Why Mobile buyers cross the bay.
Mobile has no shortage of car lots. People tell us they come over for the way they are treated.
We are a small, locally owned lot with an owner who has well over 27 years of experience on the Gulf Coast. No one rushes you, no one plays games, and the vehicle should be just as it was described when you called.
Local readers have voted us Best Car Dealership – Used in the Lagniappe Nappie Awards in 2026, 2025 and 2023, so you may have heard of us before you ever crossed the water.
If the car you want is not on our lot, you do not have to make the trip to find out. Tell us on our vehicle finder, and if we do not have it, we will find it.

Over the water, two ways.
Both end on US-98 in Daphne.
I-10 and the Bayway
Take I-10 east through the Wallace Tunnel and over the Bayway. Take the US-98 exit in Daphne, head south, and we are 1/2 mile down on the right at the 3rd traffic light.
The Causeway
If the tunnel is backed up, the Causeway (US-90/98) is the old way across. It is slower, with the seafood spots along the water. Follow US-98 into Daphne and on south, past I-10.
Call before you go
Tunnel traffic can be unpredictable, so call 251-625-2131 to set a time. We work by appointment and will have the vehicle ready.

Mobile buyers who made the drive.
Word for word, from Google and Facebook.
I have NEVER purchased a car so easily. I’m from West Mobile and drove across the bay to give them my business and I’ll do it again. Anyone looking for a car...this is a must see location. Honesty, Genuine, forth coming. These are words I’ve seldom associated with anyone selling a car. Adam was amazing to work with. The owner was equally, just as easy to talk with. If there were 10 stars, that’s just what they would get!!!
Seen a car i was interested in. So i emailed Ben about details. Told Ben, im driving 1hr and half to look at this car. Everything stated via email was exactly like it was when i showed up. No hidden fees, straight to the point. Nosales pitch. I believe we talked me on a personally level of hobbies,and etc. Then normal car salesman talk. Good people ROLL TIDE ROLL 🐘🐘
Hands down the best car buying experience I have ever had in my decades of buying cars. Thank you Fred for being so honest and nice. I had put off buying anything because I hate dealerships and the pressure that starts the minute you walk in the door. You will experience none of that when you work with Fred and Ben at Sports Center Imports.
