PFS Spotlight

Patrick Bryson, Southwest Sales Manager

A passion for vintage cars, an addiction to travel and a love of the Southwest community are the common threads woven within Patrick Bryson's rich tapestry of automotive experience. Patrick became a permanent resident of Phoenix in college and never looked back. His enthusiasm for fine automobiles led him to serve as Chairman of the Copperstate 1000 Road Rallye for two years.

Patrick brings an extensive mechanical, automotive and engineering background to the Premier team. As a seasoned traveler he has visited some 35 of the 50 United States and a mind-boggling roster of 22 countries in Europe, Asia, and North America. This personal history has made him both comfortable and confident among Premier's diverse and sophisticated clientele, who are drawn to his quick wit and impressive memory.

Although he enjoyed driving in Norway, Russia, Japan, England, Korea, Germany, and France, Patrick is most fond of Parisian streets "because of the extremely fast pace and precision" involved in navigating them. He describes his impression of the City of Lights as "a crowded Road America."

Patrick's attention to customer service is also enhanced by his love for automobiles. He currently drives a couple of Porches, and a Vintage BMW. He has also owned a '65 Thunderbird, a '69 Olds 442, a '59 Bug Eye Sprite, '64 and '05 Minis, three BMWs, 12 Volkswagens, including a 1973 Thing and some 30 other cars.

Always eager to serve the community he calls home, Patrick is a current member and past President of the Men's Arts Council, a support organization of Phoenix Art Museum. To date, the council has given more than $7 million to the museum to fund acquisitions and promote art education.
