I taught my wife to drive a stick in my Evo. That was good for lots of burnt clutch smells.

I'll let the girlfriend drive my car to school in Atlanta some days. She knows not to come home if she wrecks it, curbs a wheels, etc.

My wife drives the Evo sometimes. The open dump scares her a little, but she loves the boost. She will accelerate and shift as soon as it spools though ... she's a little too scared to stay in it.

Tried to get my wife to learn to drive it, she always says no. She says if she breaks something she would never hear the end of it.

one girl EVER drove my evo ONE time and she got clocked doing 140mph on the parkway. she doesnt know how she did it either. luckily i was following her and didnt have to deal with the cop speech.

I let my girl drive my RA a few months back at night and it was raining. Never gripped the o-**** handle so hard ever in my entire life. she loved it tho, especially the paddle shifters, it helps her learn how a manual car drives without the clutch

My girl says that she "doesn't get it" and that "its just a possession". It makes me sad inside

my wife took my mum shopping in our evo yesterday. half boost in 1st gear was enough for my poor mother to tell her to slow down
