i'll let my parents drive it, considering it's their car and their insurance and i'm only 16, so i don't have much say anyway

I don't like anyone driving my car, but me. But i let my dad and my brother drive it before. And my friend once, only because i was drunk and puking out of my car, and i still didn't want him to drive, but somehow he ended up driving

I let anybody drive it that asks (of course not complete strangers though). I figure nobody can drive my car as hard or put it through as much misery or abuse as I can.

ahhh but just remember peoples driving skills!! (I agree with you about u driving ur car hard haha)

I let close friends drive the car or people i trust WITH my car (not many) and i'm always sittin rite next to em!! hehe

My dad I let him drive it... just make sure to warn him about scraping and bending rims... so it ends up he doesnt drive my car... and thats it... would i let my gf drive the car? if she pushed the issue maybe but... she'd have to push it pretty hard I'd just play dodgy.. like ok sure... and then never get around to lettin her drive hehe

Only my wife, I let my bro and my mom move it out of my driveway if they need to. Otherwise it's a no touch deal.

I let the previous owner drive it....Before I bought my Max. I think that was more than enough 'other people'. And considering that I've never met him/her before means that I'll never have to let them drive it again...

Only people that drive my max are me and my girlfriend...well and my dad, but thats only when i leave for basic in the fall. My girl can drive it really well so sometimes i let her take it by herself and dont worry about it.

Heh...when I first bought mine, I took it over to my parents and let my mom drive it around the block, so she could see how lackluster her auto 94 accord EX was

That's it. I would probably let a few of my good friends that are veteran manual drivers take it around for a bit. My rule is no girls behind the wheel, after I've ridden with a few that drive a stick. Not unless they can prove themselves to me by busting some professional stunt-driver style moves in a torquey rwd manual or something!

Pretty much anyone I know well enough >>

Unless I have witnessed their inability to control a vehicle under normal circumstances, I don't see why not. After all, it is only a Maxima...not a 800bhp touring car.

Myself and ebmorgan, because he shares the love for the product. (He has an I30 and posts on this board)

Fortunately, my girl doesn't have a driver's license and my parents live 1600 miles away.

NO ONE!!!

I pay for my car -- every month -- and no one is helping me, so, NO ONE DRIVES MY CAR...which is funny, because, I've driven ALL of my friends cars, but, no one can touch my car!

After I got my "B" pipe and rear free flow muffler Maxie barks really loud. With the hi Flow K&N intake she talks even louder. My wife and other family members pass on any offer I make to "Awwww go ahead, take the max.." I especially worry about curbing my Momo's. You know what I mean.

I'm currently the driver of my '98 SE, but I'm cautious (or I make exceptions) on the following who I let drive it...

- My mom (she'll put bad gas, happened when I gave her my Altima & my SE.. I strictly use Amoco 93 in my SE)
- My oldest sister (she'll rag on it like she did when she had her '97 SE)
- My brother (After all, it was his car, I should let him drive it when he wants even though he now has an '02 Passat, one time he drove my Altima and caused the SES light to come on)
- My other sister (Supposedly she said the radio and clock didn't work when her and my mom drove my SE, but since then I've had no problems so I'm cautious on giving my SE to her)
- My G/F (If I do have a g/f, of course I'll let her drive it, as long as she's gentle w/ it)
- My friends (same scenario as my oldest sister)

My gf has driven my car once, as have my cousin and a good friend. Since I'm 18, my parents drive it, if they need it-very rarely.

Actually 2 freinds of mine have or had Max's, one had a '96 GXE, his brother totalled it so he's had a 300M for over 3 yrs but wants another Max, another friend of mine has a '98 GLE, he likes it a lot over his Diamante he used to have
