Meet Noisy Girl (2011 CR-Z)
Disclaimer: ALL mechanic work done by me. No friends. No shops. 100% all me. So things may fall apart. Things may break. Things may not look “professional” but dammit she’s my Noisy Girl and she slaps tracks! My body has been badly beaten, cut, and burned A LOT working on this car for over 2 yrs. She’s not the fastest, but she’s mine. The car culture should be about the love you have towards your car and others, the appreciation… not who is faster. Because there’s always going to be someone faster.
