Would you let your mom drive your Evo?

Due to some circumstances my mom has been driving my Evo for the past week while I drive her car. Just wondering who else would be ok with letting their moms drive their Evo. Mine isn't exactly drivability friendly either...

my 67 year old mom had a WRX and drives my EVO when ever she wants to and enjoys the "spool up and BOV sounds" her DD is a 05 CRV but she misses the power the WRX and loves the EVO for her "Go FAST" desires.

Haha that's awesome. Mine just hit 50 and she loves it as well. She doesn't want to trade back except she hates having to put 93 in it

My mom doesn't drive stick so not happening anytime soon. Either way she hates when when I hit the slightest amount of boost or take a turn ever so slightly faster than the "normal" speed people take them at, so I doubt she would want to even if she did drive manual.

Yes I would. My mom is the one who taught me how to drive the evo. She's the one who test drove my evo and drove it home from the dealer the night I bought it! =) she used to love it before I started modding it haha

my mom drove my car the night i picked it up from AMS - the last round of mods that pushed it over the 500 whp mark...

i couldn't be there due to work and it needed to get picked up.. needless to say it was the last time she drove it

my car is fair game to anyone to drive it as long as they have the money to pay if they break it and have good insurance... if you built the car right and have it tuned right, whether i hit 30lbs of boost or my best friend does, whats the diff....

for god sakes, we are driving a lancer with a good engine and awd... its not like we are driving porsche's or ferrari's or lambo's....

I would 100% let my mom drive my evo with the Twin Plate in it. Just so she could roll it around town. Hell I would show here the 2step and NLTS.

50? Driving an Evo? No way!

My mom is 71. She has never sat in my IX.
