Not so bad, really, she let me drive it once in a while! The good news is, she isn't all that thrilled with the 550! DL
I'm 5'2" around 110lb and have no problems handling my 308 - never driven a 512 (but would love to give it a go!). Actually bigger people have problems getting in and out of the 308 - my boyfriend is over 6' and he looks like a disabled spider monkey getting in or out of the car, but interestingly is quite comfortable once he does get settled. Personally I much prefer the older cars and I also kind of think it gives a female driver a llittle more road cred - a girl driving a late model Ferrari is always going to be looked at askance by strangers assuming the wrong thing. P.S. The reason I chose a 308 - a 20yr dream; the only car I've ever wanted and I'm quite content with it! I love being around everyone else's bigger/newer cars but I'm happy with my dreamcar.
Just tossed the idea of women driving Ferraris to my wife and she didn't believe that it would be suitable so I showed her the pics that you guys posted and she was quite amazed plus told her that there are a couple ladies here with similar built to her are driving 308 and 328. So she said she will try it out with me this weekend. I think that 512TR is coming along after all!!!
Soooo? How did it go? I'm keen to see more lady F drivers! Maybe a good plan would be to GIVE her the 328 and then you'd need to get something like a 512... P.S. was going to add a photo but can't get it to load
Those are both excellent cars because they are both pretty easy to drive everyday for both a male or a female. If you can afford it, those are both great choices. Now a 456, is a great daily also but it is even better since it has a full automatic transmission option. That would make it almost perfect, just a little maintence and you are fine.
