I grew up in the garage.
Now I help people make better
decisions about their cars.
I’ve spent more than 20 years working on, building, buying, diagnosing, and obsessing over cars.
Today, I use that experience to help people answer a simple question:
“What would you do if this were your car?”
That’s what Murad Motors is about.
You don't have to become a mechanic to make intelligent decisions about your car.
You just need someone knowledgeable in your corner.
Cars have been part of my life since I was a child.
When my family came to America in 1997, my father built an independent automotive repair business from the ground up.
I grew up around that shop.
I learned by getting my hands dirty—diagnosing problems, repairing cars, making mistakes, fixing them, and eventually learning how different vehicles fail and what actually keeps them alive.
Honda. Toyota. Subaru. American cars. Daily drivers. Project cars. Modified cars.
Over time, cars stopped being something I simply worked on.
They became something I understood.
I learned to look at cars as systems.
My professional career eventually took me into technology and engineering leadership, where I manage engineers and complex systems.
But I never stopped building cars.
In 2017, I built a 400-horsepower Subaru engine from the ground up. The objective wasn't simply making horsepower. It was building power without sacrificing reliability.
That same philosophy drives Murad Motors today.
A car isn't just an engine. It's a system of mechanical components, electronics, maintenance decisions, previous repairs, modifications, economics—and ultimately, risk.
My job is to help you understand that system before it costs you money or puts you on the side of the road.
I'm not here to sell you a repair.
I don't need to manufacture a problem with your car to make money from you.
That changes the relationship.
If a mechanic gives you a $6,000 estimate, I'll help you understand whether it makes sense.
If you're considering buying a used performance car, I'll help you understand what you're actually getting into.
If you've got a half-finished project sitting in the garage, we'll figure out what it takes to get it back on the road.
And sometimes the answer may simply be:
Don't spend the money.
I'd rather earn your trust than sell you something you don't need.
What I Can Help With
Keep your existing categories, but make them human:
Buying a car — Due diligence, valuation, mechanical risk and negotiation.
Questioning a repair bill — An independent second opinion before you authorize expensive work.
Finishing a project — A practical plan for getting abandoned or stalled builds running again.
Keeping a car alive — Maintenance strategies focused on reliability and long-term ownership.
Becoming a safer driver — Vehicle knowledge, situational awareness and defensive-driving principles.
Before you spend thousands, let's talk for 30 minutes.
