What does your car mean to you?

• I got my car in April of 2003. At the time it had only been out for a year and I fell in love with it the first time I drove it. Since then it has been a long 100,000 miles of ups and downs but in the end I still love it. Everything done to it has been installed by me.
• My favorite part of my car, and the SE-R in general is revving up to 5k rpm’s and hearing the secondary intake runners open up. It kills my gas mileage but always brings a smile to my face.

Why are you in Prestigious Innovations? What are you giving back to the club?

• Chris, Adam, and I founded Prestigious Innovations after the fallout of our last club, Bay Customs. We started this with the intent to take everything we learned from our last club and apply what we liked, and fix what we didn’t.
• For me personally, this is my way to make new friends and connections and meet people who enjoy cars as much as I do. As the Vice President I do my best to get the club recognized and network with other organizations in order to accomplish this.
• As a member, I try to give my all to the club as it is a part of me and I need to fulfill the obligations necessary to keep it alive and strong. Plus we get to go to Motor Trend every year.
