My wife passed 2000 miles on mine yesterday. Yes, she got to drive it, and now she thinks it's hers.

Not to sound misogynistic, but my wife is banned from driving my G.With the way she drives, I simply can't put my G's life in her hands.She also stated during the first night with the car that "I'll never drive this car honey, I wouldn't know what to do".I agreed!

Have you ever wondered how a woman's brain works?? Well, it's finally explained in one easy-to-understand illustration -----

Every one of those little blue balls is a thought about something that needs to be done, a decision or a problem that needs to be solved.

Once I made the mistake of referring to the G as my car. I promptly received a lecture on sharing, something like - she was more than willing to share her washing machine and dryer with me, in fact, she was even going to share her pots and pans, and the dishwasher and... I saw where this was going, blessed the G and asked for Heavenly intervention in preventing dings, scratches and flats on her watch. So far it's working.

This of course, means I have to pontificate a bit. Did you guys know that at it's resting state, most women's brains are working at 60-75% activity level. For guys, the brain at resting state (as in watching football game of NASCAR race) is between 10-20%. There's an evolutionary reason for this, but that would require a long-winded explanation in which folks like Jacko3, SVT Cobra, C-Kwik, Telcoman, and others would take me to task and then we'd all have rambling dissertations. So, we'll leave it at this for now.

As long as my two aren't blue, I'm fine!!!

I'm really glad that my wife hates driving my car. I think the fact that is puts down 2X the power to the REAR wheels doesn't make her comfortable.

Which explains why my wife is always saying, "Are you listening to me?" And I'm always answering "Yes, ummm what'd you say?"

Excellent analogy telcoman... interesting that in the diagram they used blue balls, don't you think?

My coupe just recently passed the 50k mark as well.

In the email I received all the blue balls move. I'm not sure why they do not move when posted here? Perhaps its a photobucket problem?Perhaps one of the geniuses here can figure out why?

The original file was more than likely an animated GIF. GIF animation is finicky, anyone who uses powerpoint and has tried to implement an animated GIF will tell you the woes they've gone through.

However, the picture you posted is a JPEG. JPEGs don't support animation, so that would explain why it's not moving Mentos! The freshmaker!

Depends on how you drive. If you're like telcoman, you probably don't drive fast and hard. If you drive fast and hard that's where you start to run into problems with 87. I think the reason why the sedan can use 87 on a regular basis is because it weighs less than the coupe, therefore it doesn't have as much of a load on the engine. That's just a hypothesis.

Excellent question nismodan69

Since your area is flat and if you are not racing your G then there is no reason for you to spend the extra money for premium. Try regular & see how it runs.I did and I'm satisfied

“There are two very practical and human answers to the creation of man and woman. One is the man’s view; the other is the woman’s view. Are you ready? The woman’s view of creation is this: God made the man and looked at him and said, “I can do better than that,” and He made the woman. Now the man’s view is God made the beasts and man and then He rested. And then He created woman. And neither beast nor man nor God has rested since.”

-Charles Swindoll

Amen.
