and is affected by a
 wide variety of factors. To the extent that valuation is based on
 models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the
 market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment.
 Accordingly, the degree of judgment required by Sonic in
 determining fair value is greatest for assets and liabilities
 categorized in Level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to
 measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value
 hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the
 fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is
 disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input (Level 3
 being the lowest level) that is significant to the fair value
 measurement.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the
 perspective of a market participant who holds the asset or owes the
 liability rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, even
 when market assumptions are not readily available, Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants
 would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement
 date. Sonic uses inputs that are current as of the measurement
 date, including during periods when the market may be abnormally
 high or abnormally low. Accordingly, fair value measurements can be
 volatile based on various factors that may or may not be within
 Sonic&amp;#x2019;s control.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 12px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 1px"&gt;

 As of September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 and December&amp;#xA0;31, 2012, there
 were no Level 1 or Level 3 assets or liabilities recorded at fair
 value in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance
 Sheets. Level 2 assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in
 the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as

 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Acquisitions&amp;#xA0;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;#x2013;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;#xA0;The
 aggregate purchase price for franchise operations and underlying
 assets, including real estate, acquired during the third quarter
 ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 totaled approximately $88.2 million
 in cash, net of cash acquired. These cash outflows were funded by
 cash from operations and borrowings under Sonic&amp;#x2019;s floor plan
 facilities. The balance sheet as of September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013
 includes preliminary allocations of the purchase price of these
 acquisitions to the assets and liabilities acquired based on their
 estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition and are
 subject to final adjustment, principally related to the
 finalization of the dealership valuations. As a result of these
 allocations, Sonic has recorded the following related to 2013
 acquisitions:&lt;/p&gt;

 The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents a
 summary of consolidated results from continuing operations as if
 all of the 2013 acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of 2012,
 after giving effect to certain adjustments, including interest
 expense on acquisition debt and related income tax effects. The pro
 forma financial information does not give effect to adjustments
 relating to net changes in floor plan interest expense resulting
 from renegotiated floor plan financing agreements or to reductions
 in salaries and fringe benefits of former owners or officers of
 acquired dealerships who have not been retained by Sonic or whose
 salaries have been reduced pursuant to employment agreements with
 Sonic. The pro forma results have been prepared for comparative
 purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results of
 operations that would have occurred had the 2013 acquisitions
 actually been completed at the beginning of the periods presented.
 The pro forma results are also not necessarily indicative of the
 results of future operations.&lt;/p&gt;

 Lease exit charges recorded during the third quarter and nine-month
 periods ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 and 2012 relate to interest
 charges and the revision of estimates on previously established
 lease exit accruals. The lease exit accruals represent the present
 value of the lease payments, net of estimated or actual sublease
 proceeds, for the remaining life of the operating leases and other
 accruals necessary to satisfy the lease commitment to the
 landlord.&lt;/p&gt;

 accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 and 2012 have been prepared in accordance
 with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (&amp;#x201C;U.S.
 GAAP&amp;#x201D;) for interim financial information and applicable rules
 and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
 (&amp;#x201C;SEC&amp;#x201D;). All material intercompany accounts and

 management, all material normal recurring adjustments necessary to
 fairly state the financial position and the results of operations
 for the periods presented. The results for interim periods are not
 necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire
 fiscal year, because the first quarter normally contributes less
 operating profit than the second, third and fourth quarters. These
 interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
 audited Consolidated Financial Statements of Sonic Automotive, Inc.

 The calculation of diluted earnings per share considers the
 potential dilutive effect of options and shares under Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 stock compensation plans and the 5.0% Convertible Senior Notes due
 2029 (the &amp;#x201C;5.0% Convertible Notes&amp;#x201D;), which were
 extinguished in August 2012. Sonic&amp;#x2019;s non-vested restricted
 stock and certain of its non-vested restricted stock units contain
 rights to receive &lt;font style="WHITE-SPACE: nowrap"&gt;non-forfeitable&lt;/font&gt; dividends, and thus,
 are considered participating securities and are included in the
 two-class method of computing earnings per share.&lt;/p&gt;

 accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 for the third quarter and nine-month periods ended
 September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 and 2012 have been prepared in accordance
 with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (&amp;#x201C;U.S.
 GAAP&amp;#x201D;) for interim financial information and applicable rules
 and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
 (&amp;#x201C;SEC&amp;#x201D;). All material intercompany accounts and
 transactions have been eliminated. These Unaudited Condensed
 Consolidated Financial Statements reflect, in the opinion of
 management, all material normal recurring adjustments necessary to
 fairly state the financial position and the results of operations
 for the periods presented. The results for interim periods are not
 necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire
 fiscal year, because the first quarter normally contributes less
 operating profit than the second, third and fourth quarters. These
 interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
 audited Consolidated Financial Statements of Sonic Automotive, Inc.
 (&amp;#x201C;Sonic&amp;#x201D; or the &amp;#x201C;Company&amp;#x201D;) for the year
 ended December&amp;#xA0;31, 2012, which were included in Sonic&amp;#x2019;s
 Annual Report on Form 10-K.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Recent Accounting Pronouncements&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#x2013;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; In February 2013, the Financial Accounting
 Standards Board (the &amp;#x201C;FASB&amp;#x201D;) issued an accounting
 standard update that amended the reporting requirements for amounts
 reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by
 component. An entity is required to present, either on the face of
 the statement where net income is presented or in the notes to the
 financial statements, significant amounts reclassified out of
 accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items
 of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under
 U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the
 same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required to
 be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is
 required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide
 additional detail about those amounts. The amendments in this
 accounting standard update are to be applied prospectively and are
 effective for interim and annual periods beginning after
 December&amp;#xA0;15, 2012. See Note 10, &amp;#x201C;Accumulated Other
 Comprehensive Income (Loss),&amp;#x201D; for the impact of this
 accounting standard update on Sonic&amp;#x2019;s required
 disclosures.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Change in Accounting Principle&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#x2013;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
 During the quarter ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013, Sonic voluntarily
 changed the date of its annual goodwill impairment test and other
 intangible assets impairment test from the last day of the fiscal
 year to the first day of the fourth quarter. This voluntary change
 is preferable under the circumstances as it provides Sonic with
 additional time to prepare and complete the impairment test,
 including measurement of any indicated impairment of goodwill or
 other intangible assets, as necessary, prior to filing of the Form
 10-K. This voluntary change in accounting principle was not made to
 delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge. This change is not
 applied retrospectively as it is impracticable to do so because
 retrospective application would require the application of
 significant estimates and assumptions with the use of hindsight.
 Accordingly, the change will be applied prospectively.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;
 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Lease Exit Accruals &amp;#x2013;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Lease exit accruals
 relate to facilities Sonic has ceased using in its operations. The
 accruals represent the present value of the lease payments, net of
 estimated or actual sublease proceeds, for the remaining life of
 the operating leases and other accruals necessary to satisfy the
 lease commitment to the landlord. A summary of the activity of
 these operating lease exit accruals consists of the following:&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Income Tax Expense &amp;#x2013;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; The overall effective tax
 rate from continuing operations was 36.3% and 37.8% for the third
 quarter and nine-month periods ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013,
 respectively, and 38.6% and 34.8% for the third quarter and
 nine-month periods ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2012, respectively. The
 effective rate for the third quarter ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013
 was lower than the prior year period as a result of the favorable
 resolution of previously outstanding tax matters. The effective
 rate for the nine-month period ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013 was
 higher than the prior year period primarily due to a $3.6 million
 tax benefit during the second quarter ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2012
 related to the settlement of a state tax examination. Sonic expects
 the effective tax rate for continuing operations in future
 quarterly periods to fall within a range of 38.0% to 40.0%.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Change in Accounting Principle&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;#x2013;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
 During the quarter ended September&amp;#xA0;30, 2013, Sonic voluntarily
 changed the date of its annual goodwill impairment test and other
 intangible assets impairment test from the last day of the fiscal
 year to the first day of the fourth quarter. This voluntary change
 is preferable under the circumstances as it provides Sonic with
 additional time to prepare and complete the impairment test,
 including measurement of any indicated impairment of goodwill or
 other intangible assets, as necessary, prior to filing of the Form
 10-K. This voluntary change in accounting principle was not made to
 delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge. This change is not
 applied retrospectively as it is impracticable to do so because
 retrospective application would require the application of
 significant estimates and assumptions with the use of hindsight.
 Accordingly, the change will be applied prospectively.&lt;/p&gt;
