Thanks for the advice Jimmy. I'm not too worried about the driving.....actually, I'm looking forward to it. It sounds a lot like the driving experience in Spain (especially with the scooters), and I came through that one alive and loving it. The first 20 minutes out of Barcelona was pretty nutty. Not understanding what the lane markers meant i drove into wrong lane of a 8 lane toll highway, and because it was an unmanned gate meant only for pass holders, I had to BACK UP out of it, enraging half of Barcelona behind me....if my heart can survive that, I'll be fine in Italy).

Driving is half the fun of Europe imo. There's nothing like driving on the side on a tiny, windy road in a nice sporty car, with the mountains on one side, and an ocean drop on the other.
