About Foreign & Domestic Affairs Automotive Services
Jim DeMarco started Foreign Affairs Automotive Service in his home garage in 1983. After graduation from Oregon State University he began searching for the dream architect job that would utilize his degree and love of art, science and problem solving.
After vari...ous Corporate positions, Jim realized that his passion for cars and interest in all things mechanical was his aspiration. In the immortal words of Marc Anthony,
"If you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life"
Jim set his entrepreneurial sights on a career that would enable him to problem solve and create, but more importantly to empower and teach.
Since 1984 Jim has been teaching and empowering his FDA customers on how to care for their cars and the importance of timely maintenance. Jim explains things in laymen terms and believes that no question is a dumb question. Foreign & Domestic Affairs Automotive Service is simply called "FDA" these days.
FDA has thousands of clients that have trusted Jim with caring for their vehicles and know that he'll always give them the most honest and best price on service and repair. FDA has been in the SE Portland area for 30 years. Not many auto repair shops come close to that longevity. FDA 's steadfast commitment to SE PORTLAND in part is what has built trust and loyalty within the community among residents and other small business owners.

Nobody is Perfect
It is rare to find the right mechanic, one whom you can trust for everything relating to your vehicle. I've been going to Foreign and Domestic Auto Affairs for about 3 years now. Jim, the owner, is reasonable and negotiable as he can be. He intends to run a fair and hon...est garage. If I have had any problems with his garage he has done his best to work it out and keep our friendship clean. Keep someone around for 2nd opinion, but you can often get the job done right and at a better price.
