Are the girlfriend or wife allowed to drive the porsche?

Hmmmmmmm. Should I feel bad? My girlfriend has an 03 Mini Cooper S which I drive all the time. She was going to buy a Prius, but i convinced her to buy the Cooper and taught her how to drive a manual 6 speed. She drives great. But, I won't let her drive the 03 996 C2. LOL. She asks me every once in awhile but I wont give in. Even though I drive her car all the time. Anyone in a similar situation?

I realize it's your baby, but srsly - it's a C2, not a 959 . . .

I let all of my girlfriends drive my Enzo.

i would let her drive it around the block before it gets ugly.....

"You don't even let me drive your car!!!"
"What?? I cheated on you, what the hell does my car have to do with that?"
"doesn't matter, you never let me drive your car!"

yes..women are like that

maybe offer her to drive it when you guys go somewhere together. ya...ya...i know. the men don't like riding co-pilot and letting the lady drive...lol!

but, it may scratch her itch to drive it. or, it could go the opposite way and she'll just keep asking.

just don't drive hers anymore?

good luck! i don't think this one will be a pretty situation no matter what. =)

if she does....then he just has to act like he doesn't notice that she is, or doesn't care. eventually, it will get to her and she'll cave. everyone wants "some" eventually, right? i say, don't LET the girl think she can hold it over the guy.

out think 'em! lol!

No matter what happens all I get is " It wasn't my fault, all I did was ......." So the answer is NO, my wife doesn't drive my Porsches.
