What Kind of Car is Your Spouse?

Mine, a Lincoln Town Car - a soft full ride, the kind only a mature man will appriciate. I had my share of vettes, vegas and 69 Malibus - I would take my full bodied ride built in the USA anyday!

(I guess the Coors Lites are talk'n now!)

So what is yours?

Mine would have to be a Ford Taurus SHO, made in America, mild mannered looks, but look out for what's under the hood.

Probably an Alfa. Exotic, sometimes needs a bit more maintenance than I care for, but, I really can't get enough of her.

I'd have to say my better half is a 911. She's got beautiful lines that you love to run your hands over, the, erm, headlights are a defining feature, she's reliable and dependable, a good mix of fun and practical, you have to respect her or she'll bite, engaging in that you can't just switch onto autopilot, and she doesn't always start on the first try

I'm gonna have to go with what's sitting in the garage....a 911 TARGA. A sure classic with fantastic lines....couple issues here and there. Gets a load of glances, and looks best with the top off. How's that???

I have to agree. Small, well shaped (small yet perfectly formed front end, tight, great-shaped rear end), exciting yet reliable, turns heads and very rewarding if treated correctly.

Works great for me!

I married a South Louisiana woman. South Louisiana women are more like airboats than cars.

AMEN Shuie! My wife is from New Orleans. She's never let me down, handles the bumps in the road well with me, puts up with my style of driving, fun to rub on, but since she's from So. Louisiana, has webbed feet (all weather?) instead of slicks.
Love her madly. Would never trade for a newer model.
