Default Marital Status

Curious how many of you guys are single or divorced. You are so picky about and constantly wanting to change / alter your Z06 I can't help but wonder! LFAO

Divorced here for over four years. Glad to be single after almost 20 years of married misery. I have five cars and the Z06 stays stock. All my mods go into my 1923 Ford Model T street rod. Looking for a low mile '96 Grand Sport coupe to add to the small collection.

40 and Married Here. Wife actually was one that suggested I look into getting the Z06 since I had always wanted a Vette and was thinking of trading in the 2002 Ram Air T/A back this past June. Its not really anything she is into but does like the Z, is afraid to drive it and generally doesnt give opinions one way or other in terms of any mods just as long as I am happy.

BTW - Should have added this is my second marriage and going on 3 happy years now.

Today is my 30th wedding anniversary. I tried to take the Borla Stingers off my car and put the stock Ti system back on. The wife said "Don't you dare!" She loves the way the car sounds. BTW, I have LGM headers without cats.

Gota love a women like that!

Married. I blame this whole Z06 thing on her: Went to just LOOK at a C6, she hated it and fell in love with a Z06 and told me to buy one, and who am I to say no to something like that?

By any chance ... She wasn't your school teacher when you were 15 right (Just Kidding of course). Congrats on a successful and long happy marriage !

married with a newborn...

wife says she'll leave me if I sell the vette...and loves the many mods done to the car.

She also loves being in the car at Watkins Glen doing 120mph through the esses , but then she is from Italy and over there Auto racing is only 2nd to football.

Married 7 years. Gave her the IROC when I bought my '66 Chevelle to keep her happy. Bought the Z06 for myself after 10 months in Iraq. No mods YET.
