For some reason even though this car is a beast, I've been driving it like a bi***. I'm worried for some reason that flooring it will hurt the car/transmission in the long run. I guess maybe because my old CL had bad tranny issues, and I learned to drive it like an old lady...to reduce any potential problems. Are the trannys/engines in these cars durable to alot of hard acceleration?

Also kinda weird...but whats the best way to get on it? Just floor it right from a light? or floor it from a rolling start?

For example lets say I want to open her roast beef curtains up tomorrow while merging on the high way...should I just put the peddle all the way down to the floor, and just get off the gas when i hit 70-80? Or semi hold it down etc?

 

The cars are built to be beat (to an extent).

RWD, step on it a bit to get the wheels rolling, then floor it.
AWD, just floor it!

 

Grow some peaches and floor the sumbitch. VQ's love to be revved

No right or wrong way to go fast, just know what you're doing and don't go beyond your limits.

Oh yeah, and I floor it about 6 or 9 times a day

 

several times a day

 

Couple times a day; the only downside is that fuel economy takes a hit.

 

So there really isn't much ill-effects on the car to floor it from a light, as long as its properly warmed up right? What does a proper warm up consist of...? Just operating temperature? I'm going to start flooring it alot more! I need to grow some *****. It's funny if I drive a friends car I always floor it, but with mine I get sort of cautious for some reason.

 

Only when I was still learning how to drive manual and the car would stall when the light turn green and some impatient people start to cut lanes. I don't think anybody caught up after I launch

 

She loves to be on her hands and knees, so... at least 3-4 times a week.

 

every single chance i get

 

You shouldve asked, when do you NOT floor it!

 

uh... everytime i drive.... lol

 

i just bought my car got about 2000 miles on it and i tell my self dont do it shes still so new yet i cant help myself these damn cars are beasts!

 

my exhaust sounds too sexy so everytime i am in it flat out if i can.

 

Every chance I get. At least a few times a day. You have to blow out the cob webs!

 

Just remember to put it in DS, then go for it. I tend to floor it multiple times a day to get around idiots that don't know how to get out of the left lane.
