Then they doubled the price.This post was submitted by Jeremy, one of our readers. He decided to take a little field trip to a local “Porsche” vendor and share what he found there. Thanks Jeremy!Ī few weeks ago I was reading the LA Times business section and came across a cool article about a SoCal couple who transformed their passion for Porsches into a multi million dollar business. Much to my delight, I discovered the close proximity of their business to my house. I was so impressed by what I saw at ‘L.A. Dismantler’ that I wanted to share it with this community. Nestled at the bottom of the La Tuna Canyon in Sun Valley, CA is a strip of salvage yards for just about every car on the road. The luminary of these establishments, by far, is the one that specializes in the Porsche brand. Dismantler was started by husband and wife team Todd and Sara Dakarmen back in 1995. Todd’s love affair with the Porsche brand began at the age of 16, when he first became a Porsche owner (lucky dog). With nearly every member of his family being a Porsche driver, it’s as if Todd was born with the brand in his genes. In the early 90’s, Todd was running KAOS, a Honda and Accura salvage yard in Los Angeles where he began dismantling Porsche as a hobby. He, like so many of our members on this page, has a fantastic spouse who convinced him to start a business that focused exclusively on Porsches. Todd and Sara started ‘LA Porsche’ out of their home and 15 years later ‘LA Dismantler Inc.’ has a growing staff of 17+ and a sales volume of $5 million to $10 million a year and are now one of the largest Porsche only salvage facilities in the world. LA Dismantler specializes in late model (1980 and up) Porsches. They sell reconditioned, refurbished, new and used Porsche parts for 911, 930, 964, 993, 996, 986 Boxster, Carrera 2, C2S, C4, C4S, GT, GT2, GT3, RS, RSR, Roadster, Speedster and Turbo for Coupe, Cabriolet or Targa body styles 5 or 6 speed, Tiptronic, 2wd or awd transmissions. They have grown to be an international business that sends its parts around the globe and offers customer service in Armenian, Arabic, Turkish, Russian, Farsi, French, Korean, Spanish, Taiwanese, and Mandarin. They are a business that prides itself on being one of the cleanest and most environmentally friendly salvage facilities in the industry. ![]() Last Friday I drove up the 210 from my home in Pasadena, hung a left at La Tuna Canyon Rd.
