Interesting topic.

I drive a E90 335i in Monaco Blue and my girlfriend loves the color and the performance of the car.

That being said, she likes my '98 Maxima for the size and room inside.

What can you do.

My wife always tells me to stop dicking around with my car. I think you can figure out how she feels about it.

My girl loves my car. She wants to "drive it and use launch control". Sometimes she even asks me to send pictures of the car.

I taught my gf to drive manual in my car so she loves to drive when ever I let her....The car doesnt feel the same way about her though.

My wife was pretty upset that I spent so much on my car. Calls it "my mistress". Cheaper than a real mistress. The, less than a year later when she wanted to buy a new car, heated leather seats were suddenly mandatory.

My kids always want to take my car when we go out. Might be because of the heated rear seats.

My gf thinks my car is "super fast, really cute, like a secret agent car" (maybe it's the tint and blacked emblems?)

Thankfully she can't drive

My wife loves the way my car looks, loves how quiet and smooth it is compared to hers, loves the heated seats, but hates that I like it so much. She gets pissed when I remind her (on the super rare occasion that she drives it) that there's way more car out front than the SUV she's used to driving. She feels like I'm telling her how to drive. Honestly, I'm just trying to prevent more front end meetings with curbs and parking blocks. Yeah, I've done it myself. Just trying to help her have foresight from my screw ups, but somehow it doesn't get interpreted that way.

Girlfriend has never been as upset at me as she was when I removed all my mods. She was the girlfriend of the guy with the blue bimmer. It was her image and she loved it. She loved giving dudes shit that her boyfriends car was faster than their <insert type of fast stock car>. Loved how loud and obnoxious it was. Could not understand why I wanted to remove my Bov for forged diverter valves. I know she had low self-esteem but it was ok by me. She would encourage me to make it faster and faster. She even bought me a vorsteiner CF hood with painted sides.. I miss my 335.. but she misses it more.

So you're back with her NYC?

Funny exchange with mine this morning about my car going in for service

"Are you at the office?"
"No I'm leaving the dealer"
"What's wrong with your car?"
"Nothing...scheduled service"
"Like a check up?"
"...yea"
"Aww it's like a little person. It goes to the doctor and everything"

I am... she lands back in NYC tomorrow evening. I don't know why I keep doing this; maybe I am masochistic?

hah that is hilarious. She was so attuned to the 335 that she would tell me when she thought something wasn't right.
