Yeah, whenever I do this, their head flies back into the seat and they get the "permagrin."

Actually when I do that with my wife in the car her face looks like "You are such a immature idiot" But who cares what people think anyway.

I took a friend from work out last week with the new 181mm pulley installed. He asked if I could turn off the traction control on the car. I told him how ours works. Then I did a max accellerate on the freeway onramp to show him what she felt like. At 100 I pulled it back. He was VERY surprised at how much power that little V6 had and said, 'I guess you dont want to turn off the TC if you can spin the wheels that much!" heheheh

My girlfriend said the funniest thing when i took her for the first ride in it and punched it on the onramp. "My tummy feels wierd... do it again."

When I took mine for the first road test with the wife I hit the loud buttom and all she could say was "Holy S***, looks like I get use to using the mirors". I believe that meant that I could buy the car. So I did. Still see very few on the road.

I took off from a stop sign with some speed the other day and chirped the tires for a few feet. The wife called me a jerk for wasting gas. I agree...but what fun to just push that go button from a stop.

I took the friend of a friend who was visiting from Lane End, England for a ride a few weeks ago. It was after midnight and we had to watch for possums and coons, but the crossfire made a good showing for itself. He loved it and talked his wife into just sitting in the car. That took some doing as she was in her pajamas and slippers. He closed the car door and told me to show her what it could do. "See you later, duck" he said to her protests. As we live in the suburbs I couldn't really let loose, so I did the zero to 80 and back to 35 manouver. It's quite impressive in the SRT and doesn't give the cops much time to respond. She responded, though. I had to do it several more times, by request. That SRT can sure make the ladies squeal! I'm sure the pub back home will hear all about it.

I have a Limited Roadster - and find that I can get 120mph fast enough. My wife stills tells me how impractical the car is - Golf Clubs up front; only weekend luggage; crappy cupholder; tires too expensive; too hard to get in and out of; no spare tire etc.


Do I care - NOPE
I tell her that after 30 years - we could have bigger issues to deal with!

Wink Re: took my friend for a drive

This is actually Rose. I support all those women who chastise their husbands for driving to fast. My husband likes to tear off around corners and it kicks on the traction control light. It makes me scream every time. Of course he pays for it every time, I have a instant reaction to straight slap him across the chest. It was really great to hear about the last time he drove my car to work. A Kansas Highway Patrol Officer rolled up to the house talking about he raced my husband in MY CAR and my car left his police package Dodge Charger in the dust. The cop knew what he was doing my husband hasn't driven my car without me in since. I might seem like an old lady driving but I love my baby girl. I use to be a mustang fanatic but, once I saw my car I KNEW she was the one for me. She is even a lesbian, she burns EVERY man that get near her with her pipes. I call it her Cl*t. Her "blood grooves" are so hot some days she deserves a tongue bath. I just have a special relationship with her. I will NEVER get rid of her no matter what the cost. So, maybe your wives just have a special relationship too!

if it was a full police package charger then no way, those things are running 340hp and 390ft/lb torque....however it could have been a police appearance package which has just the standard SE charger v6... just saying... anywho, tell the guys that get close to the car they are idiots for getting burned...haha. there used to be a cute reaction when girls first saw the car....but that seems to have stopped, they all love it and love its power...though they have no idea what power is since its only an N/A, but I don't complain.

I'm going to have to issue a big WTF on this one...

Not sure whether to be amused, disgusted, or horrified. But it's certainly original...
