Nobody has driven my GS, I'm thinking I might have one of my buddies take it around the block so I can see what it looks like rolling; but he's about the only one I'd trust not to bend or curb a wheel!

Its only been an hour and I'm worry sick.

If mom can afford a s600 then she can afford a rental too!

besides, the cost of the rental would be equivalent to the amount of gas money that v12 sucks out her tank.

so really it wouldnt even cost her anything... lol

Just think about it this way, she screws up your rims, and she can afford a s600, make her buy you new ones

Do you like how I spun that one around?
Smooth... very smooth!

My mom would never ask to drive my car.....she hates lowered cars. She doesn't even like riding with me.

I lent my mom my car for about a month. It was lowered with 19" work Equips. Well in 2 hours of me lending it to her, she curbed the front passenger wheel. I was kinda sick about it but thought it coulda been worse she's not in an accident. Then she told me the stereo's too loud. (had full sounds) and then she said that "kids" stop and keep staring at her and she actually floored it because she was nervous. I asked her what the other car did and she said she didn't know, at first she said the other car sounded like it was real loud, then the sound got softer.

Of course this is before I put in the boost.
