My missus was concerned about the xr6 with 330, but she got used to it pretty quickly.

The funniest part was when we parted with it we test drove a Non-T Territory Ghia, and I was amazed by how much power the old car had that I DIDN'T use. Anyhow I was ready to buy a Standard Territory Ghia, as I realy wasn'r concerned buy the lack of power as I only used it occasionally... Then the boss hopped in... as she rounded a corner to merge onto the highway just out of town she pushed the go-pedal and as we neared 100kph she said "nope, this things sh*t, we'll have to get a Turbo Ghia, it's got not power". So we have TTG, lol.

I'm away for a month plus at a time so I don't have much say in how much it gets used but my mrs thinks it's her new shopping car/weekend hoon car. Bedore she ever got to drive it I put the big street tune in and absolutly put the foot through the floor and of coarse she screamed to which I said it's not a toy (at least not for her lol) and this is what happens when your not careful, was the best thing I ever did she treats it with the respect it deserves/needs and I don't have any dramas any more with her driving plus I said if you break anything I'll spend twice as much as I need to fix it lol.

When it does go out she recons she gets funny looks especially from young fellas and just laughs when they try and line her up a the lights.

I came back one time and she was bragging about how some kid in wrx raced past her com in out of a roundabout and she gave it a little squirt past him. I told her if she gets done for honing and losses her license it will be hilarious. And qik1 my other half must be different to most cause I gave it a rather large bootful with her in it one day and all she said was " is that all I thought it would go faster than that". She wants to do burnouts in it and drive it at the strip now.

Mine gets to drive mine during snow season when I need her subbie to get up the mount. We are a young couple and being NZ not many young people have vehicles like that, she gets the funniest looks driving it. She's 22, drives it with respect thou as I have shown her what will happen when mistreated.

Since the fluff mobile is sold for now and can't decide what to get next jetson lets me drive, even down the 1/4. Nothing like hitting full boost ina 420kw car and having it grip on slicks. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

My missus use to drive the ute all the time with the first upgrade

But now it has the big arse sports clutch she hates driving the thing

N have a bub the ute never get to go far the's days should have got the sedan

My missus drives my car a fair bit, mostly with me in the passenger seat or passed out legless in the back.

She's only driven it once or twice without me.

After I got it tuned and built she was a bit scared to give it a bit but after a few goes off the lights with a few ricers she's used to it now.

Hopefully she won't be driving it too much now, she'll be stepping into a brand spanking new XR5 Turbo so she will have her own bit of boosted fun

Mine took to the big twin plate pretty quickly. She drives it better thru traffic than what some blokes would. Since the car show it is " her ute " now so il have to get something else to play with.
