Aaron Collins: 2011 Subaru WRX

Aaron Collins has been into cars since he was a kid. He played any racing game he could, from Gran Turismo to Need for Speed on Sony Playstation. After getting his first Subaru, Collins wanted to go faster. "With a lot of luck about a year later," mentions Collins, "I was able to trade it in for the 2011 Subaru WRX I have now."

Over the years Collins has worked on the WRX when he was financial able to. In 2016, he focused on power mods - a slightly bigger turbo, 1000cc injectors, big top mount intercooler. From playing Need for Speed Underground 1 and 2, he wanted to stand out. As a result, he added a carbon fiber hood and big wing.

"I liked the look of the green wheels with the blue body color," states Collins, "but I wanted to be a little different." 4 Sparco Assetto wheels were ordered, 3 green and 1 orange.

"It's a slow build process. I just work towards making cars that puts a smile on my face when I see and drive it."
