About European Starr Auto

Owners Pierre and Robert Holeczy's journey into the world of automotive excellence began during their childhood, spent amidst the captivating hum of their father's European automotive repair shop in Highland Park, IL. Immersed in the intricacies of craftsmanship and nurtured by decades of accumulated wisdom, their affinity for the Mercedes-Benz brand blossomed. As they matured, the brothers honed their skills, evolving into factory-trained technicians, with Pierre at a prestigious Mercedes-Benz dealership in Illinois, and Robert at a counterpart in Wisconsin.

Driven by a desire for a warmer climate, the siblings ventured south to Florida, where they collaborated at Mercedes Benz of Sarasota, enriching their expertise. Pierre further enriched his knowledge working at RENNTech, before reuniting with Robert in Sarasota to acquire European Starr Automotive in Venice, Florida.

Since assuming ownership, the brothers have cultivated a loyal following, fostering relationships built on the pillars of trust, integrity, and honesty. With over 25 years of individual experience, both hold esteemed ASE and Mercedes Benz certifications, complemented by Robert's proficiency in STANDOX paint applications. Together, they epitomize mastery as they meticulously tend to Mercedes vehicles, reminiscent of their formative years in their father's workshop.

At European Starr, the ethos is distinct—guided by a commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction. The team endeavors to deliver a seamless, enjoyable experience, aspiring to forge enduring relationships with clients.
