Fleet Direct has been a successful auto brokerage in the Orange County area for many years. We are family owned and operated, and thus our approach is extremely personable. Our unique service has saved thousands of customers valued time and money. Using many combined years of management experience in the automotive industry, we insure customers a stress-free and pleasant vehicle lease or purchase transaction. As an Auto Brokerage, it is our responsibility to provide our customers the best and most comprehensive deal on any make or model vehicle. We take pride in our ability to keep the negotiations and “back and forth” haggle completely out of the equation. Our prices are better than Cars Direct, Costco, and AAA, and this is due in part to the strong relationships we have maintained with hundreds of automotive dealers throughout all of California. Let us do all the hard work for you using this vast network of dealer relationships! Our business has flourished due to our ability to build and maintain trust through a commitment for honesty, and our integrity to strive for perfection in what we do. These elements of a sales relationship are unmatched by your day-to-day dealer sales representatives or even fleet and internet sales managers. A vehicle purchase represents a large financial investment. With any large investment, both security and trust are essential ingredients when dealing with the purchase transaction. Take advantage of our integrity and knowledge. Think of us when you’re in the market to buy or lease your next new or used vehicle. Fleet Direct Auto Brokers Inc. is also a proud member of the Better Business Bureau. The pride is in our perfect rating! My name is Rami Baroudi, and I have loved cars my whole life… I have always had a passion for anything automotive. Since I was a young boy my collection of Hot Wheels and Micro Machines was larger and more impressive than all others. At the age of seventeen I started collecting rare die-cast replicas of my favorite cars. My first model car was a 1957 Ferrari “Testa Rosa” or the Red Head. My collection now spans more than a century of automotive racing and design (most of this collection is proudly displayed in our office). It would be very difficult to find someone more committed to loving automobiles. They are my life! I began working as a car salesman in 1998 for Nabers Cadillac in Costa Mesa. At the same time I was a full-time student at the University of California, Irvine. From Nabers I became one of the youngest salesmen to work for Fletcher Jones Mercedes-Benz in Newport Beach. This was an accomplishment for me at the time. However, it was not my destiny. In 2004, I graduated from U.C.I. with a major in Social Science, and a minor in Economics. College gave me the knowledge to be able to work for myself. My drive and ambition gave me the motivation to risk everything and start my own business. Fleet Direct is my greatest accomplishment! I take pride in the service I provide. Know that I am not your average car salesman, I never was. Creating an Auto Brokerage enabled me to sell all makes and models. I am no longer bound to the manufacturer I work for. I have no boundaries, and thus no bias. I have sold everything from a Pontiac Aztec to a Porsche Carrera GT! I started this business with the goal to change the way people feel about buying cars. It shouldn’t be dreadful. If you could only see how excited I get when I buy a new vehicle. It’s fun because I have learned how to take the hassle out of the equation. It’s fun because I deal with dealerships/people I trust. And there is nothing more satisfying than knowing you got a great deal on the car of your dreams. Try it sometime. Call me, I guarantee you’ll love the feeling too... Dream Car: 1988 Ferrari F40 My name is Edward Chen, and if there is one thing I love, it is the automobile! I can remember spending hours alone as a little boy playing with my bucket of hot wheels. It's no wonder I'm fascinated with just about every aspect of the automotive world. I recently graduated from Soka University of America with a Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts. Being a part of the Fleet Direct family is a great opportunity for me. The transition was very natural as I work alongside people that love cars just as much as me. As the youngest member of the Fleet Direct team I believe my knowledge of automobile sales and leasing grows daily. I am very fortunate to be working with some of the most capable and service-friendly people in the industry. Buying a car is a big investment for many people and the process can be exhausting. Know that it doesn't have to be. Let us do all the hard work for you… Dream Car: 1965 Aston Martin DB5 My name is Drew Polenchar, and I have been a part of the automotive world since my late teens. With the intentions of practicing medicine, I tried out retail sales in the automotive industry right out of high school for a summer job. Needless to say, I quickly realized my passion for automobiles and people were a perfect fit and I was able to excel in the Automotive Retail Industry. I quickly grew out of my first dealership and moved on to Commonwealth VW & Audi in Santa Ana where I spent nearly the last decade before joining Fleet Direct Auto Brokers, Inc. Being familiar with the “Car Culture” in California I wanted to be able to continue my relationships with my clients outside of the VW & Audi realm. Fleet Direct Auto Brokers Inc. is a tool for me to meet my client’s needs in the automotive world and maintain the relationships I worked so hard to create. I pride myself on being knowledgeable about automobiles and understanding my clients. In the end, I provide the perfect package. For those who know me, they would say that I’m full of wit, love to laugh and more importantly have FUN! Buying or leasing a vehicle should be the way I live my life. I strive to make the experience fun and easy. My ultimate goal is to get a smile out of you… Dream Car: 2007 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano F1
