Jose Romero

Sales Manager

Jose Romero began his career in sales at the very young age of fifteen. While still attending High School, he excelled as a traveling power tool salesman for a heavy equipment rental company. From the start, he implemented new sales strategies such as selling packaged “specials” instead of individual items and while working part time he began to immediately sell more than his fulltime colleagues. After graduating High School his entrepreneur spirit led him to start a successful mobile auto detailing business, it was this venture that would spark his passion for collector cars.

As an original member of the DriverSource team Jose’s attention to detail, exceptional customer service, and sales skills became evident to the principals and management, and was eventually asked to join the sales department. Again, he would thrive in this position to become the sales manager after only two years. Under his leadership, DriverSource Fine Motorcars’ sales department has become a force within the collector car community both nationally and internationally. His dedication and integrity have helped him build strong partnerships with other leading dealers and auction houses and he has been responsible for bringing some of the rarest and most desirable cars to market including various collections and estate offerings. In 2017 Sport Car Market recognized him in their 40 Under 40 issue as a key player in the collector car world. Always in pursuit and with a growing knowledge in his field, Jose is constantly evolving and brainstorming strategies with his team to grow a fundamentally strong company as well as expanding on his strong relationships with others in the industry.

Steve Ott

Service Manager

Steve Ott began his career with automobiles at the age of 18, racing sportscars in SCCA Club Racing throughout the Colorado and New Mexico region.

It was during this time, working at racetracks, that Steve was recruited by DriverSource in its inaugural year to develop a service department - offering Maintenance, Repairs, Restoration, and Performance Enhancements to Exotic, Classic and Collector cars.

Since 2005, Steve has worked directly with clients to cultivate long term relationships that support the collector car community.
