We met in 1st grade and instantly bonded through a shared love of cars. We spent summers during school working for race shops at Sonoma Raceway, where we developed a deep passion for vintage racing machines. After completing engineering degrees at top universities on opposite sides of the world, Spencer was accepted into an Oxford-based startup incubator program to pursue his automaker dreams and Kyle left Ford after co-authoring four patents to work in the aerospace industry. In 2020, Spencer shared a design for a new sports car inspired by his favorite vintage racing cars. Feeding off each other’s enthusiasm, Spencer moved to LA and Kyle quit his job. We began developing a car that would deliver the purity of a 1960s sports prototype and last as long as a satellite in space. Thus, Shoreline was born. But why now?

Regulations are forcing OEMs to make heavier and more complex cars. As a result, demand for a pure driving experience is increasing. We have charted a path to utilize low-volume legal exemptions – and modern design and manufacturing technologies – to build road-legal sports cars that deliver exceptional levels of mechanical purity and driver involvement.

Our first vehicle - the LM Coupe - has been designed and engineered entirely in-house over the last several years. This is an automotive startup made by enthusiasts for enthusiasts; our cars are designed to be driven. We are looking forward to our public opening in the near future, and tapping into California’s incomparable car culture.
