Saiss Parthipan was searching for a daily driver to get him to and from university. He told himself he wouldn't go for a RWD coupe, but after test driving the 2012 Hyundai Genesis, he was hooked! Two days later, he bought the car, and with the help of friends, he began building his underdog sports car. In December 2016, he lost one of his closest friends in a car accident, and has since dedicated the build to him.
