All the girls ride w/ me LOVED having the t-tops off. I had a girl riding with me one time and I had the t-tops on, and she asked for me to take them out!!!

My father warned me about stuff like this when i first bought my car. He knew how it was when he was married to my mother and he had his Camaro. I've already ditched one over it!!!! Thank god she's gone!!!!!!

well consider yourself lucky then. only time mine allows tops off or windows down is if its really hot out (no a/c). other than that, if shes with me and its nice out and not hot, windows up and tops on


thats why i try to avoid her riding with me in perfect weather

In the summer, I have the t-tops off no matter what...unless it's raining of course. If they don't want to ride w/ me becuz it will mess up their hair, then they can find another ride...tees are staying off! Haha!

My girlfriend gives me **** about spending money on the car but I always have to reminder her that she met me because of the car so she can't say ****. If she doesn't stop giving me **** soon I think I might have to cut her loose

I jokingly tell the GF the car has been with me longer than she has so...... That usually keeps her quiet for a little while I love'em both though

We compromise and do it in the back seat. My back is ruined but otherwise I'm o.k.

I get to love both at the same time!!!!

It just annoys her that while we are at it I comment on the top needing repair or something like that.

or tell her if she wants the car's tops on she'll have to take her's off. one or the other.

as far as a girl that complains about your car, complain about her hobbies. if she acts hypocritically, consider leaving her.

ya i could do that and just put up with her bitching and just ignore her. or when she gets out of the car to grab the tops out of the hatch, leave her

haha id make sure the tops are on and windows are up (dark tinted)

she sort of supports the hobby. she wanted a mustang but i convinced her into me buying her a T/A. trying to work out probs before i take the plunge buying her a T/A. she loves going to car shows and the races. shes always b!tching about my car but i bet she secretly enjoys it. hell she always wants to drive mine. i never let her take mine alone just incase she decided to crash. shes a blonde

most of you are talking like a bunch of immature a$$holes. You guys do realize that the OP was a girl right? She has posted before about getting stuff for her BF's transam. There is a simple thing that most of us should have learned and its called respect.

Im not going to let a gf tell me not to work on my car, but I have listened to it before. It doesn't really bother me that much. If they arn't into cars you have to expect them to not want you to spend all your time with your car.
