How to convince the wife/significant other that you NEED a 370z
 
Ok, if I were single, then the decision to buy this beautiful machine would be a heck of alot easier. But I'm not, so I've had to come up with a few reasons that justify buying a 2 door, 2 seater over a... SUV. She's not fully convinced, but I think I'm doing pretty good. Here's what I've got so far:

1. I'll let you sit on the hood, and take pics of you. You can post that on your Facebook and it'll REALLY make your friends jealous.

2. My old car is about to die, so I'll need a new car to go to work. What - YOU wanna get up at 6am and take me to work?? Didnt think so.

3. We don't need 5 seats, our kid can ride up front with me, I'll just tint the windows and drive really slow.

4. It'll give me something to do while your watching soap operas, so I wont bother you.

5. Because its a really small car - the insurance will be alot cheaper, and the cops radar gun won't pick it up (Bullsh!t)

6. We NEED 330+ HP because, other people can't drive and if I don't have the power to merge quickly or change lanes quickly, I'll crash. And die. Then what will you do??

7. I've wanted a Z since I was 2 years old. And I've been working so hard since then (shed a tear) I think its time I rewarded myself. (more bs)


I think I'll need a bit more. What have you guys tried???

nogoodname 12-19-2008 10:53 AM

ok, Here's what I call "NoGood's Golden Rule"


"It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission"




just think about it

That is my motto! And, my wife KNOWS it...

nogoodname 12-19-2008 11:04 AM

^^ damn, if she knows it already.......that sucks



just distract her with a necklace or something

smashingpimp 12-19-2008 11:28 AM

The problem for me is that me and my wife currently both have 2 door coupes. We want something bigger but i want a 370z lol. My plan is to convince her to get rid of her car and get a Cross over type vehicle (vw Tiguan perhaps). That way, we'll have one big car and i can get away with a 2 seater. It's just me and her anyways so why do we need the extra space?

nogoodname 12-19-2008 11:34 AM

^^ for the babies....duh....

YOU shut your dirty whore mouth :gtfo2:

lol.no kids. Hopefully not for a long time

nogoodname 12-19-2008 11:56 AM

^^ just tell her it's the most economical car that has power.....tell her you dont need extra seats or a big trunk, that's just extra space for nothing

smashingpimp 12-19-2008 12:00 PM

That's work except 1) She could care less about cars and doesn't think they need to be fast or look nice.
and 2) I already have a small economical car with lots of power lol.
I'm going to stick to the asking forgivness instead of permission idea i think. I've used it before and it worked then lol

Slidefox 12-19-2008 12:03 PM

^^Hahaha... Put the foot down... until she tells you to pick it up!! My fiance is the same way...

nogoodname 12-19-2008 12:05 PM

true that, stick to the original plan .....when you start altering it...it just goes bad

smashingpimp 12-19-2008 12:07 PM

lol ok. I got some time. My lease still isn't up until next year.
Is there anyway to get out of a lease when your near the end of its term?

nogoodname 12-19-2008 12:08 PM

^^ I would not lease swap it b/c i heard that your name is still on the car...so if the new owner doesnt pay up....they come after you....you are reliable

Maynard 12-19-2008 12:12 PM

Me, "Wow, that 370Z is a pretty sweet car! I want it!"
My wife, "Go for it!"

Done :tup:

LOL! That does not work on my wifey. She is pretty simple. I told her I would get her Lasik; that should do it....

If not, I will tell her I will take the family on some cool trip and that will do it for sure!!

In the end, she knows what's up.

nogoodname 12-19-2008 12:15 PM

best case scenario !!! for Maynard

Keep one or both. You've got a car for the family, plus room for shopping,hauling stuff around!
If you can afford it go get the Z!

zero 12-19-2008 01:16 PM

I bought her 350Z so she is ok if I am getting 370Z.

You could buy her a diamond ring packaged in a Diecast 370Z.

Mythos219 12-19-2008 02:14 PM

Uxoriousness in today's marriages is exactly why I'm not married. Well that and the high divorce rates and female centric divorce laws. The gf has no say in how I spend my money so that's a non issue. Sorry OP and the other married guys, but thanks for the LOLZ. Hope your schemes work out and the wives don't get mad and withhold sex from you guys.

shumby 12-19-2008 03:27 PM

boys boys boys. Keep that pimp hand strong. god gave you a set of balls so you could be the man. Say "look women come here for a minute and stop cleaning the oven. See this car i'm getting it. NOw i need beer get me one" see simple.





















ps: ha if i did that my wife would have me by the nuts and no sex for like a yaer lol

nogoodname 12-19-2008 03:33 PM

^^^ she would soo beat you up for that........


I could just imagine shumby saying "Women, do this............." and that's how far he'll get

shumby 12-19-2008 03:33 PM

yup so true true

nogoodname 12-19-2008 03:36 PM

Just say ur dying cause of a disease and it is ur wishes to have a 370z........













like that will work......eh...........LOL

dad 12-19-2008 03:39 PM

Hell has no fury like a woman scorned

frost 12-19-2008 06:38 PM

Give her two documents.
1. A sales contract for the 370
2. Divorce paperwork

Then tell her you're going to sign one of them, and she can pick which one. :icon17:

Just kidding, I really wouldn't recommend that approach ... but you would be my hero if you did.:tiphat:

shumby 12-19-2008 06:39 PM

man the devorice would cost you more than the Z

frcefed 12-19-2008 07:06 PM

Call Her one day and tell her you just bought it.
Wait for the reaction

If she loses it tell her you were kidding. But at least it opens the door to discussion.

If she says sweet I can't wait to see it, then go buy it.

nogoodname 12-19-2008 08:48 PM

well, if she says no to the Z then she's not marriage worthy
































LOL, jks....

dutty370Z 12-20-2008 09:32 AM

lol... alot of guys here seem like they would trade their wife in for a 370z... i gotta say thats a pretty tempting idea... the car definately cost less to maintain. and in a few years when youre ready for something else, trade it in for a newer younger model. cant do that with a wife...

Is your money, is your credit, its your final and financial decision and it is for both on you and only both of you.
My wife love my, well, our 350z anyway, so I didn't have that problem at all.

his or her spouse, former spouse, cohabitant, former cohabitant, or
the mother or father of his or her child, corporal injury resulting
in a traumatic condition, is guilty of a felony, and upon conviction
thereof shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for
two, three, or four years, or in a county jail for not more than one
year, or by a fine of up to six thousand dollars ($6,000) or by both
that fine and imprisonment.
(b) Holding oneself out to be the husband or wife of the person
with whom one is cohabiting is not necessary to constitute
cohabitation as the term is used in this section.
(c) As used in this section, "traumatic condition" means a
condition of the body, such as a wound or external or internal
injury, whether of a minor or serious nature, caused by a physical
force.
(d) For the purpose of this section, a person shall be considered
the father or mother of another person's child if the alleged male
parent is presumed the natural father under Sections 7611 and 7612 of
the Family Code.
(e) (1) Any person convicted of violating this section for acts
occurring within seven years of a previous conviction under
subdivision (a), or subdivision (d) of Section 243, or Section 243.4,
244, 244.5, or 245, shall be punished by imprisonment in a county
jail for not more than one year, or by imprisonment in the state
prison for two, four, or five years, or by both imprisonment and a
fine of up to ten thousand dollars ($10,000).
(2) Any person convicted of a violation of this section for acts
occurring within seven years of a previous conviction under
subdivision (e) of Section 243 shall be punished by imprisonment in
the state prison for two, three, or four years, or in a county jail
for not more than one year, or by a fine of up to ten thousand
dollars ($10,000), or by both that imprisonment and fine.
(f) If probation is granted to any person convicted under
subdivision (a), the court shall impose probation consistent with the
provisions of Section 1203.097.
(g) If probation is granted, or the execution or imposition of a
sentence is suspended, for any defendant convicted under subdivision
(a) who has been convicted of any prior offense specified in
subdivision (e), the court shall impose one of the following
conditions of probation:
(1) If the defendant has suffered one prior conviction within the
previous seven years for a violation of any offense specified in
subdivision (e), it shall be a condition thereof, in addition to the
provisions contained in Section 1203.097, that he or she be
imprisoned in a county jail for not less than 15 days.
(2) If the defendant has suffered two or more prior convictions
within the previous seven years for a violation of any offense
specified in subdivision (e), it shall be a condition of probation,
in addition to the provisions contained in Section 1203.097, that he
or she be imprisoned in a county jail for not less than 60 days.
(3) The court, upon a showing of good cause, may find that the
mandatory imprisonment required by this subdivision shall not be
imposed and shall state on the record its reasons for finding good
cause.
(h) If probation is granted upon conviction of a violation of
subdivision (a), the conditions of probation may include, consistent
with the terms of probation imposed pursuant to Section 1203.097, in
lieu of a fine, one or both of the following requirements:
(1) That the defendant make payments to a battered women's
shelter, up to a maximum of five thousand dollars ($5,000), pursuant
to Section 1203.097.
(2) That the defendant reimburse the victim for reasonable costs
of counseling and other reasonable expenses that the court finds are
the direct result of the defendant's offense.
For any order to pay a fine, make payments to a battered women's
shelter, or pay restitution as a condition of probation under this
subdivision, the court shall make a determination of the defendant's
ability to pay. In no event shall any order to make payments to a
battered women's shelter be made if it would impair the ability of
the defendant to pay direct restitution to the victim or
court-ordered child support. Where the injury to a married person is
caused in whole or in part by the criminal acts of his or her spouse
in violation of this section, the community property may not be used
to discharge the liability of the offending spouse for restitution to
the injured spouse, required by Section 1203.04, as operative on or
before August 2, 1995, or Section 1202.4, or to a shelter for costs
with regard to the injured spouse and dependents, required by this
section, until all separate property of the offending spouse is
exhausted.
(i) Upon conviction under subdivision (a), the sentencing court
shall also consider issuing an order restraining the defendant from
any contact with the victim, which may be valid for up to 10 years,
as determined by the court. It is the intent of the Legislature that
the length of any restraining order be based upon the seriousness of
the facts before the court, the probability of future violations, and
the safety of the victim and his or her immediate family. This
protective order may be issued by the court whether the defendant is
sentenced to state prison, county jail, or if imposition of sentence
is suspended and the defendant is placed on probation.
