I really liked that body style too. Very powerful, but I hear you on the age of it. Hard to find a luxury car like that, that hasn't been driven. Especially here in Cali. You gotta drive to do everything!

I know what you mean. When I say hate, she HAAAAAAATES it. Calls it the Rumble Roller. LoL. It's all good though, I get to spend lot of "quality" time in it.

To be completely honest, she is a defensive driver and a smart chick. My concern isn't her, but other people.

If someone hits me, I will blow up.. yes, but at least I know I am there. I just cannot stomach the phone call that someone else hit my car and I wasn't there.. Or someone trying to pressure her into not doing a police report because she is a small girl.

Now where the issue would be, is her clipping a curb with my 1 inch drop.

Funny you should say that. I've already had to pay for dent repair 4 times, and 4 tires. Females, low-pro's, and SoCal freeways don't mix well. LoL

Well, she gave it a whirl again today, since I'm gone. Had to take off early because (as she claims) wasn't feeling too good. I think she's just pulling my leg, and she really likes it. I know all the guys at her job are on it!
