Gulfway Imports (Houston, TX) — lot visit notes

Condition Desk ·

Yard report from Houston, TX: Gulfway Imports runs about 93 vehicles, weighted toward import cars. Dealer permit posted at the office window; checked against the state board and it is current, roughly 11 years on the books.

Lot address: 1367 Commerce Ave, Houston, TX. Visitor parking: Front-lot customer stalls facing the office; overflow on the side street near Houston lot gate.

  • Doc fee: $249, printed on the buyer's order — not a surprise line at signing.
  • Pre-purchase inspection allowed on their lift or off-site — no pushback.
  • Titles: staff says about 83% of units have title in hand; they showed the folder when asked.
  • Coverage: no warranty — as-is, but any inspection welcome.

Lane verdict: legitimate operation. Fee sheet matched the quote, title work was clean, and the import cars inventory was priced inside auction-plus-recon math. Would bid against them and lose happily.

Useful report. For anyone going: call ahead, their best import cars units move within the week.
