Jesse Mendez went to his first car show in 1997 with his 1992 Acura Integra GSR. In December of 2015, his wife gave him a 2015 Subaru WRX STI as birthday present. Mendez decided to modify the STI to get more involved in the car scene and car shows. "The car community inspires me," he mentions, "I love the attention and the support."
