It has been less than a year since we officially launched MODZ365.COM, our

goal, to create a place online that really focuses on the auto lifestyle commu-

nity, the culture, the people, the passion and the pride. The site has seen ex-

cellent growth jumping 6,253,531 spots up the Alexa.com website ranking in 3

months, a testament of the support from the community and our commitment

to showcasing the auto – lifestyle culture. We are not done yet.

January 2010 we are launching MODZ.365 Photo Edition , an auto lifestyle

photo magazine and collectible, for auto enthusiast! We all love what Internet

has done for media and what it continues to do, but nothing beats the the thrill

of seeing your ride in print, at resolutions that simply cannot be matched on a

computer screen.

We know, there are a lot of auto magazines on the market, filled with a lot ads

and a lot of... well articles and it is not that we do not enjoy reading it's just that

we wanted to see more rides and these magazines always seem to leave you

wanting to more. So we created one of our own, packed it with photos from car

shows, events, meets, photo shoots, interviews, community submits and much

more, printed on great stock paper for a great high quality finish and added a

DVD with photos shows and videos just to see it all again in High Definition

(HD).

This is our preview edition, created to give you a taste of what is to come and

to get your feedback on what you would like to see. Please do not be afraid to

be critical we depend on it make us better and we wont let any praise get to our

heads and stop us from pushing it to the limit. You can send any thoughts sug-

gestions, complaints, corrections etc, to [email protected] we look for-

ward to hearing from you!

MODZ365.com and Modz Print edition.

even if we wanted too, fact is we would prefer and want this project to be com-

munity driven, so we are looking for like minded groups and individuals to be a

Show Stopper! This car was one of those that just stood

out at the at the IFO Tampa show, when we spoke to

Andre about his Scion he was pretty cool and gave us full

access to photograph and do our thing we would have love

to spend more time with the baby but we got to move on, it

was no surprise that this ride was one of the days winners.

Audio Video Creations

Audio Video Creations is a custom audio and alarm shop located in Spring Hill Florida,

not much really goes on in Spring Hill, so when you see their Xtreme custom Ford Av-

alanche parked outside the shop you are going stop and have a look, step into the

showroom and you are greeted by a customized ATV, outfitted with some mean Kicker

gear, black paint finish with custom airbrushed flames.

Inside the bay we found one of their current projects, a red hummer that to be honest

from the outside looks like a regular ride, pop open the doors and you will be blown

away trust me and even though it is not yet complete we can tell that this hummer will

be hit at the shows.
