Do You Let the Woman Drive Your F-Body?

**clovenhooves** · 08-29-2009, 01:10 PM

Woman = wife, girlfriend. Please forgive me if somebody else has asked before.

**blackSS01** · 08-29-2009, 01:13 PM

I have but after H/C.....Not a chance

**2000SSM6** · 08-29-2009, 01:16 PM

GF can't drive a stick, sure can ride one though. Not even sure I would let drive the car if she could.

**tep98ws6** · 08-29-2009, 01:25 PM

I am the woman, but bf gets to drive her sometimes when i cant AKA heels + clutch = difficult

**clovenhooves** · 08-29-2009, 01:31 PM

Never thought about that. What about taking the heels off and driving barefoot? It's legal in some places, but I have never tried it.

I wouldn't allow the woman to drive my car except in an emergency. She couldn't be some new girlfriend, either.

1. Allie can't drive a manual
2. She's afraid of the power
3. She's afraid of accidentally hitting a curb or worse

Even if it wasn't for these factors, I might have to think long and hard about letting her drive Nymphadora.

My mom drove the shit outta her '94 m6 t/a and 300zx turbo back in the day, so to her yes. A girlfriend, maybe on a cold day in hell.

barefoot is just as difficut sometime when you have short legs and have to move the seat up real far, but it is possible when there is no other option

I voted yes.

I probably wouldn't let her take it by herself on long distances alone, but if maybe I had too much to drink or something, sure, why not? Mine's an A4 though, so it's easy to drive anyway.

Only one who's ever driven my car but me in the two years I got it has been my close female friend who is my roommate. I let her drive it to work a few times, which is literally ONE mile down the road. I don't think she's ever had it over 25mph.

I'd also let my mother drive it, she's a good driver. I let her drive my '98 that I had in '00-'01, she loved it because it was an M6. She actually seemed a bit dissapointed when I showed her my current one, the A4.

If we're taking my car... I'm driving. No exceptions.

**Mean Green Z28** · 08-29-2009, 02:18 PM

used to let the wife (then g/f) drive my Z28 when it was an auto, then when it was a LS1/TH350 car ... but the T/A is manual so she can't drive it. I don't mind people I trust driving my car. Yes, it's my baby and all but if I know you can drive and are cautious, I may throw you the key. Heck, I'd let my mum drive mine if she can actually get the clutch to work (lol, she'd have to stand on it), she drives a stick and is a great driver.

**ArcticZ06** · 08-29-2009, 02:43 PM

did once

**SteveCZ28** · 08-29-2009, 02:46 PM

i also did once. and had a very long discussion with her about curbs before she took off....came back with the right front ground effect piece hanging....last time she had the keys to my baby

**raynor139** · 08-29-2009, 02:50 PM

My mom and best friend are the only ones who id let drive it. My mom because she has owned more muscle cars then i can count and my best friend b/c she used to race cars with her grandfather and has taken racing classes before.

**AfterYou** · 08-29-2009, 02:55 PM

My mom yes, well i dont really trust her and her name is on the title so im forced she always hits curbs in her minivan, but back in the day shes and my dad had every year of trans ams, my older sister yes because i trust her with anything GF..thats a big NO
shes afraid to look at it because she thinks she would scratch it

**thearborbarber** · 08-29-2009, 02:59 PM

I'm not married to Danica Patrick but she drives pretty good.

**JB454** · 08-29-2009, 03:41 PM

Wife will not touch a stick (car). I have offered to teach and she has no interest. If I pick my mom up, first words out of her mouth is don't scare me. So I fly mine solo. Wife won't touch my 91 z28 auto either (24,xxx miles and was my late fathers). She says she afraid to scratch it. I did buy her a really nice 94 lumina Z34 w/ 62xxx miles , and she hits the gas pretty hard in her hot rod.

**86 IROC-Z** · 08-29-2009, 04:02 PM

Yes, when it worked.

don't give a shit, its an auto, I drink a lot.

**silverWS6** · 08-29-2009, 04:08 PM

My gf used to drive my 98 a little, its an a4 and now my mom wants it

But the 02 is a m6 so mom wont drive it she says its too loud and scary

**B34M3R** · 08-29-2009, 04:24 PM
