wife just took the 55 to pick-up takeout. guy in 996 Carrera/S with gal riding shotgun (younger and 20's age) were tail-gaiting the 55. guy finally got over to pass and when was about nose/nose, wife said she was upset at his driving antics and just punched it. said the 996 did not respond. but when both got off exit ramp and side/side at light, girl in car looked over and clapped a few times and gave wife thumbs up-guy never looked over she said. she is a mellow driver and when i asked how she felt when she put HER mat down , she said "the power-ohhhhh myyyyy, god." Klub, i think we have a burgeoning //M hunter. good night all.

That's awesome! My wife doesn't even like RIDING in the car with me, says it hurts her neck because her head keeps snapping back all the time! I tell her just to pin her melon back against the headrest and keep her face forward at all times and that should solve the problem! Whenever I punch it out of our neighborhood (every time!), or from a stop light, she says, "Why do you always have to do that?" She'll never understand - she drives a Silverado with a horse trailer (I spun it out - without the trailer - on an entrance ramp on the way to the airport a few months ago, almost putting it in the ditch, and she said, "I TOLD you that you can't take corners in the truck like you do in your car!"). Heh, heh.

You should supercharge her Silverado behind her back.

I had to laugh as I have nearly killed myself numerous times when I get back in my company car Volvo after being in the Porsche. You should see the wife and kids Hanging on as I take an exit just a little too quick!!

Great idea! I wanted to put a louder exhaust on her truck, but she was worried it would scare the horse. She's going out of town in a couple weeks, leaving the truck behind. I'm thinking suprise her with an early B-day present upon her return: headers, race exhaust, and blower! Thanks for the advice!

Those Silverados have much more aftermarket parts than the AMGs. A 400 or500 rwhp Silverado is easy if you're willing to shell out a few grand. Would be funny. lol
