458 My girlfriend first time in the car

Funny not funny lol.
Lesson: carry a vomit bag in your car.
I had my kid in the passenger when going on a mountain run and poor boy didn’t last the first few turns and vomited right into the bag.
Turned around and went home.

Oh No I hope this doesn’t make her not want to ride in the car. My wife loved driving in the my 458 spider, I think she will be disappointed the F8 is a coupe.

 

LOL. Listen to Edward, get a barf bag. No one wants partially digested Cheerios all over their F-car.
Maybe you owe the missus a nice date night cruise in the 458?
Enjoy your new car...T

 

Oh no. Golden rule.

if ur gotta barf, roll down the window. If that ain’t gonna work, barf in your shirt!
That way you can roll it up and take it off! (And carry an extra shirt just in case!)

NEVER Ralf in the car! Ever.

I took my wife out at COTA before. It was both fun to expose her to that, and a little scary that she'd be mad at me for a month.

Mine begged for more, so we kept driving. An hour led to a day which led to a week up Highway 1 thru Big Sur. She’s my biggest supporter of getting high end cars!

 

Big Sur is a gorgeous drive! I had the unfortunate pleasure to drive on it in a minivan. I had my wife, kids and inlaws... But it is on my bucket list... Maybe one day with some of the members of this group, I can make it a reality.

My wife doesn't enjoy that. My daughter is the one that loves cars. My GT2 gets treated like "the other woman" in my life, and as to be expected, my wife isn't very fond of it. When I get the F8, I can only imagine the thoughts... It is like having a harem in my house.

 

My son was 5 yrs old. Riding in a car seat in the front of my 996 TT. He had chocolate milk for breakfast. Blew chunks all over the front. Didn't even cover his mouth. It took major self control not to yell at him while cleaning it up on the side of hwy 101

My son was about 8 or 9 and I was driving up to Lake Arrowhead in my GT2 (mountains and curves) for about a solid 45 mins to an hour. Held up until we got there. Didn't even say a word about being sick... As soon as he got out of the car, puked... Lucky me!

 

Next time she is expecting you to floor the pedal. But you won't do that. You let her drive and she can floor it! Now the score is even

 

Do the right thing and let her drive it!

 

I’ve been behind mini vans and Mobile homes from Laguna Seca back home to Hollywood. That single lane section can be the most fun you can have with your clothes on or the worst day of the year behind those mobile homes

I always have a couple of these bags on the passenger’s door of my Speciale, specially on track. Very useful though.

 

stupid! but I like it. this is a good one!

I got a better one!!

It's like going to the back door. You can never just jam it in. Take it slow, really slow, and don't forget the most important thing in life is lube. And then you will be rewarded.

Back to the girl, now you have to do damage control, boy. You scared her! You must make her fall in love with the 458, not talking about the back door here!

 

That was unexpected.

 

I am sorry if you happened to be behind me that day! However, I see a sports car behind me and I am in the slow car ahead, I will let them pass by when safe to do so... So, I doubt I was the one in front of you.

I agree about the best and worst experience when driving. I frequently drive up to Lake Arrowhead and through LA Crest and it can be the best thing in the world or the worst. Especially when the person in front of you is purposefully not allowing you to pass or driving slow.

 

May need it for your next trip, when she makes you pay for it. I am one that I don't do well in the passenger's seat, much worse in rear ones. I will from now one have hospital barf bags in all my cars. Thanks for the advice. The best way to learn is from other's previous mistakes or unfortunate events.

 

If she was like that in a 458, in a more modern Ferrari like an F8 or 720s she would leave you!
