How many of you (men) let your wife drive your 997 Turbo?
#32
My wife used to drive mine occasionally but is not real comfortable with the manual on all of our hills. She has always had an SL so never had a huge desire to drive the Turbo. The Bentley is hers so now she never drives it - her choice not mine. I have absolutely no problem with her driving it if she would choose to.

For the record....
My 997 Turbo is Tiptronic S, so no issues with shifting....Also she had a Boxster before her Carrera and it was a 6 speed also....So I cannot use that one.

Back in 83 I had a 75 911S. Wifey went too fast around a bend in the Highway, spun out and hit the guard rail hard. Car went up on two wheels almost flipped came down and broke off both the wheels on that side of the car. Ironically I was following her in my company car. I saw the whole thing. Thankfully she was fine. She has not asked to drive any of my Porsche’s since then.

Nice wife
I wish my wife would drive my car and frequently. It would be a nice sport-hobby to share. But she prefers her own car. Fortunately my son likes to drive the TT every chance he gets. I enjoy you guys who share this interest with your spouse. Cool.

NO CHANCE.
My wife has been driving my new RS6 for the last 9 months and there isnt a wheel without scuffing on, and lots of bodywork scratches! I have been driving various 997s solidly for the last 5 years and not one scratch on any of them.

At the risk of getting blasted, I thought I would ask....And to be politically correct...How many of you (women) let your husband drive your 997 Turbo?
My wife simply asked the other day...Or stated...I would like to drive that car sometimes....Now mind you she has a 996 Cabriolet and Cayenne S...But I pictured my turbo with no front spoiler, a Coach purse imprint in the leather seats, and a Nordstroms parking ticket in the glove box
Just asking for fun...Not trying to be a pig or anything...So take it lightly please! And women...No offense...I love my beautiful spouse!

Sound just like my wife so resistance is not-futile

She is afraid....its too low and it has Werks1 carbon fiber chin spoiler. She drives a 98 C2S with euro springs and has torn off her chin spoiler more then once...not to mention she has had a couple new front bumpers!

When my wife wants to drive my car I’m always the winner at the end of our negotiations…<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

A great negotiation tool…
