Welcome to the LaFontaine Family

LaFontaine Buick GMC Ann Arbor proudly welcomes you into Michigan's most trusted automotive legacy and family. Our dealership has served the community for over 25 years, but our impact on the local automotive landscape is far more extensive. Today, we're honored to welcome you into that heritage and share our story of bringing "The Family Deal" to drivers across the state since the 1980s.

Our Story

LaFontaine Buick GMC Ann Arbor is one of over 50 dealerships operated by the prestigious LaFontaine Automotive Group. In 1980, Michael and Maureen Fontaine saw an opportunity to build an incredible family legacy and positively impact their community when they opened their first dealership in Dearborn. The couple was determined to redefine the traditional dealership experience and offer customers and their employees something unique—a personalized experience defined by integrity, passion, and respect.

That approach is known today as the LaFontaine Family Deal and is at the heart of everything we do. For Michael and Maureen, business isn't solely about selling cars but making everyone feel like family; they envisioned and built a legacy of dealerships dedicated to serving the community and offering opportunities for professional and personal growth and development. That legacy has forever changed Michigan's automotive landscape, from the customers who walk through our doors to the individuals who make up the LaFontaine team.

Today, LaFontaine Buick GMC Ann Arbor is honored to continue that legacy and The Family Deal. In doing so, we've earned national recognition for our personalized approach, including honors like the 2022 Dealer of the Year and Mark of Excellence awards. More importantly, we've earned the trust of drivers throughout Michigan, who know they're in capable hands with any LaFontaine franchise, collision center, or retail location across the state.
