Being single I can't say I have the problem of a jealous SO. My buddy calls his M5 his "mistress", which irritates his wife to no end. The somewhat sexy voice from the car's stereo system doesn't help him any.

Yes, I am afraid there is something wrong with you! You were standing there looking, should of been driving. Or at least playing with the electronics (6 months with mine and still working on all the electronic systems/features).

No nothing wrong with you. She is jealous the "other woman" sits there quietly awaiting your commands, starts when you say, and doesn't talk back.

The second sentence would be hard for me to say though.
Depending on the wife, I might me able to love the wife more. Nah, who am I kidding?

My fiancé likes her almost as much as me.So I have to help track of the keyfob.
I know I might be doing something and need to go out to the garage for something.I go and
open the side door and there she is.I wake up to reality then.I say to myself is she really
mine?

No need to put your divorce attorney on speed dial....
This happens to ALL C7 owners....my wife accepts that I "commune" with mine in the (mancave) garage all the time!

No, you are normal. I let my wife pick out the colors for my new one, just to keep a little peace in the family. It is always a love affair with the Corvette. And as posted before, I love her more than golf. But never on Wednesday, my weekly golf day.

You guys have to think ahead a little.
When I bought my last Corvette we decided to put it in my wife's name since her credit rating is 850 plus vs my 748 so we got a better loan rate. So, when she comes out & I'm sitting in the garage with a brew looking at my car I just tell her,
"I'm just keeping my eye on YOUR investment!" Works every time!

Totally normal! I've been driving Vettes for 25 years. If I had a penny for every time I just stood there and stared at her, I'd be sitting on a beach right now!! My next "girlfriend" (Laguna Blue, A8, Z51, 3LT convertible) arrives late next week. I can barely stand the anticipation!! ...and to make matters worse, I may be out of town on a business trip when the trailer arrives!!! GAH!!!!!!!!
