Wives driving Cobras
Do any of your wives like driving your Cobra?
Today was Michelle's debut at our local Coffee & Cars. She had a blast! http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...n_rearview.JPG How about you guys? |
My wife drove my ERA once, she liked it. She will not be driving the FIA, unless it is around the paddock as she does not have a race license.

|
The wife won't drive mine. I don't ask her anymore...lol
|
According to Title IX, will you be setting up a "Husbands Driving Cobras"? :LOL:

Thanks, Pat.
Rod, you lost me... |
She is scared of it but i gave her my vette and she and her hot friends drive around with the top off and love when they get Cat Calls. I think she would crash the cobra by the end of our street, not joking.

No, way. My wife has never met a car she couldn't dent.
Last year I bought her a newer car, and she ran the front end up onto a curb 20 minutes after leaving the dealership. And I really do mean 20 minutes. She has never driven a car for more than a month without putting some kind of body damage on it. She backed in to a dumpster with my '70 Torino Cobra. "I didn't see it." |
Can't even get my wife to sit in the passenger seat, she thinks my Cobra is some evil sounding beast.
|
Nope - and never will drive any of my cars - she doesn't have a driving license and refuses to get one - which is a good thing as she would swerve into oncoming traffic to avoid killing a bird or any other creature.
|
Like so many people now-a-days she can't drive a stick shift and my attempts to teach her back in the late 70s were a mixture of comedy and calamity. She swore off ever trying again. Heck - she will rarely ride it in.
|
My wife has driven every muscle car we have owned except for the Cobra it makes her too nervous. She enjoys riding in it as long as I don't get to frisky.
|
My wife doesn't even like to ride in it, much less drive it. She says it's too brutal and it hurt's her neck when accelerating.

I told my wife I would never let her drive my car, so she made me buy her one. Drives it just as hard as I drive mine and she won't let me drive hers. Go figure!

Not married but did take a female friend for a ride.
She's a salesperson at the local Porsche/Audi dealership. After about a 20 minute ride I pulled into a parking lot, got out and had to convince her to drive. She did and was rather timid at first but after a bit of acclimation she became more comfortable, not crazy just settling in. She did really well. We were on 4 lane industrial road at a traffic light. Instructed her to roll away from the light and mash it at about 2,500. She did and the tires lit up as expected. I was impressed at her control but not as much as when she grabbed 2nd gear and set me back in the seat. I was in love, she had a huge grin. But then she's not your "normal" girl. Multiple Porsche & Audi driving schools, drove everything that came through the dealership and ran sport bikes at 180 during track events. I knew what I was letting loose. What good are the toys if you can't share them? Jim |
My Wifey likes to drive out on back roads when the corn fields are low, so she can see the deer coming to see us.
