Aside from that, the deceptive perception of speed produced by the Z meant I had to constantly remind him of our 70 mph bursts in a 25mph residential area laden with pigs. It was truly nerve racking, but he enjoyed the drive so much that I really can't say it wasn't worth it.
This is the primary reason no one drives my car, period. I know my car, the 'A-driver' doesn't. I let a 'friend' drive my 67 Chevelle while I was sitting in the passenger seat. He promptly spun out on some sand, ran the car off the road, screwed up the alignment and wrinkled a fender. To add insult to injury, he didn't even offer to pay for the damage.


My car, my money. You want to drive one like it, hit the dealer.
P's_Z, NISMO IX and ChopsZ like this.
