Reason for getting rid of the Stang?

You know, my wife made me get rid of my Z3 ("we need a bigger car", "I don't want to learn stick", "not comfortable", "my hair! put the top back up!"...)

What happened to your Stang?

I Know how you feel, back when i was in the market, before i bought my C300 i really wanted a mustang GT. Their just so fast, and so much fun to drive, and in my opinion the best muscle car ever built. But in the end Benz is always better

Tell her that when she dresses well she attracts too much attention as well!

Just kidding man, if she is the girl you love it is worth it.
