Alan Antolin believes in authenticity and quality. The passion he possess towards cars first started when he was a kid. "I was about 6 years old, playing video games such as Need For Speed Underground," he mentions, "and there was just something about these gas guzzling sports cars that sparked my interest." Since then, Antolin has worked his way up to where he is today - modifying a real car.
It was first started as buying a fun sports car as a daily at the age of 17 years old. Out of all the cars, Antolin picked the 2010 Nissan 370Z because it was the first car a person gets to drive in the game Need for Speed Undercover. "At first I had my mind set on keeping the car stock," he states, "then I started to attend my local car meets on Thursday nights." The meet was called "8626", and it's where he met people like @brzslut and @tfad_terrence. Even though the majority of the cars in attendance were FRS and BRZ, they influenced Antolin to modify the car.
The 370Z went through its phases like real people do. "It had its awkward, kinda ugly stage in the beginning then it started going through puberty and growing up. "This is when I met Alvin at 316 Auto Salon," he states. "This stage of its life was pretty 'macho' in my opinion but there was definitely more room to grow," Antolin mentions. This lead to how its looking today.
One person who really inspired Antolin to really go crazy on his car is Alvin Puertollano of 316 Auto Salon. "He showed me his history in the car industry," Antolin remembers, "he showed me his 2008 PASMAG feature, his car cameo in Tokyo Drift, CES display, and much more." Because of this, Antolin continuously strives to achieve some of these milestones that he was able to achieve. "Thank you Alvin for being friendly and welcoming me into your life and shop with open arms."
Antolin also thanks his parents and family for letting him spend so much of his money into my car. "Without them and their support, I definitely wouldn't be here today," he states.

FAVORITE MODIFICATION
"My favorite modification is the full Aimgain kit because it's a kit that you don't see very often. It flows very well with the stock lines of the car but adding some spaz with the wideness and aggressiveness."
