Former Major League Baseball pitcher C.J. Wilson, a two-time All-Star, broke ground Wednesday on his new Audi, BMW, and Porsche dealership in Clovis.

The 15-acre luxury auto campus at the southwest corner of Clovis and Herndon avenues will allow for a state-of-the-art showroom, expanded service center, and the possibility of future brands, Wilson said in a news release.

“We are excited to bridge our passion for luxury automobiles to the Clovis community,” Wilson said. “Expanding is essential. The growth we’ve created together with our clients requires a brand-new, world-class facility — and it’s perfect timing. With each manufacturer updating their branding and facilities, we’ll have the most state-of-the-art showrooms and double our collective service capacity. This project is deeply personal, and I’m proud that it’s right here in the Central Valley.”

Dealership to Be Completed in 2026

The three new dealerships will be built according to the carmakers’ standards. The biggest improvement will be in the service facility, Wilson previously told GV Wire. The new service center will be twice the size of the current location at Palm and Herndon avenues.

In a Facebook post, Clovis Mayor Vong Mouanoutoua said the new dealership will be a boon for Clovis considering the sales tax revenue and employment opportunities.

“We are so thrilled that CJ chose Clovis to relocate his businesses and build the best Porsche, Audi, and BMW dealerships in the state,” Mouanoutoua said in a social media post. “These dealerships will bring good paying jobs, sales tax revenue to our city, and significant investment to this commercial corridor.”

The dealership is expected to be completed sometime in 2026.
