I can imagine it takes a couple of days to get used to driving some of those exotic cars
I try to drive two to three hours a day, to appreciate all of them. But, I'm usually not completely comfortable until Wednesday or even later in the week. By Friday is when I figure I've got each of 'em dialed in and can really push them - if they're the kinda car that gets pushed. By Friday, I'm wearing it like a skin, I'm bonded with the car and we are one.
I don't always get the time to drive two or three hours, but I try to make time to do so.
I bought the fucking collection. The least I can do is appreciate it. (And i do. I absolutely appreciate the privilege of owning these cars. I get experiences that people dream about having - pretty much every day.)
I know when I first got the XJS I had it took me at least a week to be comfortable with it. It was so much different than anything else I had ever owned
Yip. Imagine jumping into vastly different cars every week. In many of them, I don't even bother learning how to operate the radio. I set the climate controls while I'm parked at first. Even the window switches are different and many of them are such that I have to slow down if I want to take my attention away from driving.
But, pretty much every day I get to drive someone's 'dream car'.
