In this exhilarating feature from Larry Chen, we are taken to Garage Speed where the spotlight shines on Chris and his extraordinary car that has conquered a jaw-dropping journey through a multitude of countries, from Poland to Armenia. This secondhand 2003 Forester, purchased for a mere $4,000, underwent a remarkable transformation to become a rugged off-road beast ready to tackle the toughest terrains. With a liquid propane system boosting its power, upgraded WRX parts, and Yokohama X80 tires, this Forester is a force to be reckoned with.

As Chris shares his ambitious plans to drive the car all the way to Argentina and eventually to the icy plains of Yakutia in Siberia, the sheer audacity and determination behind this adventure are truly awe-inspiring. From LED lights to a custom steel bumper, every detail of the car's build reflects Chris's passion for exploration and pushing boundaries. The lightweight magnesium Audi wheels, functional snorkel, and unique kitchen setup further showcase the meticulous planning and attention to detail that went into this epic project.

With 30,000 miles already under its belt since September 2023 and travels through 18 countries, this Forester has proven its mettle on the road less traveled. Chris's unwavering dedication to breathing new life into this once-rusted vehicle is a testament to the spirit of adventure and the thrill of exploration. Larry Chen's feature captures not just a car, but a story of resilience, passion, and the unyielding pursuit of the unknown, making it a true testament to the indomitable human spirit.
