lol. as much as my late wife loved the cars, she was too respectful of them. she was an suv kinda girl (ie; the 4-runner was hers...like claiming shotgun). since we lived the fancy-free life of no kids, she let me drive the graphite everywhere. i always offered her the opportunity to drive. i guess why drive when you've got a past-wrenching, unique car husband. i've owned around 50 cars ('56 packard to '78 mazda cosmo...all ltd #'s vehicles). i think she was *respectful* of the power and what position the acceralator may be in. so, she just deferred (i think she could have handled it no problems). too late now. rip, i miss her everyday. just to show she was ready, she kept the miasto ltd. model nearby in the bedroom. lol. she's the reason i have two stock srt-6's. as for who's driven them other than me? techs and wheel folks at my 5*dealer. of course, i look at the odo when i take them home. they know better with the low-mileage stuff.
