A.) I dont have that problem, I actually have guys that are getting tired of me talking about it, showing pictures and discussing things with them about it.
Jealousy comes in many forms

but yes, I DO know what you mean!

Yeah, bullshit. Women can be more about motors, cars and "man things" then some men, so watch it buddy

She says whatever makes me happy makes her happy. Too bad there wont be a camaro in my driveway for a while, so she doesn't have to worry.

Danielle put someone in their place, that is for sure.

My wife says i'm a sick person... but she knew that when she married me... other than that... she is happy... house divided.. she has a GT Mustang (07) ... some how she thinks she will beat my Camaro... of course now we know who is sick. ( won't happen) other than that she wants me happy & hopes when I get it ( they say Monday... Gro.Effect are here today ) I will not be on this web site as much... wrong again... i'll be on loading pictures & video.... lol

erasedgod · 04-29-2009, 03:19 PM

My wife loves the car. In fact, I was just lurking this site, not even thinking about being able to afford a new Camaro. Then the wife put it into my head that we could afford it and that I should get it.

She rolls her eyes when I start talking about it like it's my son or something. She laughs at me because I get offended when people talk bad about it.

Please do post the video of her being beaten badly in her mustang. I sure would love to see that!

Wife actually gets upset when I mention the word "Camaro" anywhere around her. She also rolls her eyes and ignores me for the rest of the day. I don't have a problem with it though. Once in a while she gets excited about the whole deal. She starts telling her family that I am getting one and they yap and yap about it but its all good. Lately she's been dealing with it which is great. also the kids love it. I have 2 girls and they are already deciding whos going to to take ownership when I go bye bye..Oh well...Its not that that im going to die soon but its all fun and jokes...

Speed 1 · 04-29-2009, 03:47 PM

Wife is ok with it!!

She'll get more miles out of the Camaro than I will. LOL

This picture was taken right after we left the dealer!!

DanielleAnne! You get over here right now for a good spanking you bad, bad girl...

The Dark Knight · 04-29-2009, 04:12 PM

Since the test drive, the wife is more excited about it than me lol. I've been talking about this car since the time we were just friends lol (circa 2003).

The other day, she woke up and told me show couldn't sleep cause she was thinking about it...I was like...try having sleepless nights since 2003!!!!

The salesman even told me I was a lucky guy for having her as my wife

My wife is ok with it... she is getting a bit overwhelmed with all the info I've thrown at her. And she does get into engines and other man things like cars... She owned an Nova SS before I could even drive, legally at least, and she had a blast driving my TransAm and Camaro SS when we had it... and I'm sad to admit it but she was better at shifting the manuals than I was. I think I'll keep her.
