You will probably not get a test drive off the lot w/out the sale rep with you and I doubt they will let you turn on/off launch control. I am 42, been driving for 26 years, and the sales rep went with me on the test drive, and she is my aunt. Never has she ever gone with me on a test drive in any other vehicle I have test drove in the past.

My advice, just feel how she handles. Check to make sure visibility is good for you. Worry about launch control when you get the car.

Wow,no license yet and the sales person let you drive one on the lot? Eather he is real brave or real stupid. I would hate to be him if something happend and he had to explain that one. I apalogize if I missed it but are you buying or just kicking tires?
Wonder if Scotty minds if I send my thirteen year old daughter down to test drive one of his SSs?
