Anthony Scala, Owner at City Auto Group, where he directs the sales, service, and office operations for each of their many locations. A Sauganash native, Anthony began his career as a summer porter, studying the industry, until graduating college on a Saturday and hitting the floor as a salesperson the next Monday. From there, Anthony quickly climbed the the dealer ladder, ascending to Sales Manager and eventually General Manager at multiple stores. He has a proven track record of building high powered sales teams at every level, as well as experience with domestic and international manufacturers alike. In 2019, and with a decade of dealership management behind them, Anthony and Shawn finally established themselves as the leaders they are today, opening the first City Auto Group location on Chicago’s Northwest Side. Industry-leading satisfaction scores then proved City sales effective within months and spurred the opening of several new locations throughout the Midwest. Now one of the region’s most exciting dealers, City Auto Group is known for excellence, and it’s in no small part due to the belief in teamwork powered by Anthony’s unique ability for putting great people in the right position to succeed.
