There are only a few people I really trust to drive my car (a few family members and a friend) other than that I try to avoid anyone driving my car when possible. If I have to have a tech drive it at the dealership or another shop I always try to watch them and I also remind them how to put it into reverse because I have seen someone put it in 6th instead of reverse before . I almost had a heart attack, but he caught himself.

MPG indicator after test drives: 4 MPG :/

This, I was driving my friend to school because they have free printing. We hit i think a buck 30 but i was fine with it felt normal, friend was grabbing onto seat for deal life saying wtf was that did we just hit 200?!
and i said...:ugh2: Yes....

Never! people don't care about your stuff and worst of all, they don't understand the concept of having nice, clean, well taken care of, things ... not to mention they get annoyed when you tell them to be careful, how to park, and not to get close to the curbs, etc, etc, so why even go through that

Also if older ladies who wanna drive the Z get jealous I kinda laugh, cuz usually I sense the love from them so i dont mind. :tup:

yeah, even if you are just giving people a ride is sometimes challenging, my now exgirlfriend wanted a ride to walmart and got all mad at me because i made her walk by parking all the way back in the parking lot and it was raining. I'm not parking my car anywhere near the front of walmart rain or no rain!

I don't have a problem with someone driving my Z at all. It's just a car!

I taught my 13 year old daughter how to drive a stick in this car (she was a quick learner) and no damage done. I'll save the donuts and burnouts for later:-)

Guess you don't give a $hit about your Z's resale value either.

I let a few people drive it, but only a few people I trust. It also helps me determine who I can trust to treat it with respect if I need someone to drive it unsupervised.
