Wife calls the 90 hers and drives it quite a bit...she loves the 6 spd. I dont think she would even ask to drive the 40th, but one day perhaps.

My wife is more than welcome to but she's afraid of it. Moreover she's afraid of my reaction should something happen to it!

She has never even sat in the drivers seat. She calls it "My Girlfriend". Heck, after being married for 16 years I had to get something for some excitement!

My wife doesn't like driving the vette, she has trouble seeing over the long front end.
