When I was 16, I passed my drivers exam in my Father’s 1973 Datsun 240Z. Ever since that moment, cars of any type have piqued my interest. I’ve been amazed at the evolution of the motor vehicle over the past decades, and am looking forward to what the future holds for the automobile. Having the opportunity to drive and evaluate new vehicles for Automobile Journal has been eye-opening. With vast changes in the automobile industry the next few years are going to be exciting!

Marcel Mejia
Creative Director / Photographer
Ever since I was a kid, I have been interested in cars. I remember riding in the car with my parents and I could name every car on the road. I would always point and say to my parents “I want that car” and they would tell me to keep dreaming. Once I finally got my drivers license, I didn’t really care what car I had, I was just happy to be able to drive. That didn’t change my love for nice cars. I am excited to be a part of Automobile Journal so that I may showcase my talents as a filmmaker, photographer and designer while enjoying amazing automobiles from around the world. Check out my website for more of my work.

Bio coming soon.
Let’s put it right out there. I love all kinds of cars. I wonder at the cars from Korea that cost only a bit over ten grand but are loaded with features that used to qualify as premium luxury. I admire (from afar), exotics that are essentially race cars disguised as works of modern art. And I respect the incredible balancing act that results in the bread and butter cars most of us drive, with more features, performance and reliability served up every year, in comfortable, convenient packages. And, finally, I am fascinated with the cutting edge of technology, particularly the new wave of hybrid engines that promise the power we love while putting out cleaner emissions and sipping less fuel.
