THE ON PAR STORY

Every car tells a story, these are mine.

The First Ride – 1999 Honda Civic

Harvey’s journey began with a humble but dependable 1999 Honda Civic. Fresh out of college and working his first real job, he needed something affordable that could get him anywhere without breaking down.

The Civic was simple, no bells or whistles, but it represented independence. Harvey remembers long commutes, late-night drives with friends, and even learning basic car maintenance by tinkering under its hood.

Looking back, it wasn’t glamorous, but it was the car that taught him responsibility—and the freedom that comes with owning your first set of wheels.

The Upgrade – 2005 BMW 3 Series

After a few years of hard work, Harvey decided it was time to treat himself. Enter the 2005 BMW 3 Series—a car he had admired for years.

It was sleek, stylish, and the first time he really felt proud pulling up anywhere. While the maintenance bills came as a shock, Harvey doesn’t regret the purchase. It was a lesson in balancing passion with practicality, but also a reminder of how rewarding it feels to achieve something you’ve always wanted.

That BMW was more than a car—it was a milestone in his career and personal life.

The Family Car – 2012 Toyota Highlander

Life changed when Harvey’s family started to grow. Suddenly, space and safety became more important than horsepower.

The 2012 Toyota Highlander became the perfect fit—it carried car seats, strollers, groceries, and still had room for family road trips. Harvey remembers piling everyone in for their first vacation up north, realizing that sometimes the “best car” isn’t the one that turns heads, but the one that keeps the people you love safe and comfortable.

This was a car full of memories—messy back seats, sing-alongs, and family adventures.

CAR 4 - THE REGRET

There’s always that one car you buy with your heart instead of your head. For Harvey, it was the 2016 Ford Mustang GT.

The sound of the engine, the aggressive styling—it checked all the boxes for excitement. But in reality, it wasn’t practical for his daily routine. Between sky-high insurance, constant trips to the gas station, and backseat space that barely fit a backpack, Harvey quickly realized this wasn’t the right match for his lifestyle.

He admits it was fun while it lasted, but also one of the most valuable lessons in making smart car decisions.

The Dream Car – 2022 Tesla

Today, Harvey drives the car that he truly considers his dream vehicle: a 2022 Tesla Model S.

After years of trial, error, and growth, he wanted something that combined performance, innovation, and comfort. The instant torque still gives him goosebumps, but it’s the quiet luxury, the cutting-edge tech, and the guilt-free electric drive that make it special.

It feels like the culmination of his journey—every car before this played a role in teaching him what he really wanted out of the driving experience. For Harvey, the Tesla isn’t just a car; it’s the reward for all the lessons learned along the way.
