Marcus Lane | Biography

As a kid growing up in Goldsboro, NC there wasn't much of a car scene. It wasn't until Marcus watched the original "The Fast and the Furious" that he was really introduced to modified car scene. It was 2 year after the release of that movie that he was finally able to purchase a car. Marcus had originally wanted a Mitsubishi Eclipse but they were out of his budget. He was also fond of the Mercury Cougar but they too were too expensive. After months of searching, he ended up with a 1996 Chevy Cavalier coupe. It had manual windows, no A/C, or cruise control. Marcus couldn't afford much but he did have 2 12in Rockford Fosgate subs that rattled the car apart with some sporty looking hubcaps. It wasn't much, but he loved that car. Ever since that Cavalier he was hooked, as years passed by Marcus went from car to car always modding, always attending shows, and always wanting more. In his early modding days he was active on forums such as NCTuners.com, which allowed Marcus to see local builds easier, attend local shows and meet other enthusiasts. Cars helped him excel in his career, "I knew I always wanted more and over time my addiction to cars got crazier". Fast forward to today, Marcus now drive a 2017 NSX which is in some form a dream car of his as a kid. As a person who always loved the Japanese culture and the iconic cars of the 90s such as the Supra, GTR and the NSX, Marcus expressed his gratitude in owning a modern day iconic Japanese car; a car that he was very much a fan of in its first generation. "Cars really mean a lot more than the adrenaline you get pushing them to their limits. They helped me become a better person by keeping me out of trouble, helping me have a goal to further push myself, and meet tons of amazing people".
