personally, if im friends with someone and they can drive stick, the first thing they have to do when we hang out is drive the S. i feel like its so great and special that i have to let as many people as possible enjoy it (as long as i know they can take good care of it) ive also taught a couple friends to drive stick on it. I also offer my dad the keys as much as possible cuz he loves to drive it but i think hes afraid to ask lol. mom too.

i know some guys are super protective and wouldnt let the stig press the unlock button on the keyfob, whats up with that guys? be a little more generous and less paranoid!

opinions?

Sorry, my S is the one material possession that I have that is much more than a material possession. No one will be in the driver seat if the engine is on besides myself. It's not about trust, selfish/selflessness, abilities, etc., it's the simple fact that it is representative of something much larger than just a car.

I let my dad drive my S when he needs to but i know that he babies every car he ever drives. I dont like letting my older brother drive my car becuase he likes to drive it like its a race car. He talks loads of crap about my torque less Honda (he drives a subi) but will drive the S whenever he has the chance. Other than that i never let regular friends drive my car. If i ever do i will ride shot gun for sure.

I do SOMETIMES, but not for more than 3 minutes. I let my dad drive it, just so I could hear what my exhaust sounded like from the outside.

I had few GFs in the past who where lucky enough to drive my S with the stick.

I have also switched S2000s with a fellow owner on track to compare my setup from his stock setup. We gave a lot of respect to each other.

- I let my Mom drive it once (she picked it up from my work when a co-worker alerted me that "people were stalking it" in the parking lot)

- I let my Dad drive it once (home from a Dairy Queen, I could tell he WANTED to, but didn't want to ask)

- I let my husband test drive it before I bought it, but he hasn't driven it since. (Hey, I got to drive the RX7 twice in 5 years, he can wait a bit)

I hate letting other people drive my car, I'm actually getting pretty nervous b/c I have inspection this month I don't even want my mechanic to drive it.
