History
Ruben arrived to O.C. from Argentina in 1970 and worked for a European car dealership for a while. However, he was disappointed in the way he was required to do his work. He loved these cars too much for the rushed jobs he was asked to perform. It was in July of 1978 that his dream came thru and he opened his own small Mercedes-Benz and Porsche repair shop on P.C.H. in Dana Point. Today Rubens Imports is a state-of-the-art repair and maintenance facility specializing on European Motor cars, from the classics all the way thru late model vehicles. Mostly, Rubens Imports is a family business. Ruben's son-in-law, Rafael Bonetto, is the GM and runs the service department with the help of his long-time friend Jaime Escamilla, and Rafael's brother JP Bonetto is in charge of all the sales, marketing and administration.
