Is it just me, or is it hot to watch your better half drive your car
for the past 2 days Iv needed to use my wifes wagon (toyota matrix) to hawl dirt for landscaping. yesterday we where both going home from her work place and i just couldnt take my eyes off of my car [damn my car looks and sounds bad as* and it just looks that much hotter seeing her driving it] I would even role down the windows of the matrix so i could hear the rumble as she excelerated from the stop light. while I was on the freeway she passes me in traffic and blows me a kiss. (ahhh... yes, im in love)
Am I the only one that feels this way?

I guess this probably makes me even less cool, but I am fine with that.

My wife shifts sooo much better than me. I learned manual when I was 26 while she learned on a bug, so that's my excuse. She doesn't know how to heel-toe (yet)

I don't let my wife drive my car very often. She complains that the clutch is too stiff. She revs quite a bit from a dead stop. I'm sure if she drives it more she'd get better at it She is pretty good at driving stick. She's always had a stick before the Bimmer. A couple of times she asked if she could drive, it's kind of funny, she has no experience driving a car with the kind of power the wagon has. So she'll get it rolling and do a couple 2,3,4 pulls and this big grin goes across her face. Then she looks over let out wooo and a head knod. It's funny. She's a godd passenger. She enjoys sprinted twisties, scares the death out of her, but after a good set she laughs and giggles. Her normal response is "Jeff, jeff, JEFF, Slo, Ahhhhh, WOOOOOOO, laugh. Kind of like a roller coaster.
