About Coastal Cars & Carts

We are Coastal Cars & Carts, a family-owned and operated business proudly serving Panama City Beach and the surrounding areas. Our roots run deep in family values, dedication, and a passion for helping others with exceptional service. Coastal Cars & Carts began with a vision-one fueled by Gary Ellis' family, community, and a love for all things automotive. After retiring as an industrial engineer, Gary saw an opportunity to make a difference in his community, providing reliable, high-quality golf carts backed by honest, dependable service. Alongside his wife Terri, he built the business on the foundation of hard work, integrity, and customer care. What started as a small family business quickly became a lasting legacy-one that his daughter Kate and nephew Matt have been part of since the very beginning. Working side by side with Gary, they helped shape Coastal Cars & Carts into what it is today, growing it from a vision into a trusted name in the community.
