So far my wife hashiznit two curbs a fire hydrant and spun out in an intersection during a snow storm. She called me on the last one to see what she should do. Sometimes i hate my life.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I feel pretty confident that in that situation my wife would have 1.) been too scared to put in into gear 2.) if she did get it in gear, it would immediately be crashed in the ditch.  lol. 

Thats awesome that your wife will hop in and get nasty with your T-bird like that!!

I don't trust her, she couldn't get it out of first HAHA and it has a rev limiter so she couldn't be to bad.
