Leon Fabian: 2011 Chevrolet Corvette

Leon Fabian got into the car scene just like any other guy - the love for cars and going fast. As a teen and young adult, Fabian watched his friends get nice cars from their parents and he was stuck with a 1991 Ford Ranger. "I promised myself," mentions Fabian, "as soon as I’m able, I'm going to get a nice car just like them so I can join in on the fun!"

In January 2018 Fabian bought a 2011 Chevrolet Corvette at a Chevrolet dealership in Las Vegas, NV.

"I decided to modify my car because in the beginning of 2016 I crashed my last Corvette, a 2004 C5 Z06," mentions Fabian. "It was heavily modded pushing over 700rwhp and 650rwtq." Although the ZR1 is fast just as it comes, Fabian wanted to get to the level he was before when he had the C5 Z06, if not surpass it.

When it comes to modifying his Corvettes, Fabian only allows Synergy Motorsports to handle the job, and will continue to be the only one. "They're known as one of the best in the Bay Area when it comes to LS-based cars."

Competition inspires Fabian to build his vehicle(s). "I’ve been competitive in most aspects of my life ever since I was an adolescent," states Fabian. "When you get older, you soon realize you can’t compete in physical things like you used to (when you were younger), so this hobby is a way to fulfill that need without straining your body."
