Built From the Service Bay Forward
We Did Not Start as a Dealership.
We Became One Because Our Clients Asked Us To.
HBi Auto started in 2016 when Billy Wenk and a small group of
car enthusiasts began building and restoring project cars in
his father’s backyard. Within three months, the team moved
into its first shop with one clear focus: become the place
Porsche and exotic-car owners could trust with the cars most
shops did not truly understand.
The business grew by solving the problems our clients were
already experiencing. We introduced complimentary enclosed
pickup and delivery to make specialized service easier to
access. We added an in-house detailing and protection
department so paint correction, XPEL PPF, ceramic coating,
and final presentation could be completed to the same
standard as the mechanical work.
Then we began seeing the same pattern repeatedly: clients
would purchase a Porsche or exotic elsewhere and immediately
bring it to HBi for an inspection, overdue service, or repairs
that should have been handled before the car was sold.
Eventually, they began asking us:
“If you are the ones we trust to inspect, service, and
prepare these cars, why do we have to buy them somewhere else?”
That question became the foundation of HBi Auto’s sales
program. Instead of operating like a traditional used-car
dealership, we built the process around what we already knew:
carefully select the car, inspect it thoroughly, complete the
necessary service and reconditioning in-house, protect it,
support it with meaningful warranty coverage, and make the
purchase and delivery process simple for clients nationwide.
As we grew, we created 911 Buyers so we could
source more vehicles directly from enthusiasts rather than
relying only on wholesale auctions. That gives us a better
opportunity to understand a vehicle’s ownership history,
acquire higher-quality inventory, and prepare each car for
the next owner with fewer compromises.
Our goal has never been to offer the cheapest Porsche or
exotic on the internet.
It is to deliver a properly selected, serviced, protected,
and supported vehicle that a busy enthusiast can buy with
confidence.
