Interested in lots of cars and their various historical contexts. Started writing articles for TTAC in late 2016, when my first posts were QOTDs. From there I started a few new series like Rare Rides, Buy/Drive/Burn, Abandoned History, and most recently Rare Rides Icons. Operating from a home base in Cincinnati, Ohio, a relative auto journalist dead zone. Many of my articles are prompted by something I'll see on social media that sparks my interest and causes me to research. Finding articles and information from the early days of the internet and beyond that covers the little details lost to time: trim packages, color and wheel choices, interior fabrics. Beyond those, I'm fascinated by automotive industry experiments, both failures and successes. Lately I've taken an interest in AI, and generating "what if" type images for car models long dead. Reincarnating a modern Toyota Paseo, Lincoln Mark IX, or Isuzu Trooper through a text prompt is fun. Fun to post them on Twitter too, and watch people overreact. To that end, the social media I use most is Twitter, @CoreyLewis86. I also contribute pieces for Forbes Wheels and Forbes Home.

See? It's a Phoenix . . .risen!
A couple of thoughts... First, hat tip for the Wildcat love right off the top. Second, I always had a soft spot for the '92-'95 Skylarks; I thought the grill was reminiscent of the '65 Wildcat. Third, may I add a late nomination for the Buick Somerset? Digital dash but GM beancounters underspec'd the alternator and you know what happened next. Also, the shape of the dash was such that it had wound up with a funny bend in it as the plastic aged and deformed which looked like hell.
