Very cool.. Having a significant other who is understanding of our love for cars is a good thing..
My wife likes the FRS but doesn't care to drive it.. After 39 years of marriage.. She's understanding of my car addiction... I mentioned the other day that I saw a go-fast mod for my car that I'm interested in, the innovate SC kit.
She said, so.. Go buy it.. It will be an early birthday gift.. Nice huh..
Maybe it was the fact that she just got back from a 2 week vacation in Europe with her sister.. Which cost me more than the damn blower...
Be careful.. These spouses have their ways of getting even... And then some!

You guys need to wise up and run separate bank accounts. She makes her money, I make mine. We go half on bills. I buy what I want, she buys what she wants. Everyone's happy and no one has to ask for "permission" to buy anything. Eliminating the money problem makes for a happy marriage.

I bought my FRS from a friend after a several day test drive. Before I had even signed the papers, my wife had already ordered a Seibon hood.

I have had similiar times with my fiance, for Christmas last year she gave me a shift kit and CAI for my MS3. And she is also the one who got me to buy a FRS.
After a couple years of hearing me talk about how I eventually wanted an FRS/BRZ as a project, one Sunday my fiance told me to quit talking about it, we are going to a dealer TODAY and getting the car TODAY so I could drive what I wanted. 6 hours later I was driving my Firestorm FRS :-p

I also have a full Google Spreadsheet with my part wishlist, complete with links. It is shared with her, so if she is not getting me Bruins/Patriots/Celtics/Red Sox tickets, she goes there for any gift giving needs.

Apparently his route between work and home is downhill both ways.

On the original topic, I haven't gotten one yet because I'm waiting to see if there are any significant changes in the 14 models, but I already have permission to throw the warranty to the wind and supercharge the thing.

She has a list of parts from me and she came up with her own list. hopefully within two years my moding will be complete. i wanna change out the lights for hid/led, shark fin antenna, red carbon fiber the dock and steering wheel, trd cool intake, trd exhaust yeah I have the extended warranty, the red trd brake pads because I have the firestorm, debating the trd black rims or keep the stock rims, and racing seat belts. I think separate bank account works for some but I firmly believe we should have same account since she takes care of paying the bills, well 95% of bills are auto drafted anyways. If I can't trust someone with my money why am I marriage to her plus she hardly says no but she does say if you want this then you can't have that.
