Brandon Auciello
BMW Brand Manager
(905) 366-3337 ext. 861

Brandon's greatest passion has always been cars. A little over 10 years ago, he went in to purchase a vehicle at one of the Pfaff dealerships and while going through the process, he started to see himself in the automotive industry. He asked his sales rep "how do I get into this business?" and the rest was history. His interest for BMW started at a young age and right out of high school. The BMW he really fell for was a 2004 330i ZHP sedan - any M vehicle with 4 doors has his vote. Prior to the automotive industry, he worked in the restaurant business and even owned a restaurant at one point in his life. He attended Seneca College for Business Administration and is a former Newmarket resident now living in Vaughan. Outside of work, he loves spending time with his family and friends, playing golf in the summer, and playing hockey in the winter.
