for all you **** guys about letting others drive your Z, dont forget they have to drive them after the tire feathering TSB is done

You're screwed either way

 

I would let others drive my Z; as long as they are capable manual drivers, and are intelligent and respectful about the way they will drive the car.

 

Females? Absolutely, positively, NOT

Family - w/ me in car on VERY rare occassion, yes

Friends - if I'm drunk

 

I with the guys here that say "only with those that are experienced with a manual." Newbies need not apply. It's def true that driving a Honda/Acura manual is a different experience from driving this car... less forgiving I guess. My lil sis owns a Prelude SH, and I'm willing to let her try the Z.

 

I let my twin sister drive it and of course my dad, cause he pays for it . I never let anyone drive any of the cars i've driven. Friends used to ask me all the time and i had to constantly say no. The only people i will let drive my car, Z or not, are people i know and have driven with many times so that i know they are good drivers, but i haven't met any of them yet haha. So just those two mentioned above get to drive the Z

 

I had to use my wife's Jeep last week to take our two Labs to the vet so she took the Z to work. That was about the longest day of my life. She is a pretty good driver...except for that time a few years back where she pulled a U turn in front of a Chevy Astro van and nearly killed us in her GTI...Amazingly, we both walked away although the GTI didn't.

The down side? She loved driving the car so much she wants to take it more often.

 

Yes. I let some of my friends drive my car.
But only whom knows how to "drive" a manual car and whom I trust that he/she at least got enough skills to keep the car on the road
Of course I'm sitting right next at the passenger seat so I can watch him/her not doing anything stupid.

 

I've let a couple friends drive my Z. One being my friend who taught me how to drive stick on his sentra se-r and the other was my friend who has a wrx so we traded rides for a couples drives. And of course my dad drives it (after all he's paying so it's really HIS Z), though that's only on a rare occasion.

My dad drove it home from the dealer since I didn't know how to drive stick. Other than that... no!

 

ahah that sounds about right..
well i would let my friends (close ones) drive it.. just not around without me IN the car.

 

i let my dad to drive..i mean he let me drive his car... (of course, because he pays for it.. )

i agree with first part(females) and

I STRONGLY AGREE WITH THIRD ONE(FRIENDS)

 

i let my friend and roomie drive it once while i was drunk. in less than 1 mile he stalled it 3 times on a hill leaving an apt complex. then one more time parking. i could have done it better drunk. oh and he's been driving stick for 4 years (civic si).

my little brother has driven it once.

then there's the body shop, nissan, and best buy

i avoid letting people drive my car

 

Nah. I just let them sit and drool while we roam the block. I also enlighten them with the kewl options that the other competition don't have!
