Have driven my FR-S in the rain and snow here in Colorado, commuted to work and gone on joy rides in the mountains, have done several track days and a few autocrosses... and have not crashed.
But my wife finds the car terrifying because the one and only time she drove it, she said it tried to crash her while she was merging into traffic from an on-ramp. She's convinced it's unstable and dangerous.
So, for my own safety, she bought me a motorcycle for Christmas. Seriously. A little Honda CB300F. It has 30hp. And while it is a great beginner's bike, and is therefore wholly appropriate for a relatively inexperienced rider such as myself, I had to break her heart with the news that it isn't likely to replace my fondness for 'dangerous' and 'unstable' RWD sports cars.
It snowed on Christmas morning at my house, and expecting traffic to be light, I thought I'd go out for a spin. My wife thought I might actually take my new bike. I went out and hooned the FR-S instead.
And did not crash.
