Hey, I’ve decided to sell my 1965 Alfa Romeo GTA.
Can you ask your car friends if anyone might be interested?

Sure. But why not just list it or send it to auction?
Because I don’t want the world to know I’m selling it.
And I’m not interested in auction risks and fees.
Because I don’t want the world to know I’m selling it. And I’m not interested in auction risks and fees.
That conversation (and countless variations of it) sparked what would become Motor Confidential.
With over 40 years of combined experience in the collector and performance car world, we’ve spent decades in the garages, paddocks, and private WhatsApp threads where real deals happen. And we know this:
We’re a collective of serious car lovers, drivers, and collectors with deep networks and even deeper respect for the unspoken rules of this world. We work quietly, precisely, and person-to-person.
We help sellers who value privacy and want the right buyer—not just the highest bidder. And we help buyers find the exact car they’ve been dreaming about, even if it’s not listed anywhere (yet).
Above all, we’re here to make the process feel easy, respectful, and trustworthy—from first call to final handshake.
Before launching Motor Confidential, Afshin was the founder and CEO of Petrolicious, the brand that reimagined car culture through award-winning films and editorial, elevating automotive storytelling into a cinematic art form. His work helped shape how a new generation engages with classic and collectible cars—less about horsepower, more about soul.
Afshin’s love of cars runs deep, but so does his experience building companies. Prior to Petrolicious, he served as CEO of Mitratech, a leading B2B enterprise software firm, where he led global teams and scaled complex solutions for Fortune 500 clients. That same mix of precision, creativity, and high standards now powers Motor Confidential.
Whether helping collectors quietly part with a special car or sourcing an impossible-to-find dream machine, Afshin thrives on making great connections—and getting the details just right.
