Meet Jim Koscs
1967: Murray Fireball
I’ve got more than 25 years in the automobile business: magazine and newspaper writing, agency PR, brand PR, trade and consumer publications -- and more. In addition to writing chops, my unique skill is an encyclopedic knowledge of the car business, including brand and model histories. For me, there's no learning curve with your brand or vehicles. I can hit the ground running with your projects.
I began driving at age four (a Murray Fireball 8 pedal car). At the 1968 New York Auto Show, I snuck away from my father to get a better look at a Rolls-Royce -- from underneath it. When I was 6, I could identify nearly every current American car and most imports -- some even by exhaust sound. I won some quarter bets naming cars not just correctly but their model years, too. (And I taught skeptical friends how to verify by looking for embossed model years in cars' taillights.)

The college years: 1970 Mustang Mach 1
By the time I was eight, I knew Chevys, Fords and Cadillacs back to the mid-'50s, and I had a subscription to Motor Trend. My sixth-grade science project was a "car of the future" (to be accurate, a 1/18-scale cardboard model of a car of the near future).
Combine all of that with my comprehensive publishing and public relations experience (agency and corporate), plus 25 years of running my own automotive PR/marcom/editorial business. I'd let my satisfied clients tell you how I've helped them.
Why AudaMotive? ("Awe-dah motive.") “Auda” is for my wife, Christine Auda. Appropriately enough, she inspired me to start AudaMotive and works as my partner in many roles: marketing, contract negotiation, research, editing, proof-reading, bookkeeping and scheduling. Also an artist, she's been an inspiration since we met in February 1992.
