I let her drive it. She is as much of a car enthusiast as I am. She says I make her nervous when I go with her though. She doesn't drive it too often and my main concern is that she is not used to the power delivery...boost + corner + wet pavement + unfamiliarity....don't want to think about it...(I know because it happened to me when I first got it. ) She knows how much I like the evo though so she is really good to it.

The only people to drive my baby is me and I let my dad take it easy through some mild corners. The only way I'd let my girl drive is, well theres alot of criteria to meet lol

I let my GF drive it the second day after I bought it. She's not used to the clutch thing but shes getting better! She thinks she wants a standard now for a DD but thats not gonna happen lol. She has a little previous experience when I taught her to drive my 2g GST.

I had to vote... NO!!!
Kelli has only driven my car once! That is when I got arrested for going 140mph in a 50mph zone. The cop said I had two choices... 1) She drive the car and follow us to the Jail. 2) The tow truck break the front of my car tying to get it on the truck and then throw it into the impound... I chose to let he drive the car. She launched the car off the side of the interstate with my triple plate and almost created a wreck. She will never get behind the wheel of my car again.

She drives mine every day that im at work. Im military and am gone for days at a time, so she always says that she cant just let her sit in the garage. she does perfectly fine even with the ACT extreme pressure plate. The only thing that worries me is the fact that she drives like a cat with its tail on fire. For example she was driving me home from a mouth surgery and in order to pass someone decided it would be a good idea to do 125+ just to get around a truck.

She drove it a couple of times, when I was a little too tipsy to drive. I'm not going to get another DUI for being .01 over the limit. That cost me thousands of $$$. I could have bought a built engine, turbo, etc, etc with all the money I gave Colorado. I'm grateful she knows how to drive a stick

When my wife can drive my dd civic with no issues we will move her up.
She did drive my old eclipse, thank god it was fwd.
She launched the car (hard), I put it in neutral turned off the key made her get back into the passenger side. And we haven't talked about it since.
