Actually, she is not making me sell it, i just have a hard time enjoying it by myself and not being able to use it. That is the main reason, if she loved riding in it, it wouldn't be an issue at all. I wish I had weekends to enjoy it with the club but my work doesn't allow me the time.
I got lucky the first time as I married my high school sweetheart (the first and only girl I have dated) and have been married for 27 years.
I can always get another car but could never find another one like her.
It just sucks all the way around getting rid of it but I am in no rush to either.

These were the first words of your thread:
" Well, she is up for sale!
I wish it were my wife and not my car!"

I guess you thought about it a little more. Maybe you were having a bad day.
I wish you luck.

All kidding aside, put the car in storage for a year. It won't cost you all that much to do it, in a year from now the Cobra market will probably be better, and, more importantly, by then both you and your wife may have come to your senses.

I wouldn't sell just yet... mine is 5 years old last month with just over 1k miles. My wife who loves the car and has driven it, is very uncomfortable whenever we have it out and will not let me sell because eventually she/we will be able to enjoy it. Personally once you get out of town these cars are a blast, but in town you have to deal with all of the attention good and sometimes very BAD. Keep it!
