Does your wife (spouse) Like riding in your Corvette?

My wife HATES my Vette. She claims it's the ride/ noise/ height but she sure is in to the idea of me buying a Cayman.
I've given up on trying to please her. I drive it for me. And her grown kids like it a lot as well.

She keeps grabbing onto the door handle when I accelerate....
Yep! She will find the Mild To Wild fob and turn it down to almost SILENT when going through the neighborhood on the weekend mornings....

The wife enjoys riding in mines or hers but I refuse to drop the top in hers when I am driving. Last month her and I went on a test ride after I installed a e-force with not a beep out of her. I was the one complaining it was not enough hp vs $$ for the kit.

Mine does & she isn't a car person, nor a good passenger. But she loves the socializing of our vette clubs. GS is Very comfy, btw, & wicked fast!

My wife doesn’t like it. She doesn’t like riding so low and she absolutely does not like taking curves without slowing down. This is what I bought it for. 😁

My wife loves riding in my Corvette but she hates driving it Being ‘height-challenged’, she cant get close enough to feel comfortable fully depressing the pedals while keeping a comfortable distance from the steering wheel. She does enjoy the passenger seat and actually asks if we can go for drives!

Naw, don't think the wife does. I drive too fast, corner too hard & fast, have the music on too loud! When I install headers and axle backs it'll be too loud w/ the NPP open! But she's offended if I don't invite her along. Sometimes I feel I can't win for losing.

women could care less about cars, if they do its one that makes them look like they have money. Vettes dont do it.

Let me think a second.........hmmmm....
A woman in the same car with me complaining about how fast I'm going. How I'm driving. Wanting to stop at every single rest area to pee. Doesn't like the noise. Hates being so close to the ground. Listening to her useless blather about nothing for hours. Complaining about the ride being rough.
Etc., etc., etc.
Annnnnnnnd how can a woman not wanting to ride in my car with me be a bad thing??

Better for our relationship is she doesn't ride in it. Complains about noise (SLP Loudmouths), too low, hard to get in and out of and ride quality. She prefers her Cadillac SEX. Fine with me.
