The change, announced June 25, 2026, does not signal a shift in ownership, staffing, or daily management. The dealership will continue to operate from its established location at 11151 Highway 49, serving customers across Gulfport, Biloxi, and the surrounding region. General Manager Jeff Beard emphasized that the move is intended to provide a more consistent retail experience, leveraging the scale of the international automotive group to improve transparency and convenience for local drivers.
