If you got the money and got a plan then get then go for it. I mean car buying isn't an impulse kind of thing it shouldn't be a key reason to leave someone specially for this kind of car. |

I think you all are ignoring the big issue here - why the hell is there a naked dude in that video?

In any case, if the Significant Other rejects your desires you need to reevaluate your priorities and no this does not mean run for the hills, although that may be the outcome. |

If you couldn't afford something then don't buy it but if your holding down a good job, things look good plus it's your money and not both your money buy what you want (with in reason). |

Mine didn't care much, coming from a WRX she liked the lower insurance and better gas, but she said she liked the WRX more. I think she just like it more for the memories around it. A bit of a emotional connection to the WRX where there isnt one with the BRZ

Very true, I think the real failing of this ad is that it displays dysfunctional relationships as the norm. I think that if I showed up to pick up my gf/bf (4+ years at this point for my personal reference) in a brand new shiny sports car he/she knew nothing about they would flip out quite a bit regardless of price. |

I guess I am really lucky then.
Wife & I went to the dealership to look at a Legacy. Drove the legacy & the BRZ, and couldnt decide between practical or fun (I live in Colorado). The WIFE was the one that convinced me to get the BRZ. She reminded me: "Hey when it snows, there's always the Suburban ;-)" |

Wow, depressing ad and more depressing posts. Glad my wife let me pick the car I wanted and glad "we" can afford it.
Today marked 23 years in our relationship and it just gets better and better!!! |

My response to those bat-shit crazy wives would be: Please enlighten me on what your engagement ring can do for you except depreciate.
I will compromise to make my girl happy as long as I'm not burying myself a grave in either debt or in the literal sense but when she makes it her job to make sure I sell off absolutely everything I have to make me unhappy and my life a living hell, trust me, I am all for gender equality and I will make sure she shares my hell for better or worse. I remember seeing one of those "My mother-in-law-to-be is being a bitch to me and I don't know why" type TV shows and the fiancee's mother hated the guy for no reason. The host asked her why she hated him so much, couldn't answer. Brought in a towing company to sell the 3000gt to a scrapper and said to the guy "If you love my daughter you will do this for her." Off set, she admits that making this guy hate her and torturing him makes her happy and relieved. The dude and his fiancee were balling their eyes out wondering why she's is doing this. Finally she admits her only friend is her daughter and she doesn't want to give her up to the guy. Only friend? Hmmm, I wonder why. Woman logic. |
