I work with a guy who has a wife that thinks she can control everything he does. I had a Kawasaki ZX14, she wouldn't let him even ride a motorcycle. When we bought the Camaro, he said "Kim would never let me have anything like that".
One day we were talking about guns.. Once again.. his wife will not allow him to own a gun....???
My wife claims the camaro, never minded the motorcycle, and loves guns as much as I do....

:-)

The wife comment sounds like a copout to me, probably just can't swing the payments.

As with everything else, its about WHO you marry. If it isnt your car, its something else. Marriage is all about compromise even with the most easy going woman, like mine is. Some are worse than others, some are nightmares, but regardless, neither the man or the woman can steamroll the other or things arent going to work out and at least one will be miserable.

I was probably the last person my friends thought would be married. Extremely selfish, was never happy with just one woman, and it was always me me me and about my wants and needs. You meet the right one, and you want to change. I couldnt be happier to be married to my wife. I honestly dont know why I waited so long. Yea sometimes I wish I could bang out the sexy young thing at the gym, but thats normal male testosterone, and as long as you dont act on that temptation, you are fine.

My wife and I went to look at the Camaro because my son went to work for a Chevy dealership. As I was talking to Wade when I asked where is Nita, he said she has been sitting in the Camaro for 20min. When we got to the car, she said my only problem is that I cannot see over the hood. My son then showed her how to raise the seat, a few hours later she drove the car home and is still in the car and that was 8 months ago.

Without the cash, the wife isn't going to go for a Camaro SS for that matter.

My neighbor drive a new Porsche Turbo ($150K). His wife doesn't say a thing because he makes the money and he's got plenty of it.
Well we are by no means rich, and we make close to the same income. But I can say two words that would make affording a ZL1 possible for us.. NO KIDS
