In fact, we were one of the original seven Mercedes-Benz franchises in the country. Since then we have expanded and now we have two great dealerships that serve all of Southern Florida. We are a third generation family-owned auto group with a Mercedes-Benz location in Cutler Bay and one in Coral Gables. We can provide Mercedes-Benz vehicles and service to Miami, Miami Beach, Wynwood, South Miami, Kendall, Pinecrest, Palmetto Bay, Cutler Bay, Homestead, and all the surrounding areas including the Florida Keys. We have a huge selection of both new and used Mercedes-Benz models. We also carry smart and MB Vans. Our Coral Gables location is an AMG Performance Center. In addition to our new and used vehicles, we also have full service centers at each of our locations, and we even have an Elite Certified Collision Center right near our Cutler Bay location in Miami. If you need a Mercedes-Benz vehicle, parts, service, or bodywork, you can rely on the team at Bill Ussery Motors.
