Seems to be the opposite with the girls I date. They always beg to get a ride. I make 'em sweat for a bit.

Haha, great pic! My wife grips the handles for dear life in our Cayenne S, she closes her eyes and mumbles things (prayers to God?) in the TT.

My wife loves the acceleration. But one lap on a road course found her limits so to speak driving into a turn. I dont think many quite understand what it feels like to see a sharp turn coming up at fairly ridiculous speed, and the amazing deceleration until you've experienced it. As a driver, it's awesome. As a new passenger, it is a scary thrill. Amazing what these cars can do.

Wife tells me to pull over so she can get out if I get a bit frisky so I have to maintain when she's riding shotgun. Then she'll tell me how she blew off some diesel that wanted to race her in her Boxster, lol!

OK, I'm going to say it out loud, and will probably be banned from here forever. But please believe me - it's meant as a true compliment

Holy crap, some of you have stunning wives! Huge congrats on that (or your cool deceptive model in front of my car thing!)

I guess wives have a sense of great husbands.

Oh, my wife is 6 feet tall and blonde (really!). Sorry guys, no pictures.

I had my 69 year old mother up to 165 mph and all she did was look at me and say... "why are you going so fast" After that I tried a 125mph off ramp on a hiway and she just rolled here eyes.

yup my mom rocks!

LOL, I did about 140 with my Mom on the back of my bike, she loved it. I would have gone faster but, that was just the on ramp and ran out of room once I got to the bottom...
