The
Heffner automotive story begins in 1960 when Mr. John Heffner Sr. opened
shop on a small repair garage on Breithaupt Street in Kitchener. By
1962, the business moved to King Street East, across from
Rockway Gardens, where it was located for 25 years.
In 1987 John Heffner & his sons, Willy Heffner & John Heffner Jr.,
moved to their current, location. Heffner Toyota changed its name in
1990 to Heffner Lexus Toyota, welcoming the addition of Toyota's new
line of luxury automobiles, the Lexus.
Since its inception in 1960, Heffner Motors Ltd. has grown to include a
state of the art, full-service Collision Centre, Vehicle Reconditioning & Detailing Centre, & in-house leasing, as well as all of the
regular departments found in any full service dealership, such as vehicle sales (both
new & used), parts & service.
The Heffner Family have taken steps to provide outstanding customer care, are
committed to giving back to the community, and offer rewards and
recognition to their employees that aren't often seen in other
dealerships.
Heffner Lexus/Heffner Toyota has grown substantially since 2004, in
large part due to the needs of our immediate community ? Kitchener,
Waterloo, Cambridge and Guelph ? our guests and staff. In October 2004
we opened a 12,500 square foot used vehicle showroom, in September 2005
we moved into our 65,000 square foot Toyota dealership and in July of
2006 we moved the Lexus dealership to their 24,000 square foot building.
We have grown from 42,000 sq ft to approximately 132,000 sq ft. and are
now working out of four different buildings spread over 16 acres of
land. The new Collision Centre opened its doors on November 5, 2011 to
serve your needs.
