My girlfriend loves my car! She didn't know i had it at first, on our first date i drove my old 97 chevy z71! As soon as she rode in it she loved it and used to always beg me to take it out and go for a ride. After about six months i let her drive it and now she always wants to drive when we take it anywhere. She even told me my exhaust was too quiet after she heard a true dual system and is encouraging me to purchase one. Maybe ill let her here a cammed car and see if that will be my christmas present!

My fiance' likes my car. She didn't like me spending money on it. She didn't talk to me for a week after I bought the Firehawk. I figure I can always get another woman, they made millions of those, but they only made so many Firehawks man, we are talking limited numbers.

My girlfriend loves my car! She really doesn't mind me modding either.

I now have the SS and I've tossed around the idea of selling it and she wouldn't have it. She begged me to make sure I keep the car. So... I still have it, and I'm keeping it.

We have been together for about 5.5 years (I'm 22 and shes 23). When I was 15, I bought a 1993 Camaro Z28. When I met her for the first time (when I was 17) I was cruising in the Z28. She said part of the reason that made her want to go out with me was my car!

She loves the car and even has a performance car herself (even though it's a 2v pony). Asks to drive it alot too, but I don't mind.

Last GF didn't get it. Always nagging at me about owning 3 vehicles 2 of which are Camaro's. Lots of complaining about spending money on them and too much time. Took her to the drag strip and she didn't pass the test so I ditched her. Next GF I'm going to make her go through a rigorous test to see how she is. I can't handle women not into cars especially my cars. Wish me luck.

Fiance and I were driving around on a Sunday last July in my NBM Firebird V-6 and saw a NBM WS-6. She suggested stopping to look at it. I went to work Monday thinking I shouldn't do it. She called mid-day saying the credit union has us pre-approved, let's go! Had car by 6:00pm that day.

Got married 07-07-07. Wedding present was the C-5 front brake conversion I just put in last weekend. Happy boy.

My gf loves all 3 of my cars. My first was my 1997 Camry. The Formula replaced it. Needless to say she likes the Formula A LOT better! She likes my SHO, just because it's beat to hell and it's quite quick.

She's been my "old lady" for 26 years. When we started to date, my DD was a '78 black Trans Am. She loved the car, her father hated it. We'd take a cruise around town, and she would comment about all the looks the car would get. But sadly, our cruiser died a slow and painful death about 20 years ago.

Fast forward to last year---
We were on the road in our SUV thing and the old lady pointed to a car that looked like our old TA. She said she missed that car, and my new mission in life is to find one! Well, I found a suitable replacement Trans Am, it's only 22 years newer. When my son and I pulled in the driveway for the first time, the old lady was nervously waiting for us. She jumps in and we go for a short romp around the block. At the very first red light, an '05 GT on the cross street threw a few revs our way. She said this car gets alot of looks too, "teach me to drive." Well, she gave up on the M6 after about 20 minutes.

Fast Forward to 3 weeks ago---
We were cruising and she said my new mission in life is to find a white vert auto for her.
Old ladies that love cars - Priceless!
