Inside the Life of Fort Lauderdale Collection’s CEO Adam Gordon

Gordon is pleased that the company is moving in a direction of collectability assets, giving them a serious edge on competitor dealerships in the area.

“Our direction of inventory has shi ed a little bit more from the everyday exotic car sales and more into focusing on putting together big collections of cars—considering we have all the pieces of the puzzle,” Gordon explains. “When people are seeking to collect, you usually have to hire a broker, scope them and carry out a whole investigation into nding the right piece. Typically, you can’t just go out and buy a collection of cars in one place. However, someone can now come to us, and we have all the pieces at a one-stop shop. It’s a big adjustment, which we weren’t really at in 2011.”

In accomplishing this impressive feat, Gordon has managed to keep his team close to its core. With just 25 employees, Gordon is proud that everyone on the team has been able to expand upon someone else’s knowledge—whether it’s pricing, vintage collectibles or chassis numbers, Gordon’s team has all the expertise to make it happen.

“I’m proud of the direction in which we’ve moved in as far as the company’s reputation and branding ourselves as ‘the best.’ Our reputation has been impeccable, and now we also have a leadership view in the super-exotic, which has been amazing to see us transform,” Gordon says.

In the coming years, the young entrepreneur hopes to expand on his success even further by opening another location in South Florida and, looking even further, on the West Coast.
