 FEATURED CAR

About Us & Our History

It was 1904 when we started out the Bay City Auto Company, the first Cadillac dealership in the world, also the first (and last) independent Cadillac distributor. Four locations later, after World War II, we became Mitchell Cadillac in honor to the founders. In 2005, the fourth generation Mitchell-Cotten family returned to its roots and The Bay City Motor Company began selling classic cars. For more about our history, click here.

Today, blocks from where we started we sell the cool cars that our fathers and grandfathers sold new. We locate, buy, sell, and trade classic automobiles world-wide. Located in Michigan's largest antique district, we have thousands of visitors each month. If you are looking for a fun getaway, come visit us, pick out your favorite car, check out our gift shop, and the local shopping and events. For more information on our town, click here.

Service & Restoration

We have a team of classic-certified mechanics that inspect our vehicles and make the repairs needed to provide the buyer a surprise free ownership experience.

All our cars go through our detail shop; which cleans, conditions, protects, and revitalizes the vehicles making them show ready for you! Occasionally, we find a project car with promise. Then. we turn our expert restorers loose, and they turn it into a show car.

Thanks to these teams, we can proudly offer Service Agreements on our vehicles, that will protect you from unexpected repairs. For more information on our Service Agreements, click here.

Hum, cash or credit?  We've all asked that question hundreds of times!  Well, you can take ownership of many of our vehicles with as little as 10% down on loans with terms up to 12 years!  Some of our clients choose to lease these special vehicles.

If financing a portion of your purchase is best for you, the following links may be helpful.  You may also want to consider your local Credit Union.  Many times, these organizations will match the loan terms and your payments support your community.
