Christian Carreiro had been around Hondas from a young age, with many modified Hondas in his family. As he got older, he started to spend weekends with his uncle Joe, fixing and modifying cars with him. By the time he was about to leave high school, Carreiro picked up his 1993 Honda Del Sol. As he gained more knowledge, he started to modify the car, inspired by other Elevated club members.

FAVORITE MODIFICATION
"Air ride. The reason I love my air ride is simply the comfort of knowing I can go as low as I want, but still being able to save my butt for when I see that horrendous set of train tracks ahead."
FUTURE MODIFICATIONS
"New wheels. Possibly turbocharge the car."
