Default My wife can drive my car anytime she wants...

She doesn't take advantage of my offer very often because my car is too stiff, its too loud, the clutch is too hard, 6th gear is too hard to find, and the throttle makes it accelerate too fast. Other than that she'd drive it a lot more. Her A6 4.2 does have Bilstein HDs, H-Sport sway bars, Axis pads, Nav Plus, and 2 sets of wheels.

Hap, talkin dahkine in Evahboost

Default "6th gear is too hard to find" Watch out, some here may think you're bragging about your tranny...

Default My wife drives the S6 but

she really doesn't like to. The clutch is waaayy too stiff for her, as is the brake pedal. Too get enough downwards pressure on the clutch she has to sit forward hunched over the wheel.
She loves our Allroad 6speed whereas I find all it's controls a little too light, especially the brake pedal.

Default Never Again!!!

Last time I let a GF drive one of my cars was about 15 years ago. When she got back I went outside to see half the front spoiler was missing from my Alfa GTV6. She didn't have a clue anything was wrong. I asked what happened and she said "Oh that must have been when I hit the curb doing a u-turn." Ugh!

Nope never again
