Well I'm the new owner of JEDsContour's "Daily Driver" - turned my "Pride & Joy"... And the wife drove it for the first time last night. When quizzed about her impressions??? "It's like a Race-Car" is all she could come up with. Pretty good endorsement, I'd say!

You really need to watch what you say about another man's wife, even if you're gonna say j/k. Not cool.

Milford is where New York, New Jersey and PA meet. Right off of Interstate 84.
The only worry that I have about the wife liking the car so much is the newly passed Federal Legislation:
Bill 87.25.259 - The wife gets the good car.

I got a similar reaction the first time the wife pulled the Mazdaspeed onto an entrance ramp, she said "Holy s***t, this thing is a f**kin rocketship!" The cursing is fairly standard, my wife has a mouth like a truck driver.

So I let my dad drive my car and his response (getting on it to only 4-5k) is "I must be getting old, this car is scary!" Best quote ever.
