Dwayne Begnaud | Orlando Import Auto Specialist

DWAYNE BEGNAUD - Co-Owner & Founder

Dwayne Begnaud, a native of a quaint Louisiana town, honed his mechanical skills early on while working on vehicles with his six older brothers. His childhood was filled with learning the ins and outs of troubleshooting the ATVs that he and his brothers enjoyed.

At 15, Dwayne relocated to Orlando with his sister, and later graduated from Oak Ridge High School in 1991. Initially pursuing a career in construction, he eventually followed his passion for automotive technology, becoming an Auto Technician in 1995 at Coggin Honda of Orlando. There, he quickly rose to an ASE Master Tech and participated in the Southeast Honda Top Tech Competition in 1998.

After his tenure at Coggin Honda, Dwayne embarked on an exciting journey with his friend Joe, leading to the establishment of Orlando Import Auto Specialists. In his downtime, Dwayne continues to indulge in his love for ATVs and 4x4s, keeping the spirit of his adventurous youth alive.
