I am going to have to disagree with you man. If it was any other car, I wouldn't care either, but this car, no one else drives.

I agree, I just give whoever a ride instead of loaning them the GS.

Some rare cases, other people have driven my car, like my sister for a short trip. My dad took the GS out one time a long time ago, but it's my dad, he don't need to ask. My mom doesn't want to drive the GS because its modded and my sister doesn't want to drive it anymore either because she knows how careful I am with it. I met two girls about 2 months ago and I gave them a ride in the GS. They kept asking me to let them drive the GS but I said no, haven't heard from them since

My mom has driven the car ONCE, and my dad ONCE, and then my g/f, which has driven it twice (once around the block and the other time she just moved it from one parking space to another)

I always let people drive my cars, this one or any previous ones. I guess it's safe to say you don't ever valet park your car

I would never valet, EVER ... I had a friend who worked at a valet service at a hotel on the beach, and let's just say they would take a "joy ride" in all of the really nice, expensive cars before parking them ...

I am not saying that it will never happen, but I doubt it's a common thing. I always check my milage and only use valet key. I am always valet parking, why park my own car when someone can do it for me. Especially in places with hard to find parking (down town).

Default my 2Cs

if u have a stock GS, i guess most people will let anyone drive it.
if u have a aftermarket bumper/suspension, i doubt you will let anyone TOUCH it...
unless u have your eye on a new bumper already....(or you purposely let someone drive cuz u knew someone will mess up your parts, and then u can replaced it on someone else's tab)

am i right? guys?
