You have any idea how funny it is when i walk up to my Asian buddy and say, "dude... i got smoked by a grandma."

My bet is it is not a crisis, just time for her to get something she wants for a change. Go get it mom & if you got the extra change, slap a TT on it and smoke your son’s 350Z!

i think i will take some others advice and leave it up to her. shes capable of deciding what she wants. she wants me to test drive it though, no matter what she gets (her direct words. "i would never buy it without having you test drive it first") so i guess thats worth something.
frankly i would get great satisfaction in knowing my mom could SMOKE my Z.
this isnt the first time something like this has happened though. my other car is a 1978 Corvette Silver Anniversary with a 505 block. the day i bought it and drove it home, she went out and bought a 69 Charger just to compete.
if you haven't noticed, we are car people, and she is a little off her rocker when it comes to cars.

So NOT TRUE
My neighbor has a SL55 AMG, her tag says BYE 55.
She bought it for her 55th birthday, and she will race anyone. About a month ago i saw some guy's in a pretty nice looking Vet toying with her on the HWY. The guy's were messing with her and laughing and pointing.... Untill she smoked them

Tell your mom if she want's it then get it! Nothing wrong with a lady enjoying a nice ride.
Cheers
Kevin
