The fact she started her passion from motorcycles made her 110% cool

Finally a calm and down to earth car person who doesn't start by shouting "hey guys!!" - The calm zen of watching this... Would enjoy all and any content like this. Imagine having a youtuber with actual car industry knowledge and education. She represents the real car people you meet at car meets. Quite understated encyclopedias with real passion.

Joanna is a top petrolhead, great engineer with fabulous taste in cars.. happy to know her

This will save your channel, focused interviews with Women in Automobile Industry. It's something we need. So glad she has her chance to tell her story, Joana is amazing, a gem.

CT - hire this woman. She'll save your channel.

A Cappuccino forever car and saying that the Sera is perfect for a rainy day when you can hear the rain hit the glass roof… it’s just cool seeing other people who are the same kind of weird as you… Good job, this was a great interview

That M3 is absolute daily-driver goals, great colour, perfect wheels, MANUAL.. love it

A breath of fresh air. I could happily sit over a cuppa with this gal and chat motors for a good few hours. Good choice in motors. I’d happily entertain both of her current rides. Very different but equally engaging in their own way. Would be nice to see more content like this.

Proper gear head who knows her stuff. Respect.

Great taste!!! I had a red Cappuccino in the 1990s as my everyday car - it would do 250 mile motorway trips for my job, no problem. Love that you've rescued this one from the tin worm!

Best CT video since you F’ed it all up. I’ll remain subbed for now, more of this.

I have had multiple Skylines, mitsubishi VR4 galant, VL turbo with forged motor and more, and now have a 1996 Cappuccino and i can honestly say this is my favourite car EVER, the most enjoyable car to drive. Have doubled the power output and done a tone of interior, suspension and exterior mods and its awesome. Am yet to find someone keep up with my through the hills, im sure there are lots that can but yeah, its heaps quick in the twisties.

I like her passion and knowledge for cars and bikes. Shes beautiful too.

Those are theabsolute baddest ass rims I have ever seen on a Cappucino. Can relate - I've been through a whole ton of cars but the biggest smile I ever had on my face behind the wheel was my humble red 1991 MXx5. Which was, of course, restored and tastefully modified with a bit of a 1960s vibe on custom offset gold Enkei RPF1s. Nobody ever got mad at that car, ever.

Receipe for success: beautiful, knowledgable and passionate. I can watch her talk about cars all day long.

As a ex cappuccino owner myself i can confirm, she has got an awesome taste!!! What a dream women

She was watching Initial D... it's enough, she's in, she's one of us!

Instant crush, this girl is sooo cool!

What an incredibly lovely and charming young lady. No doubt she will go great places by following her passion. Well done.

Absolutely love your attitude. It's about you first, not anyone else. Actually the Cappucino makes a lot of sense, even with the funny roof. I also like to feel the drive more than anything, prefering some perfect corners over too much car for the road.

Parabéns Joana!! I share the same love for E46M3 and small cars, and you share your name with my young daughter!!

My wife is terrified of driving my turbo’d Miata and she has a pilots license for ultralights. This lovely woman needs a permanent place on the channel. So cool, composed and knowledgeable!

This might just be my perfect woman ;) "I just sat down watching Initial-D that morning ..." confirmed

Very interesting lady from my country, but clueless about the portuguese car scene apparently, I belong to several classic car clubs, do a lot of track days where "Max tunning" cars never ever get close to and that are super chill with great nice older blokes, true gentlemen drivers, there is a huge offroading scene as well for both 4x4 and bike enthusiasts and lets not forget that 800 thousand people, mostly portuguese and spanish came to watch the WRC rally of Portugal this year, I doubt we have that many Max tunning "chavs" over here... Interesting interview and would love to see her presenting more stuff tho. Wish her great luck on her endeavours.

A true petrolhead.... The wheels on the Cap are perfect!!

Og car throttle fans remember readers rides thanks for bringing it back

Senna was the man!

Excellent taste, great presentation. Very interesting person. Really enjoyed watching her walk us through this.

Great video, more like this please!

Ive also had some cool and fun cars and thought my cappuccino was perhaps the most fun car ive owned. I often tracked my lotus exige daily driver, owned an R32 GTR at the same time, initial D garage :) and a 73 2002tii. All are fun in different ways. But the Cappo was the most fun. It even got 40mpg full throttle everyday. Fill ups were less than $20 (USD). Top down, 8000+ rpm, RWD manual, turbo noises. Took it on a 10hr trip each way to Miami. Baby S2000.

The story of how she bought the Cappucino and the place she was in... So encouraging to hear it.

Awesome interview! Fantastic follow on X too. Saving and restoring that Cappuccino is next level love for cars.

Really interesting interview. All the best petrolheads start with Minis. I can totally relate to getting more expensive or more refined machinery, but always going back to the small and quirky cars.

Wakes up and watches an episode of initial D before going to her big girl job of automotive engineering and has a nardi steering wheel in her cappuccino. I hope she finds true love and wish her all the best because she’s awesome. 👏🏽 🎉

What a good story, an inspirational lady. Love the cappuccino as a JDM fan. Would like to see the next journey of what she'll replace the BM with. Hopefully something cool and JDM

Those wheels are just so right! Lovely owner, would make for a good presenter on here as others pointed out ❤

Love Joana's passion! nice video!

The e46 M3 has one of the best ever naturally aspirated engines.

Awesome video 👏🏽 a real car enthusiast

This was a good interview

I know it's subjective but she seems to be like the holy grail amongst women, she has it all. And the photo of her on the old Ducati.... DAMN! No words i can add to make it more perfect

The wheels are awesome!

Thought I watched Gears and Gazoline. Good job!

More of her & the cappuccino please 👍

great interview

Fantastic video, really good interview with @joanafidalgo!! She lives and breathes automotive and you couldn't meet a nicer person, and I'm proud to call her a mentor and friend! Well done Joana!! 🎉🎉❤

Looks like a miniature '84 Corvette C4 with those wheels. Love it.

She is actual gem💎❤

What a great Girl you are Joanne, so ture to yourself. the world needs more people like you. Love and happens from Ireland 😎

She looks beautiful

You go girl! What great taste in cars!

The title checks out, I would love to have her M3. thats my poster car. :(

More content like this please!

What a list of cars, excellent taste

Seen her on Becky Evans channel where she picked the m3 up after some work

Great to hear more of your story Jo, keep up the good work 👍😎

she seems like my ideal car girl, so cool and cute!

I'm 6'4" and I love little cars, currently have a fiat 500e, would love to have an AZ-1 but I think I'm just too big for it since it's not a convertible... 😢something like a honda beat or cappuccino is on my radar for sure, though.

Great video. It only leaves me with one question: How can I marry her?

I think i'm in love !

I suspect she is the result of a lab experience where they mixed Vicky Butler Henderson genes with a little bit of chris harris. Definitely the type of woman that car enthusiasts really are hoping to see on the screen!

She seems so cool!

A great video and a great outlook on life.

Facts guys listen to comments 😢

Great taste in cars

Great interview and superb taste

“I remember sitting down one morning and watching initial D and it was the episode with the Suzuki cappuccino…” ummm, did we just become best friends? YUP!

This woman has got great taste in cars !

Tuga Power🇵🇹

I’m in love 😅😅

She must be ai created.. 😍

Great

Milkers are on point too.

Lol the comments!

She's awesome looking and petrolhead - her man is happiest person.

❤❤❤ so 🔥🔥

Where is the m3 advertised? ...interested to buy

It's not always about power and speed.

Wow ❤

No need to be shy or introverted, Very pretty woman , Who would be most guys dream wife

*Why haven't we seen Joana before now? Why isn't she my wife to be? Seriously though, I could listen to her for hours!*

She brought up initial D ❤.

More content like this please. What a great segment from a passionate petrolhead and automotive professional.

Wow, what a lady ❤️‍🔥🤯

Can I put a ring on it???

Um Mulher Bonita e com Bom Gosto!😃 Tudo o que um homem Deseja!😉 E com uma garagem de sonho!😌

Cappuccino with a nose lift😮

i guess you forgot the ND filter for your B cam 😆

Similarly I enjoy driving my e30 318is > e46M.

Remember it’s just her opinion😊 There are many other experts that have other favourite cars 🚗 for me personally it’s the Miata ❤!!! P.S.: Senna Sempre 💪

You might like "Sarah -n- Tuned"'s KZfaq channel. She does reviews, but also her own rebuilds / restorations... she's an ex USAF tech with OCD that loves doing her own work on her cars. Enjoy.

Great video. Great subject. Her enthusiasm for cars is wonderful.

Great video, would lines to see more of her projects… ✌🏼

❤🌷

It won her many license tests. 😂

I firmly agree that if you're worried about reducing the value of the car simply by driving it, it's not a good car. A work of art, yes, but a useful and fun car, no.

M3 - 9,000 RPM gauge Suzuki - 12,000 RPM gauge

Bmw with red n orange lights on the dash xD

Did anyone notice that she is unusually attractive ... and smart ... and a motorhead.

Cappuccino is just practical,i mean yeah why not for a city daily car tho.
