BENTONVILLE, Ark., June 12 -- America's Car-Mart, Inc. today announced the opening of its newest dealership located in Sedalia, Missouri. This new location marks the second dealership opening since the Company's current fiscal year began on May 1, 2006. The Company has also relocated and expanded its existing Lawton, Oklahoma location to upgrade it to a first-class Car-Mart dealership.

"This new Sedalia location is our tenth location in Missouri," commented T. J. ("Skip") Falgout, III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of America's Car Mart. "We are very excited about the location and prospect of this new store. Also, the expansion of our Lawton operation will give this seven-year old dealership a beautiful new facility with adequate size and roadside frontage to handle its continuing growth in sales and customers."

"Sedalia offers a great opportunity for Car-Mart," added William H. ("Hank") Henderson, President of America's Car Mart. "We are very happy to have Dave Watts as our new manager in Sedalia. Dave proved to be an effective Car-Mart assistant manager while he was at the Tulsa, Oklahoma location, and we are confident he will be successful in Sedalia. In addition, Mark Hughes, our manager in Lawton, should really be able to take his dealership to the next level with this superb facility."
