Will be letting my golf Pro's son drive mine when he is home on Christmas break from Annapolis. I think a future Naval Officer will be OK even though I am retired Air Force. Maybe one in his future some day. I had two during my USAF years.

If you can not rent one, have your parents or older sibling/friend rent it for you. If they are not willing to do it, then you should ask yourself why not?

There are crazy people in this country as evidenced by the latest news. I would not trust ANY stranger to drive a vehicle that if they were to wreck it, could just walk away and say thank you.

Maybe you should be asking if someone would be willing to take you for a ride.

I and most people don't pay too much attention to internet grammar, BUT your post is written in a way that will make some take notice of the poor writing skills.

I would let someone drive mine that I know, trust, and most importantly know that my insurance would cover.

My sister in law keeps asking me if she can drive the Vette when my wife doesn't want to. I wish she would stop asking. You were saying?

Meaning you better have a hot wife to offer up in exchange.

I'm in the North/NorthWest Houston area (towards Tomball) and should be available anytime Dec. 29th afterwards. I have a 2007 A6 Z51 (2LT) with 105k miles on it if you'd like to drive it.

The OP wasn't looking to buy one, just take one for a spin for his twenty - first birthday.

Walmart has a couple of 2014s left in stock. No paddle shifts. Sales Associate will take it off the rack and If it's charged let you take it for a spin. No license necessary.

I let an off duty point uniform take a spin on my brand new Honda RC51 1000cc twin sportbile back in 2002. They group of us were just getting ready to leave the restaurant when he started talking to me about in, telling me he had an Honda 954. He then asked to ride it. I looked at him and kind of smirked, he said he was serious. I said ok, it's a cop in uniform, no helmet in a parking lot... What's the worst that could happen?!


It ended up in a drainage ditch totaled. And it went on my insurance because I gave him permission to ride it.
