*sigh* typical wife response.. ugh! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Mr. iNCREDIBLE · 01-14-2013, 04:10 PM

showed my wife the C7 thread last night, told her to come take a look at the new 'Vette.

Let me premise this by saying she knows what a 'Vette nut I am, I have dozens of books on them from the 1953 C1 until current models...

I have dozens of die casts of them..

My favorite is the 1962, and I vow to have one some day... My father had one, sold it when I was a kid to buy a family friendly sedan..

--

So I show her the pictures and tell her I might just have to trade the Camaro in for one in 2016, and her response..

"Why bother to look at something you are never going to have"

how's that for pulling all the wind out of your sails.

lmao, now go buy one when she's at work

Ha Ha, mine says she wants hers in green!
we both love the looks of the new C7, so I would say that is a nice start.
However we gotta wait till the little one is moved out before we get one

But perhaps in the diabolical mind set of a woman, she really means she wants you to buy one for her instead.

Or maybe, just maybe she is going to buy you one. Thats the plan my wife had when she bought me my Camaro for our annaversary almost 3 yrs ago.
