It's funny to read all the posts that you guys posted above

Your posts are very insightful to me... as I'm preparing to get married next June hehehe :-)

It actually took me at least 6 months to convince my fiancee to let me buy the car of my dream, a 993.

One of the conditions of me buying the 993 is that I promised her that I will not spend any money to modify this car in the future.

hmm... now I wonder if I can keep that promise :P

At least for now, I'm spending the "car money" on driving events so she's okay with it for now hehehe...

I guess I will soon need some advice from you guys on how to successfully negotiate with your wife :-)

Cheers,

I can relate. I had just upgraded from a Boxster to my 993 and I had to promise a new house before any "modifications" or "upgrades".

Now the trick will be claiming things are "necessary" and not upgrades

Easy, you just tell her that you're the man of the house, and this is how it's gonna be!!!

You can always buy your wives a wrench set for an anniversary gift...
That and a tread mill always seem to go over well.
just some advice from a single guy.

I must chime in and say that my wife of 2.5 years is a bargain hunter. I am always proud of her when she comes home and shows me how much she saved on things from a sale. I have to be nice because she puts up with my expensive P-car habits.
