My wife was following me in our van the other day. She said I looked just like a kid in a roller coaster, what with the grin and the quick steering and all. But she refuses to drive my car. She knows how to use a clutch but doesn't like to, and she knows that if anything happened to the car she wouldn't hear the end of it.

Trust is the key. Hell, I let my best friend use my S for a month now and I don't worry about it. He's car been in the shop so I let him borrow my S. I don't drive it much anyway so why not let your best friend that you "trust" use it.

I agree with SPEED when I see, hear my car go by. puts a huge grin on my face!!

I have friends I trust and let drive, and others know where they stand and just don't ask. Just about any of my relatives have driven that want to. My Mom loves to drive it (just cruising though). Heck one of friends got to drive it the first night I had it, she can drive stick better then most my guy friends though

I allow close friends who I know are good stick drivers to drive my car as long as I'm in the passenger seat. I don't think I could comfortably let someone drive it when I wasn't in it. I let a friend ride my 750 Ninja once; he totaled it. Never again.
