Vyvyan Lynn is an independent journalist specializing in auto writing. Her background is -- well, she's not a mechanic, but more so a student of metal and horsepower.
With a "kid in the candy store" mentality, Vyvyan checks out new concept cars and cutting-edge technology knowing that designers make cars that are not staid, so she will always be a student. She really likes the coursework.
Vyvyan's feminine demeanor doesn't speak auto freak to the casual acquaintance, but she can't help being raised in a family of NASCAR fans. She was doomed to her fate and finally embraced her now dog-eared copies of Motor Trend. She graduated from Berry College in Rome, Georgia. Vyvyan has been a full-time writer for ten years. She and her two children live in rural Georgia.
