Meet Our Owner

  • Dave Banazek, Owner at DART Auto in Denver, CO

    Dave Banazek

    Owner

    Dave Banazek started DART Auto in 2000 with his partner Art Schuster.
    Dave had a background in sales and business, and Art had an
    engineering background. Dave & Art were very active in the Porsche club
    and driver education events and racing. Both were car nuts having
    owned, rebuilt, modified all sorts of cars. Starting as a Porsche used
    parts business, they expanded into Porsche car sales, racing services and
    Porsche maintenance.

    In 2005 Dave was looking to expand the service business. Art went on to
    pursue other endeavors and Dave purchased the current location for DART Auto. Initially only servicing Porsche street and race cars, DART quickly expanded to service all makes of European cars. DART hired factory trained technicians with extensive experience servicing on Porsche, Volkswagen, Audi, BMW, Mini Cooper, Mercedes-Benz and Land Rover. A heavy investment was made to acquire the factory tools necessary to diagnose and repair these sophisticated vehicles.

    Dave continues to be involved in local car club events, motorcycles and
    all sorts of cars.

    Dart Auto takes excellent care of my Mini! They go through the engine and let me know what needs to be done and why. I keep going back to them because their prices are reasonable and they really care about their work. I recommend them to all my friends.

    Excellent service at the last minute! Two days before a big temperature drop, my wife's mini had a dead battery. Dart got us in the next day, checked electrical, and replaced the battery. All for a reasonable price.
