I think the only other person I have let drive my car is one of my friends that also has an evo. I wouldn't let anyone else touch it. Almost thought about teaching my wife to drive stick in it...but that wasn't the brightest idea so she will have to find another car to learn on

I let only a select few people drive it. GF and Dad. Both have been driving stick since they were 16. I love to follow my G/F when shes driving it. It's so funny when guys pull-up next to her and do the normal look over then they do a double take. Surprisingly most guys do something stupid like rev there car up to try to impress her some how. The best time i remember was when a guy in like a 94/95 mustang GT was at a light next to her and her friend. He proceded to give them a look, and a rev. I could see both of them put her hands up and make a gesture to him like he was small, then she let it bounce on the 2-step for a second or two. I don't know if the couple fire ***** from the exhaust scared him or gesture did cause he wouldn't look back over at either off them for the rest of the light! I had a good laugh.

My policy is you don't drive my car, i don't drive yours. you never know if a spin around the block could end up in crashing into a pole or going off of the street....

does any one feel like thier car is a amusement park ride? i just bought a used evo last week and evey science i got it it seems like every one thinks they can just get in line and take it for a spin. from my friends to my familey everyone has to drive it. it kinda pisses me off and i feel really bad telling people that i dont what them driving it. but if i telll them no they cant drive it they get all pised off like im the biggest a$$ hole. It wouldnt be that bad but every time someone new gets in it all they do is trash it. they fly up and down back roads shifting at 6k every time. ill yell at them but they dont get the picture. my car has a ACT clutch in it and is kinda trickey for anyon who realy never drove a car like it before. it just pisses me OFF! i didnt pay $23,000 for other people to drive a evo i payed $23,000 for me to drive it. does anyone else feel the same as i do?
They just ask why I didn't get a vette instead of a weedwhacker.
