How many drive with gloves?
One thing that I had thought about doing for awhile was getting pair of driving gloves. Just to prolong the life of the steering wheel, in addition to regular leather treatment, and I think it could be kind of snazzy
A good friend of mine has an uncle with a 300ZX, the body style before the 350 Z, and he always drove it with a glove. It was not his daily driver, and he never drove it in the rain, which is what I plan on doing once I get my car back from the shop. There is a nice new car cover in the garage waiting for her when she gets back
But I was curious if there were many out there that have a pair they keep in the car when they go driving? Or if this was a thing of the past?

If I had a car that would merit wearing drving gloves, I would go for it.
one sweet car your uncle has

I put one of those better quality steering wheel covers on mine from day one to keep the leather from wearing out. Makes the wheel thicker and those little rubber nibs on it provide a nice massage to the old hands. hehe

Ouch.
Its funny when I think driving gloves or whatever. At the track..sure.
but on the street for some reason... a skid blaring "I Wanna Rock" driving a white IROC looking over and headbanging his "kentucky waterfall" yelling "WHOOOOOOOOO" while revving his engine.
Why..I don't know
