The Difference

Why Our Appraisals Are Different

Most dealers run your VIN through a formula. We have a mechanic look at your actual car.

Front Line Auto Appraisal
Not a KBB formula. Front Line Auto knows what repairs cost and what the car is actually worth. That means you get a fair number — not a lowball generated by software.
No Obligation
Get an offer with no pressure to buy anything. If you just want cash for your car, that's perfectly fine. We'll make you an offer and you decide.
Apply Toward Purchase
Use your trade-in value toward any vehicle on our lot. Combine with our buy here pay here financing if you need additional coverage on the purchase price.
Liens & Payoffs Handled
Have a loan on your vehicle? We handle the payoff directly with your lender. If there's equity above the payoff, you receive the difference in cash.

Family-Owned & Operated

13 Years of Honest Business. Every Car. Every Customer.

Fort Lauderdale Auto Sales isn't a franchise and it isn't a flip lot. It's a family business built on one principle: treat people the way you'd want to be treated when buying a car.

"We Drive Every Car Before You Do"
Before a vehicle ever hits our lot, we personally drive and test it ourselves. If we wouldn't put our own family in it, we won't sell it to yours.
"Mechanic-Owned. That Changes Everything."
Omari Grant isn't just the owner — he's an ASE-certified mechanic who ran Front Line Auto for 8 years before selling his first car. Every vehicle is inspected by the same team that repairs cars for a living.
"Customers for Life, Not Just a Sale"
Our customers don't just buy once — they come back for their second, third car, and send their family. That's the trust you can't fake.

In His Own Words
“I started this business because I see people purchase cars from other dealerships where they don’t even look at them. They just buy from the auction, don’t change the oil, don’t check the tires, don’t check the brakes — nothing. The moment you drive off the lot, it’s your problem, your headache.”
— Omari Grant, Owner
“I’m not just somebody fixing cars. I’m an ASE certified technician with multiple national certifications — the national standard for mechanics.”
— Omari Grant, Owner
“It’s not only that you get a warranty — you get a place you can come back to. That’s actually a shop that has the expertise of fixing cars.”
— Omari Grant, Owner
“I can diagnose the problem, I can fix the problem, and I can sell you a car that we know is just gonna work. Point blank.”
— Omari Grant, Owner
