Kim Lim: 2009 Infiniti G37

After laying eyes on his friend's Infiniti G35, Kim Lim knew he needed his own. Lim found his match with the 2009 Infiniti G37X and hasn’t looked back since. Pushing 522 whp, it’s clear Lim has taken the G37X to new heights. With only an undercarriage installation needed before the build is complete, Lim hopes to come home a champion from at the 2016 Tuner Evolution show in Philadelphia, PA.
