Divorced, and money to burn on mods with no one to say, what the !!! Also, have 24 year old son who is looking to get his first Vette, and he is still single with good job, so it's doable.

Married 15 years...She lets me have my toys..She actually was the one that convinced me to buy my '04 Z06. She has almost zero interest in cars, but when I brought home the Z06 to show her, she was convinced I should sell my NSX and buy the Vette..She liked it that much.

Single and Happy. I dont want to have to get permission. I see it in many of my friends who get married. Plus, I enjoy the action and variety of many other women. I dont know how you guys do it...The same ol has to get boring quick. Now if only you could have a family and a tang selection, that would be awesome.

Married 37 years and retired! I've had Vettes since '77 as weekend drivers. Just turned my C4 vert over to my 34 year old son and bought a new Z06 and love it. My wife thinks it's a vert and I told her that we'll take the top down next summer, oh well.........
Between the mods on the Vette and the Harley I don't know how I ever had time to work!

Single at this point.
GF has no problems with me spending money on the car. She could care less what I do with my money and she loves all kinds of car events. Definately a keeper.

Married (just celebrated 8th anniversary, away from each other again ).
Don't get to drive it much because of Iraq and now Korea and in a few months Afghanistan but she takes care of it for me. She's exited about the blower! Hell an STi is what she drives. She's a car nut too.

Married for 17 years now. My wife is not crazy about me buying things for my Z06 but she understands my passion to improve the Z so she puts up with it.

Married ten years.

She hates the hell out of the drone from the Supermaxx longtubes through the Borlas. That's how you can tell it's just right.
