They are drawn together by their guilt, and by the unacknowledged fact that was implied in the scene at the hotel, that they both have the same cynical attitude toward life. Also, the scene at the hotel and the accident on the highway have destroyed the recent love affairs of both.
Gatsby didn't want Tom to drive his car because he believed it was better for him to drive and reveal his wealth, influence, and control. He hoped that by driving his own luxurious car, he could maintain a sense of power and superiority over others, including Tom.
I dont like how this question is asked... The reader of this question doesn't know who or what daisy is, or who Gatsby is. How do you expect the average person to answer this question.
But luckily for you. I for one, am not an average person. I realize this is a question relating to the novel The Great Gatsby. You should have told us, this question was related to the novel, then everything would make more sense. And say Daisy, with a capital. It's somebody's name, you know that.
Anyway, moving along to the answer:
Tom knows he has won the battle and will never lose Daisy. Therefore, he feels comfortable in sending Daisy and Gatsby off together in Gatsby's yellow car. He has nothing to fear; Daisy will always belong to him
Gatsby is proud of his car because, like Gatsby's house and Gatsby himself, the car is ostentatious. In chapter 4, when Nick describes it, the reader discovers that it is, "a rich cream color, bright with nickel, swollen here and there in its monstrous length with triumphant hat-boxes and supper-boxes and tool-boxes, and terraced with a labyrinth of wind-shields that mirrored a dozen suns. Sitting down behind many layers of glass in a sort of green leather conservatory, ...". To Jay Gatsby, being wealthy meant showing off that wealth. He has the money to fit into Daisy's world, but he doesn't have, nor will he ever have, the class that would put him in Daisy's world. Daisy's and Tom's car is a much more sedate, refined navy blue. To those in the Buchanan's social strata, being wealthy was just a fact of life they'd always known and to be showy was distasteful and crass. It's a sad note throughout the story that Jay never grasped that difference. So, Jay would much prefer driving his own bright, shiny roadster with his bright, shiny Daisy beside him than to drive Tom's dark, sedate sedan.
Gatsby does not want Tom to drive his car because he does not like Tom and is in love with his wife. In the novel cars represent masculinity and Tom is trying to detract from Gatsby masculinity by driving his car.
i think it is because he wants to show he has control of the situation. i probably read that on sparknotes...
She wanted to and Gatsby could never refuse her.
