Julius Rillera

2012 Lexus Is350

My name is Julius Rillera, currently living in Stockton, Ca. My profession is as a lead tech at Tesla. In my Hobbies and my spare time I like to do work on my car, go shooting, and spend time with my daughter, family and friends. What best describes me and my personality is I consider myself a  Homebody/Nature guy, at times I’d like to stay home with my daughter and bbq and chill. Other times I like to go outdoors and enjoy the simple things and chill at the beach/lake views.

Many people influenced me to get into cars, my family influenced me alot but I would have to say my old brother influenced me the most. As we grew up everything from video games to messing around with RC cars. My brother was always there for me and taught me things. As a kid, I was more of the clumsy and crazier little brother that always broke things, so I can honestly say I was very humbled that my older brother was always there for me to help me fix any issues I had. Growing up as a kid I was always surrounded by cars, motorcycles, go-karts, ATVs and pocket bikes, basically, anything with a motor my family was always messing with these things. To this present day, I think about my childhood and I’m glad I was raised this way, I wouldn't be who I am now if it wasn't for my family and older brother influencing me to where I am now.

I didn’t choose this car because I inherited this car from my older brother after his passing. This car has more meaning to me than any other car. I, Myself have a show/project car which is a 2007 g35s. After my brother's passing, I took a big pause in my car and pursued to fix up his Lexus in memory of him. He always took care of me so this is the least I can do is fix up his car in honour of him.

I'm building this car in honour of my older brother after passing away. My older brother was a big role model to me and was always there for me. The least I can do is build his car up in memory of him. Owning this car means alot to me in so many ways. The fact that I'm building this car for my older brother always hits me emotionally. I know deep down my brother would be so proud and happy to see his car all done up. Driving this car around is a feeling that's indescribable, the way it sounds and how smooth it is compared to my g35 especially since my g35 is on coilovers compared to the Lexus being on air suspension.

One major reason why I believe this car stands out from the rest is the meaning of the whole build. Once people see the car they already initially understand the meaning of the build. The motive and reputation of this build is to show "A Brother's Love" ain't like no other. That is the main reason why I called this build that.

What has the car scene brought to your life?

The whole car scene opened up a lot of friendships with others that share the same passion for cars. That's one of the main reasons I live for this passion for cars, is the community it comes with. You meet a lot of people, and businesses. Another reason why I’ve always loved the car scene is the number of cars you see from others, it shows how much creativity and representation of themselves as car owners. Basically building cars that fit their personality. 

Dream car

The dream car would have to be 90's Acura NSX

The dream build would be an old-school early 70's Datsun 620 truck
