        Know all by these presents, that the undersigned hereby constitutes and
appoints each of Michael E. Maroone and Jonathan P. Ferrando, or either of them
acting singly, and with full power of substitution, the undersigned's true and
lawful attorney-in-fact to:

        (1)     prepare, execute in the undersigned's name and on the
undersigned's behalf, and submit to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") a Form ID, including amendments thereto, and any other documents
necessary or appropriate to obtain codes and passwords enabling the undersigned
to make electronic filings with the SEC;

        (2)     execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the
undersigned's capacity as an officer and/or director of AutoNation, Inc. (the
"Company"), Forms 3, 4 and 5 in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the rules thereunder;

        (3)     do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the
undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such
Form 3, 4 or 5, complete and execute any amendment or amendments thereto, and
timely file such form or report with the SEC and any stock exchange or similar
authority; and

        (4)     take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with
the foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit

understood that the documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the
undersigned pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall

        The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power
and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever
requisite, necessary or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights
and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the

substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming all that such
attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes, shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this power of attorney and the
rights and powers herein granted. The undersigned acknowledges that the
foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in serving in such capacity at the request of the
undersigned, are not assuming, nor is the Company assuming, any of the

unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing delivered to the
foregoing attorneys-in-fact.

        IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to
be executed as of this 15th day of November, 2011.
