We all love our wives, I am sure. It's just that some ladies by nature want their spouse to spend every moment with them (often in the mall).:wave:

In my case I'll go with the wife. Through the course of our marriage I've had/have many Corvette's and I was allowed to get them all after minimal amounts of begging. To date, she has let me have every Corvette I've wanted...but she did give me a definite "NO!" when I expressed an interest in a Viper...everyone has their limits I suppose.

It's better than the alternative...having a Corvette and then begging some woman to be my wife.

I married my wife back in 1990 - a full 9 years after I purchased by first Corvette - a 64 365. A few years into our marriage SHE encourages me to trade my 64 Corvette for the 67 435HP Corvette I have started think about. Then last year - SHE encouraged me to purchased my 95 Z to go along with the 67.

Hey, there are plenty of cars out there. I'll keep my wife (who also provided two wonderful kids as well).

I havent consulted one car purchase with my wife (girlfriend) I can buy what I want when I want with my money

:thumbsup:

Damn right!! I see absolutly nothing wrong with that logic. At the same time, she can do what she want's...I'm not her keeper. If she doesn't like it, I can have another set hanging over the sink tommorow. I always say...the door swings 'Both' ways, if your not happy here :wave:.

Damn right. I mean my god! It's not like your asking her to envite her girlfriend over for a threesome or anything. But she has no problem reminding me that her money helped pay for that ZR-1 to. But when any of the cars breaks down guess who fixes them while she sits on her but and watches American Idol. But I do have twice the buying power being married.:mrgreen:

I have a different problem. When I got my Z my wife loved it so much she said "you know those new ZR1s are really nice too, hint, hint". My only response was, you know we are in a bad recession right? :rolleyes:

I'm lucky. MJ bought #364 for my birthday in 1998. She didn't get upset when I started racing it, only asked that I get more life insurance. She bailed me out one time when I had too many to drink at a bar and couldn't drive, she got a ride to the bar and drove #364 in full race trim back to the house. She even semi-hammered it on Central Expressway and then looked down at 150 on the speedo and nearly croaked. I won't be trading her anytime soon.
