About Max
I’ve been obsessed with cars since I was a kid. It really clicked when I saw my first international car show in Poland in the early 90s. That was it. Hooked for life.
My name is Max. I have a formal automotive background and over 25 years of hands-on experience with cars. How engines work, suspension geometry, electrical systems, why things break, and how to fix them — that knowledge doesn’t expire.
I’ve owned cars across three countries — Poland, Germany, and the United States. Every single one was chosen the same way: what’s my budget, and what do I actually need? No brand loyalty. No ego. Just smart decisions with real money.
I live in St. Augustine, Florida, with my wife Brandi — also known as LittleShrimp — who has listened to more car talk than any human being should ever have to endure. She is extremely patient.
SpotForCars was established in 2020.
Why SpotForCars
I got tired of car advice that falls into two categories — corporate publications protecting manufacturer relationships, and internet content written by people who clearly don’t know what they’re talking about.
SpotForCars exists in the middle. Honest, technically grounded, written by someone who has made real car-buying decisions across three countries with real budget constraints.
EVs are changing everything right now, and most people have no idea where to start. That’s exactly the kind of question SpotForCars is built to answer — honestly, without the hype.
Beyond EVs, we cover real car reviews, SUV comparisons, and buying advice that actually helps you make smarter decisions.
No fluff. No PR speak. Just real automotive content from someone who genuinely cares about cars.
Welcome to SpotForCars.
