Sub5Zero Mandate

It’s simple. Sub5Zero is dedicated to cars that go fast. The unique breed of autos that can reach 60 mph from a stop in under 5 seconds - the true test of an exceptional vehicle. We cover stock OEM cars including those that are electric, hybrid and high-performance as well as factory tuned models from motorsport divisions such as Mercedes-AMG, BMW M GmbH and Audi Quattro GmbH. In addition, we review the offerings from 3rd party tuning companies such as AC Schnitzer and Ruf and take a look a various auto events around the world.

Since our inception we have grown quickly and have expanded our coverage to include a wider-variety of vehicles and goods that embody high-performance both in form and in spirit. Our brand has become synonymous with significant achievements across a range of categories including fast cars and motorcycles, alternative energy vehicles, gear, gaming and mobile technology. A special section dedicated to watches is also highlighted. (Why? Because there is a close relationship between high-end timepieces and high-performance autos, many manufacturers feature models with inspiration from racing history or affiliations with luxury auto makers.)

Ari Cox

I have a BA in Communications from the University of Pennsylvania and a MS in Management Information Systems from Case Western Reserve University. For the last 4 years I have been living in Los Angeles but I am originally from Cleveland, Ohio. For a mid-westerner the weather here is both amazing and monotonous. Living on the West Coast is a little like the movie Groundhog's Day, every day is the same. 

I am the President of 8NINE8 LLC and the founder of this site, Sub5Zero.com. Please feel free to contact me for any reason - site feedback, article critique, tips or just to introduce yourself. I think the automative community is fantastic and I look forward to meeting and working with other writers, bloggers, site owners, OEM reps, custom shops, auto dealers, event producers, etc.
