Ummm, not true. All the women I had in my life before my wife, all reacted crazy when I drove a bit crazy in my car. But my wife, she just sits there like nothing, even though I push it hard sometimes (twisties/in & out of traffic/driving fast) to see a her reaction change, but nothing... She says she can handle it and she does ;-)

E90Brad · 09-25-2012, 08:18 AM

The wife nags the whole time...

NOJODA · 09-25-2012, 08:22 AM

lol !!! this video made my day.

countless smiles on my face throughout the video.

Vintage · 09-25-2012, 08:31 AM

What a pleasure to scarry your passendger? There is something sadistic (
I would gladly whatch the video if Augusto takes right passender's place, giving the driver's place to his wife.

You should watch the rest then, as you will see that she smiles a little and talks back and forth with her husband. Even jokes a bit.

Anyway, the video has been posted and I'm sure BMW got the Farfus's consent to post it.

haha this is awesome!

StevenY. · 09-25-2012, 10:04 AM

Awesome video, that was hilarious!

P1 · 09-25-2012, 10:08 AM

I felt it was a little fake on the lady's part. Still a cute video.

UsualSuspect · 09-25-2012, 10:35 AM

I bet he got plenty.

Great vid, I doubt she would do it again but at least she has a better understanding of what his job is like. She obviously didn't have a clue!

Anderw · 09-25-2012, 10:57 AM

She handled that pretty well , I cant even drive slow with out getting yelled at for doing something wrong , +1 on the ms. swan

jmgM3 · 09-25-2012, 11:01 AM

lol... I had fun watching the video.

ATSR · 09-25-2012, 11:02 AM

Did she inhale helium before the ride??

PutterMcGavin · 09-25-2012, 11:03 AM

Haha great video!

Reminds me of a quick run I had with the new girlfriend. Normally drive VERY sedately with ANY women in the car but she made a joke about me driving slow all the time. Next time I pulled into my neighborhood I said "so you really want to know what this is capable of?" She said "sure." Went to an empty undeveloped area with MULTIPLE progressive S turns (9 over 1500 ft?). Nailed it riding over the "curbs", kicking the tail out slightly, etc. then stopped at the end after drifting 180 in a cul de sac. She just looked at me, put her bottom lip over her top when we were done, then took a deep breath and said "Hmmmmm, ok. You win. Never doing that again." We drive her 4Runner everywhere now

Amleto63 · 09-25-2012, 11:18 AM

The good thing I cannot hear my wife's screams when riding my duc with her in the back!

NoM3ForMe · 09-25-2012, 11:38 AM

That was HIGH-larious.

Although, she sounds like she came straight out of a Japanese Anime...

Detroit M3 · 09-25-2012, 11:44 AM

Dont go over the curbs! hahah shes going to get this guy into an accident next time..
Ps. It is a racecar.
