    I bought my first Ferrari a month before I proposed. We got married and I moved on to Porsches because the first Ferrari left us on the side of the road one time too many. 20 years later my wife noticed I was starting to read Fchat and Ferrari car reviews again and told me to go buy another Ferrari. I'm now on my 6th Ferrari.

    There probably are women that see a man's interest in cars as competition, either as misdirected fascination or unwanted allocation of financial assets in other directions, but it is by no means universal.

    I've had ferraris, and other marquees, for years now, and since I met the Mrs she has simply accepted that I'm a car nut, and every few months, a new one will turn up. I've calmed a lot over the years, from always having around six, five of which would be supercars, down to one super car, and dailies for each of us (but a CLA45AMG and a Range Sport Supercharged!, some dailies huh). Long as I buy her what she wants, she lets me buy what I do..... perfect!

    If your wife interferes with your Ferrari buying, you've got the wrong wife.

    Yes... and if you have to say, "my wife let me get a Ferrari", then you should check with her to see if it's ok with her if you get a set of balls. :)

    This ^^

    It sure does seem that those who bought their Ferrari's first never married. That just seems strange to me.

    A Ferrari is an engagement ring you buy for your Ego. We gotta give the married guys a break here. They're simply asking their wives for permission to have an affair with themselves 😊

    Bought my first Ferrari at 19 and single. Got married at 27 andcstill married to this day. 4 F cars in the garage and a Mac but its my wife now thats turned into a car nut and shopping for super cars. She is currently doing a spec a 488 Spider.

    As far as being married or single well don't really care about the cars, my family gives me more joy than any car will ever give. Prefer the married life. Cant remember the last time a Ferrari made me a nice home cooked meal and greeted me with a hug after getting home from a days work

    Generally, if married, the wife will be amenable to super car purchases so long as it does not adversely impact on your financial position. Meaning she will still get whatever she deems important.

    I took the position, once I left home and no longer had to answer to my parents, I was never again going to be put in a position where I required permission to buy anything I wanted.

    There are no absolutes in life. We all have heard of people who are irresponsible with finances. Folks in debt to their eyeballs who make impulse buy. The wife who stops the husband from taking another step into financial disaster may not be "the wrong wife".

    I responded to a "TV character" with another "TV character".
