Mohammed Hosein is no stranger to cool custom projects. His 2013 Subaru WRX STI is the successor to several previous builds that were built alongside his father, including a 2006 STI on air ride. Currently in their garage sits a 1973 Beetle with a 500-horsepower STI-swap, a 1976 Porsche 911 with a twin-turbo small block V8, and a candy-apple-red 2005 Ferrari F430. With a repertoire such as theirs, it’s only fitting that Hosein tackled his newest project car with outside the box thinking.
