Central City Toyota Celebrates Their 40th Anniversary


Forty years ago this March, Harry and Max Paul opened Central City Toyota in the heart of University City. The first showroom was in the front of Paul brothers auto body at 48th and Chestnut. Over the years the business grew and eventually moved to its own building right next to the body shop. Toyota has grown from a tiny gas sipping car company to a full line automotive giant - overtaking GM as the largest car maker in the world. Max Paul's car businesses mirror this growth after 40 years, going from a 1 car showroom to one of the largest Toyota dealerships in the area. The same guiding principles that made Toyota so successful - continuous improvement, there is no best, only better - have enabled Max to turn his fledgling car dealership into the home of over 150 employees and over 40,000 customers. With a year long celebration ahead of us to mark our 40th anniversary in the people business, look for ongoing specials and incentives. Just like Toyota advertised so long ago - Max continues to encourage his businesses to leave customers thinking, "I love what you do for me..."

Central City Toyota - A dealership that stands for integrity and excellence


The history of American business is full of hard-working entrepreneurial families who have put their hearts and their legacies into doing things right. This includes auto dealerships as well, and Central City Toyota is a perfect example. After 40 years in business and four generations to carry on their tradition of excellence, the results have been outstanding.

Historical background:

Paul Bros. Auto Body is one of only a few automobile collision specialists in existence for 100 years. Max Paul opened his first bicycle repair shop in 1905. The shop was renamed Lincoln Highway Garage in 1908. Business expanded and Max explored additional opportunities within the auto repair sector. After the First World War, there was a rise in automobile sales and Max's popularity had spread in Philadelphia. Max moved to a larger location at 3957 Baltimore Avenue in 1925 and offered different collision repair services.
America witnessed the Great Depression in the '30s. Max was forced to reorganize Lincoln Auto Body because of mounting bills and the loss of business due to poor economic conditions. Max had trained his sons, Edward and Harry, in the business. They combined all their assets, moved the business to 4738 Market Street and reopened with a new name "Paul Bros. Auto Body Rehabilitators" in 1931. By 1935, Paul Bros. was fully recovered from the devastating effects of the Depression. Seeing tremendous potential in automobile business, Harry and Max introduced Central City Toyota , the first Toyota agency in Philadelphia in March, 1969.

Why Central City Toyota:

Service excellence, integrity, devoted employees and loyal customers - these are among the many reasons you'll love Central City Toyota . This family-owned dealership has customers who come back car after car, generation after generation. Unlike dealerships with high staff turnover, its employees are dedicated members of the Central City Toyota family and they deliver nothing less than white-glove service to your vehicle and red-carpet service to you. Step in to our dealership located at 4800 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19139 and give us an opportunity to provide you with the service you deserve. You can also contact us at 1(888) 379-1155.
