Before we tell you about ourselves, let’s start with you. You’re probably looking for a car-buying experience that is easy, convenient, and affordable. So how can we help you accomplish that? How can we minimize the disruption that is required when purchasing or servicing your vehicle? How can we make these activities not just tolerable, but enjoyable? We ask ourselves these questions daily, and while our execution isn’t always perfect, we strive to find answers we think you’ll like.
Panama City Toyota is a family-owned company that has operated under substantially the same ownership for over 25 years. We have significant ties to the community, and believe it is our obligation to make Bay County—really the entire Florida Panhandle—a better place to live.
Although family has tenure in the community and in the automotive business, the current leadership probably has more experience as an automotive customers than as an automotive operators. Hopefully this causes us to see everything through a “customer lens,” and keeps us from ever forgetting that unfamiliarity can be intimidating. We strive to eliminate that feeling.
An early tagline for the dealership was the recognizable phrase, “Where Relationships are Born.” While this may not always be used in the dealership’s current advertising, the sentiment remains. Here, our team recognizes it’s not about us, but instead it’s about you, the customer. You are the main character of the story and we are here simply to guide you into the perfect vehicle to accomplish your goals.
In addition to the sale of new and outstanding Toyota vehicles, Panama City Toyota also offers high quality pre-owned vehicles. These include not only Toyota certified used vehicles, but also pre-owned vehicles of many other domestic and foreign brands. Virtually all brands can beserviced inside our award winning service department. An outstanding parts and accessories departments also strives to meet your various needs.
We sincerely hope you desire to become and continue to be part of our extended family.

Traded in a 2009 Venza for a 2013 Venza. The Dealer's values for both the trade-in and new vehicle (MSRP and Invoice) matched what I had researched through Kelly Blue Book, Edmunds, Consumer Reports, etc values for both the trade-in and new vehicle (MSRP and Invoice) matched what I had researched through Kelly Blue Book, Edmunds, Consumer Reports, etc. James and Brandon were open regarding pricing and, in my opinion, very fair in negotiating the deal. Brandon was excellent in having the new vehicle prepared for pick-up and having all the paperwork ready to sign. More
