An automotive group built for the long term.
Privately held by founder and CEO Todd Blue, LAPIS brings long-term brand stewardship and personal customer relationships to six dealerships across California and Arizona.
Built around the relationship, not the transaction.
LAPIS represents distinctive automotive brands with a simple operating philosophy: choose carefully, align closely with manufacturers, and earn customer trust over time.
Our teams pair deep brand knowledge with high-touch service, creating ownership experiences that feel direct, informed, and personal.
Experience earned over decades. A vision focused on what comes next.
Todd Blue entered luxury automotive retail in 2010. Over the following decade, he grew his first group to 20 dealerships across ten brands, building a record of manufacturer partnership, award-winning operations, and enthusiast-led customer experiences.
After selling that business in 2020, Blue returned with LAPIS in 2023. The new group is intentionally focused: distinctive marques, direct relationships, and thoughtful growth built to last.
Six dealerships. One standard.
A focused portfolio across California and Arizona, united by a commitment to the brands, the people who represent them, and the customers who make the culture possible.
