About Mercedes-Benz of Coral Gables

Mercedes-Benz of Coral Gables dates back to 1953 when founder Bill Ussery opened a dealership that initially sold used cars and Studebakers.  A few years later, Ussery added the Mercedes-Benz line.  Bill Ussery Motors is one of the seven original Mercedes-Benz dealers in the United States and the oldest Mercedes-Benz dealership in Florida.  Then in 1974, Ussery sold the dealership to his son-in-law John Brockway Sr. and his daughter, Patricia – the second generation of family owners.  Bob Brockway joined the family business in 1986 as vice president and operations manager, and was named president in 1996. In 2006, he and wife Paula purchased the dealership from the family outright and Bob assumed the role of Chairman and CEO.  Brockway’s son Cole and daughter Madelaine have expressed an interest in running the dealership when they grow up.  So, it seems likely that a fourth-generation may continue the family’s service-oriented business tradition.

As a major supporter of South Florida’s civic, charitable and educational institutions, Bill Ussery Motors contributes to more than 30 non-profit organizations each year. The Brockways provide financial support and volunteer their time to help worthy organizations like the American Red Cross, Baptist Health System Foundation, CHARLEE Homes for Children, Community Partnership for Homeless, and Miami Science Museum.
