Maybe if she was wearing her thong while sitting in them she would have liked them then. 😜

My deterrent is that mine’s is a manual. Not saying that womens can’t drive a stick, is just that my wife doesn’t know how to drive that kind of stick and it works for me. LOL

Mike02z · 01-04-2024, 01:31 PM

My wife won’t drive any of my cars. She is afraid to hurt my “baby”

What he said!

A lot of guys would love it if their wife/girlfriend was as interested in cars as they are. My husband has never been told NO about anything with 4 wheels and vice versa!

^^^^ It really depends on the reason for her wanting to drive it. If it’s due to the performance aspect of it and it’s being a car thing, then yeah, she’s a keeper. If it’s because it’s the new thing or it looks better or sportier than her X7 or some other vanity reason, then no. Lol

It's been her dream car as well . She ain't got a lick of vanity In her . I'll tell you iam very blessed to have her. I just don't want anyone to drive my dream car lol 🙃

Aalfred · 01-04-2024, 02:13 PM

Get an M2 with buckets for urself, Keep the M3 for the wife and you and the X7 for the family. Problem solved !!!

Then you my friend have a dilemma with your Delima.

SwankPeRFection · 01-04-2024, 02:32 PM

In all honesty, she could easily trade in her X7 and get an M3 as well. If you guys need the room of the X7, perhaps waiting a little longer to see if BMW would consider bringing the wagon M3 over here and maybe that would give her enough room for stuff as well as the M performance she loves in your 3. Just a thought…

No way, that's a great wife since she was supportive of getting an M3 in the first place!

This is the right answer!

s58 · 01-04-2024, 02:39 PM

Could trade the x7 in for the upcoming M5 Touring.

yousefnjr · 01-04-2024, 02:40 PM

I think she’s trying to tell you that she’ll chip in for some new turbos

Bxss · 01-04-2024, 03:33 PM

Sell the G80 and buy another X7.. I bet she wont be begging to drive your car anymore after that

BryanCO · 01-04-2024, 05:01 PM

Tell her to drive her boyfriend’s M3.

Tobster3 · 01-04-2024, 06:04 PM

My wife does not yet know I ordered a manual and she’s never driven a manual in her life. lol!! It’s MY car!

Good luck!
You are lucky. If we didn't have 3 children. I would trade in her x7 snd get her maybe an m5 lol . 2in 1

I always wondered how my parents did it with 5 kids and a Chevy Nova?
The problem with the X7 for your wife is that it is too big and a hassle for her if she just needs to go for a short trip. An X5M is just as good for hauling three kids.

Bimmerfun82 · 01-05-2024, 07:00 AM

My wife can’t drive a manual, so although she’s threatened to take the M3 she has to settle for the X7. Problem solved!

TopJimmy · 01-05-2024, 08:44 AM

Get downpipes and exhaust and turn the burbles up…she should bail out. Then once she thinks it’s too loud you can flash the burbles away.

We are all praying for your swift recovery sir.

My likes the M3cx-drive because of its power. It is pretty stable and confidence inspiring. She is afraid to drive my gt3 for fear of scratching something or someone on the road hitting it.
