My gf has become very forceful about it. She's much shorter than i am, and has become very tired of climbing in and out of my Cherokee. One time she was climbing out and very frustratedly and insistantly said "You're GETTING a camaro."

My wife is all for it, even after I went a bit overboard on ordering the extras.

Actually, I can't tell if she's happy I'm getting a Camaro or if she's happy I'm getting rid of my hobby car (which she says sounds like a very large, obnoxious bug trapped in a paper towel roll when I rev it up). Supportive, my wife is.

I was going to get a econo box but my wife told me "Remember the Nova you bought in 89? You will never be happy with anything but that Camaro."

If the significant other isn't happy with it...there's no better vehicle to be riding in when looking to replace her

(My wife isn't crazy about the looks (she's a lexus/infiniti kinda girl)...but she doesn't mind it)

My wife has seen the light. At first, when I was trying to sell my Grand Prix GXP to make room for the Camaro this summer, she was not happy, but it didn't matter because she knew I'd do what I want anyway

As of the last few weeks, she's been much more exicted for me and about it since I decided to keep the Grand Prix (can't sell it for what I owe) and hold off on the Camaro until both of our cars are paid off (Summer 2011/12). She likes even more after having seen it at the auto show a couple of weeks ago... so now she is more supportive, I just don't know if I can wait that long... especially since you guys will be getting yours MUCH sooner.
