Who is Cristy Lee?

Known for hosting shows around automobiles, Lee's has a long and impressive resume as the host of shows like 'Celebrity IOU: Joyride', 'Garage Squad', 'Shift Talkers', 'All Girls Garage' and 'Best of Top Gear'. In a conversation with Inside Hook, she spoke about how her passion for cars began. "I am originally from Daytona Beach, Florida, so racing was also a big part of my early days. My dad was a shop owner and mechanic so I have always been around cars and motorcycles," she said.

"I remember looking at car magazines in my dad’s shop and there were a few cars that I kind of lusted over, like the 1989 Anniversary Lamborghini Countach, which is not a normal vehicle for a little girl to be dreaming of. As far as toys when I was that age, I also had a Barbie Ferrari." she added.

Her love for automobiles extends to bikes as well, as she spoke about her very first one. "My first bike was a 1996 Kawaski ZX-6E, it was the touring edition of this super slick superbike. It was not as sick as that premier edition, but it was my first bike, so I still loved it. I called it Shamu, because it was so huge," she added. "I dropped it a bunch of times — it was hard to pick up because it weighed so much. I got it right after I graduated high school, so pretty much as soon as I could get a motorcycle license." she added.
