Car-shark favorites Landmark Chevrolet — on I-45 North near Gulf Bank — and Bill Heard Chevrolet — on the Southwest Freeway at 90 in Sugar Land — are both closing as part of a nationwide 13-dealership shutdown orchestrated by the pair’s parent company, Bill Heard Enterprises, which is based in Georgia. The move should make a lot of former customers very happy.
Available soon: A few more of those 9.9-acre stormwater-special feeder-road concrete lots?

Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.
Since I don’t buy cars at dealerships, it won’t affect me directly. I lease through third party leasing groups (much cheaper for brand new than dealership leasing or buying, they get all the rebates and discounts for you).
Can anyone say massive skate park for the Landmark site?
I’m really saddened that these dealerships closed down, especially for the good and honest people that were working there that provided for the family. These were thriving dealerships that were top in the nation. Yes, there are people in sales that are sharks…but there salespeople that have integrity and know what it is to have great relationships. Moreover, there were people that worked in finance, service, parts, lot people, janitors, mechanics…etc. that all lost their careers that supported their families. This affects plenty of third party vendors also who again have families to support.
This is just my take. Of course, everyone has a right to make their own opinions.
they deserved it, that place was a scam
I almost bought a camaro there. Upon my return of a test drive the salesman upped the down payment a thousand dollars.i just handed the keys back and kissed that car goodbye,he wasnt goin to sucker me.i have the camaro i wanted now and was alot cheaper.glad their gone they wont be missed. ;)
