    And a pair for the Mondial too. WTF is wrong with you guys, all I know now is I’d never buy a car you non glovers own with the steering wheel spoiled by your grubby oily hands. Yuck

    Lol, very good! :D:D

    I guess when you're over 70 like you are, it's ok to wearing driving gloves and "get away with it"

    When you're under 70, it's a whole different ball game out there, you don't want to lose street cred over it. :oops::oops:

    That’s the problem with you guys, no self confidence and worried what others think. Does your wife choose your clothes?

    Turn it up. I spent years driving an imported F1 car with shields. The trifecta of utter worthlessness according to the “experts”.

    I’ll wear whatever tracksuit pants my wife sees fit, thank you! :p

    And again.

    I pretty much always drive with gloves on a spirited drive.

    The 911 has a thinnish steering wheel and the beautifully soft Greycar leather gloves I wear are a treat to wear.

    Hehe, kidding mate!

    I am the last person on earth who cares what other people think of me.

    You want to wear gloves while driving your cars? No problem.

    You want to wear those gloves to the Blue Oyster bar when you go drinking? No problem.

    :D:D

    Key question is do they make it feel like someone else’s doing it for you?

    Gloves:
    1. Reduce fatigue and improve car control because you need less grip pressure
    2. Save the leather or wood rim from the acid in sweat
    3. Protect your hands in an accident
    4. Make it easier to control your goat during love making

    Yep, my driving gloves work for me especially on spirited drives, I use a lot less pressure gripping the wheel with more accurate control of the slippage if you will (similar to what Ian said:)

    There are no words to describe how ridiculous I would look and feel wearing those in the Emira.
