I was born and raised in Colorado and have two beautiful, talented, and extremely smart daughters, ages 23 and 18. Both are CU Buffs attending school in Boulder. The eldest is class of 2019 and the younger class of 2023. I am incredibly blessed to have such extremely bright and very beautiful daughters.

I’m an avid golfer and skier, so the Colorado lifestyle has been an absolutely perfect fit for my entire life.

I have worked in the auto industry since 1989. I spent some time on the sales side of the business and have managed stores in a variety of roles; but I’ve found my passion in the finance office. I appreciate the opportunity to assist and guide our guests in the direction that best aligns with their financial priorities and to be able to satisfy their automotive needs.

A Colorado native, Allen Martinez was born and raised in the Mile High City. He brings, literally, a lifetime of repair and restoration experience in the Denver-area to Prestige Imports.

His love of restoring, repairing, and driving cars started at an early age, as did his career in the automotive industry. When he was a kid, Martinez “pestered and bugged” a neighbor who owned a body shop for a job; eventually, “he gave me the opportunity to work for him during the summertime. I started by sweeping floors, changing light bulbs, cleaning bathrooms, as well as scraping and removing undercoating.” Those humble beginnings would transform into more prestigious positions as his career progressed.

With many years of experience spent in a number of different contexts and companies, Martinez has learned quite a bit about what it means to work in the automotive industry, as well as what makes a good manager. As far as working within the Collision and Repair niche of the car business, he says: “Well, for me, it’s about restoring something back to the way it was beforehand. Being able to see a vehicle in pieces on a truck, and then it leaves [the body shop] like it hasn’t been in an accident: there’s something gratifying in that transformation.”
