Miguel Garcia was introduced to the car scene by his older brothers. When he discovered the perfect 2008 Honda Civic Si for sale with Mugen parts on it, he drove six hours to Ohio to pick up the car. After attending car shows, he decided he wanted his car to be in the show next time, so he started modifying with his brothers in the garage.
