Ever since Devan Pelletier was a child, he's always been fascinated with old school American Muscle Cars. At the age of 16, Pelletier purchased a 1996 Chevy Caprice, which was quickly followed by a 1994 and 1996 Impala SS. A few years had passed when Pelletier found himself searching for a new daily driver. Being a fan of big body cars, something compact like an Audi A4 or VW Golf R32 was not going to cut it. After some serious soul searching, Pelletier finally found his match — a 2006 Audi A8L. Pelletier was immediately overjoyed with the vehicle's stock adaptive air suspension. Pelletier's initial plan was to only install new wheels, but as we all know, it's hard to just leave it at that. Pelletier continued to draw new inspirations and went on to modify the A8L, piece by piece. Some of Pelletier's favourite modifications include his Cohiba Cigar-theme trunk and the customized front bumper.

FAVORITE MODIFICATION
One of Pelletier's favourite modifications is his Cohiba Cigar-themed truck, which began as just a sticker on his air tank but quickly turned into a complete alteration. Another favourite of Pelletier is the wheels — which didn't come without complications. The entire brush finish and powder coat was done by hand, and on first attempt, they were almost ruined. Pelletier wasn't discouraged, and after the third attempt, he finally had a finished product.
