I just can't picture a woman telling me if I can have a car or not. I am not trying to sound stupid or anything, I just don't get it. I would never let her dictate what I drive.

My fiance actually pushed me to LOOK at the Z. I had a G35, and the Nissan dealership was across the street. She said hey lets go see if they have the new Z. Done I saw it one month later it was mine.

Boy have you got a lot to learn.... 33 and about to be married? Things will change when the ring goes through the nose, I mean on the finger..........

Early training is the key... My wife has known me for 56 of my 57 cars over the years...

Unfortunately it may be a little late to re-train yours .....

+1 on that one!

Whew! I am sure glad that my wife loves the Z car as much as I do. We had a 94 NA 300zx a few years ago, she loved driving it. The other day she said hey, lets go trade in my 08 Camry and get us an 09 370z, boy my checks have hurt from smiling so much for the last two weeks while having this thing.

I agree, get it, and she will forgive you. She will fall in love with it, its hard not to with these cars.

oh and forgiveness is always better than permission...sounds like you been married for a hot minute...so worst thing is youll be in the dog house for a bit..course that aint always a bad thing either depending on how you look at it...for me it would be a verbal vacation

nogoodname · 09-14-2009, 12:16 PM

in the dog house, but with a Z... so it cancels out???

Mine learned early on that it's easier for her to say yes, and save herself a lot of time and energy by doing so.

Sounds like wifey is just being the realistic one here. Looks like you're going to end up with a pretty bad deal regardless because you're upside down on the other car. And it seems like you're negotiating the deal based on monthly payments instead of total cost which is a big no-no.
