Daily driver now so, while it's not as bad-a$$, It gets driven probably 50x more often. It did cost me an Acura RDX and a garage spot before the bitching stopped. One freaking expensive Z.
When I met my wife she was driving a POS Ford Contour that was falling apart and never had the luxury of garage parking. Silly me offered up a spot when she moved in. Fast forward to today, we're married and she must have a garage spot, all the driving aids/nannies that I hate and cooled seats in her car. My fault though, I created an animal.

On the flip side though, she leaves me alone when it comes to my car hobby

Similar problem for me! When we were first married, I let my wife DD my 350z and she really enjoyed most aspects of it. The end result was that she wanted something close to the power and handling of the 350z, but with more modern amenities and AWD, all easy enough to do... except she's also extremely frugal! So we spent a couple months looking before she settled on a 2013 g37x.

She's pretty great though, really good about me modding my car, and was ridiculously excited when I bought her a motordyne exhaust for her birthday (she also helped install it).
