July Department of the Month – Sebastian Gaeta

Last month you were introduced to our Service Crew; this month it’s all about the owner! Sebastian Gaeta bought ArborMotion in July 2015, when he found out the previous owners were interested in selling. Sebastian was a long-term customer at ArborMotion, so when he found out it was for sale, he jumped on it! 

Before his days at ArborMotion, Sebastian worked at Sesi Lincoln-Volvo-Mazda for 22 years with his wife’s family. He was able to work under his brother-in-law and uncle who taught him how to be the best businessman he could be! 

Sebastian attended LSU where he was a member of the varsity football team as their place-kicker. Unfortunately, an off the field accident caused Sebastian to quit the team, leading him to transfer to the University of Nebraska. At the University of Nebraska, he studied Communication, which gave him a great foundation for his future careers!

Sebastian Gaeta, Owner

He has lived in Michigan for thirty years and has raised two wonderful daughters who attended the University of Michigan. Go Blue!

Sebastian’s passion for cars doesn’t end with owning ArborMotion. He also has a love for Porsches. Sebastian started his love affair with Porsche in the 1970’s when he watched a family friend become a Porsche owner. He was able to go for rides which inspired his love of the brand! When he made the move to Lincoln, Nebraska, Sebastian would frequent a local Porsche specialty shop, Road and Track Motors. The owner, Bud Dunklau, shared his passion of Porsches with Sebastian. Bud owned several 356 models which Sebastian grew to love. This is when he decided that within five years of graduating he would own one, and he beat it by one year! 

When Sebastian isn’t at ArborMotion, you can find him coaching the local high school football team in the fall. The rest of the year he likes to spend with family, as well as participate in events with the local Porsche clubs or any event here at our shop! 

It’s easy to spot Sebastian in the shop, bopping around to different departments or chatting with customers at the service desk. If you’re lucky, maybe he’ll even pull your vehicle in after service! The next time you visit, feel free to ask for him or even stop him when he’s passing by. He’s always more than happy to chat and even give you a tour of our shop!
