Meet Ben Huth
Meet Ben — Founder of Cars With Ben
My first car was a black 1995 Volvo 960 with grey leather, a smooth inline-six, and a factory sound system that still sounded incredible.
That car taught me to appreciate the details that make a vehicle special: thoughtful engineering, quality materials, a well-tuned suspension, and the feeling of driving something that has been properly cared for.
That appreciation eventually became Cars With Ben.
I started this business because I love cars, enjoy working on them, and believe every vehicle deserves thoughtful, honest service—whether it’s a high-mileage daily driver or a car you’ve owned for decades.
My approach is simple: understand the vehicle, do the job right, and treat every customer fairly.
