Gracias.

Grammatically speaking, both are correct. However, both sound equally unusual to me. I would say something like "El nuevo coche me permite..." Since you are using the term used in Spain for car, you probably want to express yourself like someone would over there.

Thanks, Lazarus. This was just a sentence I concocted for an example. My core question is whether "facilitar + infinitive" is correct or if it should be "facilitar + el + infinitive" or "facilitar + a + infinitive," etc. - hhmdirocco, May 20, 2011

Since you are the one being facilitated in arrival, rather the arrival being facilitated, because of "me," the first variant is correct.

also llegar has a noun form " la llegada" rather than having to use the infinitive as a noun. - 0074b507, May 20, 2011
Makes sense, Julian; insightful. I'm hoping for several native speakers to concur, so I can be sure. - hhmdirocco, May 20, 2011

Las dos son correctas, si no me equivoco.
