My wife turned to me today after about 1 1/2 weeks of ownership and said "I don't know why, but this car doesn't make me want to puke the way the M3 did." Makes a fella proud.

Does she swallow?

Sorry, but that was just to easy.

Before I met my wife and when I had my Audi TT, I was in a relationship wherein she shot her lunch all over my car's dash and INTO one of the vents. What's really nasty is that we had just dined on fried clams with lots of tartar sauce. I was a total gentleman about it (which was really hard - I loved that car!).
Every time I turned the A/C on I would smell vomitty clams for the first few seconds.
Alfie, if you see this post, I'm sorry I didn't mention this when I traded her in (the car, not her).

Ha, ha, ha, ha - that's the perfect trade! Of course, this is why I'm reluctant to purchase a used car!

i love it when my wife pukes in my car. here is why.
i have always been a bimmer head.
had a m coupe, she was about to puke. i TOLD her to puke to the right, out the window (i was not about to slow down or stop).
well, she got confused and puked left all over my shifter and ctr console. needless to say, i was furious and had a TALK with her. she spent the next whole day cleaning the interior of my car. i was still furious. that weekend, a brand new boxster S showed up in the garage ;-)

from then one, it's one porsche after another. however, she doesn't puke anymore ;-( i had plans for ferrari's after her next puking episode. tried to get her to track with me to induce puking, but she wont go....

Bring back the memories:

1992: Third date with (now) wife. Thought she would enjoy a romantic cruise up the Route 1 coastal route from Rye, NH to Wells, ME in my 1991 Miata. Near Bath (about 20 mi in) we stop for her carsickness to subside. Still married me in 1994. Miata = Honda Accord by 1995.

2000: Buy an Audi S4 (we now have two small kids, so need the rear seats). First time in the car out for dinner = 1 hour of carsickness recovery at home.

2005: Finally buy a 911 S Cab. I cringe as she gets in the car. 20 minute ride through curvy, hilly Pittsburgh roads. The verdict: "this isn't so bad, I actually like it." Blasting the stereo with the top down is another story.

I knew the Porsche was for me...

I'm gonna just have to brag. No fights. No persuasion needed. The $$ was in the bank I turned to my lovely wife of 25 years and said "I've always wanted a Porsche". She said: "don't stint on the options...get your dream car and do it right". I dunno...but I think I have it good!! And before anyone asks...yes, she does.

Sounds like my kind of girl in every way. No doubt you've treated her right too.

My wife reads books and magazines in the passenger's seat. A few miles after breakin I found a nice long stretch of road and pumped the car up to 150mph.

I said, "Look honey, here's 150mph!"

She literally didn't even look up from her book and said, "That's nice honey."

Funny

I do have to sat that in my years of driving an E46 M3 the only thing that ever made me want to puke was the message board.

My wife has yet to ride in mine...it is below her!

What made me blow lunch was the stupid shark fin antenna on mine which I removed after three days of ownership. Wish I could do the same for the fake quads (at least they're not Ys though).

My wife, while not understanding my car vice, is at least supportive. When I traded in my Porsche for a BMW 645 (traded my dream Porsche for the Bimmer, was heartbroken) I soon began complaining about some of the annoyances in the 645. After about a month or so of this, she looked at me and said, "You need to get back into a Porsche."

Picked up my new C2S Cab a few weeks ago.
