The Corvette and the other woman.
How does your wife or GF feel about you having a Corvette? Does she support you, is she an enthusiast herself, or does she dislike the car because she feels that it is in competition with her? I know my ex wife and ex GF both were not crazy about my Corvette ownership. Both were not deprived of anything with my ownership of a Corvette but they acted like they were.

My wife liked my vettes so much that she wanted to trade her cts-v for one for herself. She now has a 06 coupe... I get no complaints when I drive either one spirited......... All i get is a devilish smile...

At first, there was jealousy.
Then, my GF started to enjoy car shows and my passion along with me.
Now, she supports my considerations to trade in my "Baby Vette" for a C6Z and furthering that passion, together.
