Ok, you guys have beaten me into submission!
I can agree with many of the comments regarding a car is meant to be driven etc.. I think a big part of my problem is the jealousy thing b/c she will end up driving the car alot more than I will.
So I'm going to experiment with an 'open' policy - she can take the car whenever she wants to. Now I can't guarantee that after the first rock chip or door ding the 'open' policy may be revoked, but I'll at least give it a try.
Since I have only had the car for about three months, I'm also hoping my overprotective ways may subside over time.
I guess I'm glad I didn't go for the new 911 (a consideration). I would probably be parking that in the living room so I could drink beers and just look at it. Not much driving would have happened with that car.
Thanks for the input. (my wife enjoyed the read, I'll probably never hear the end of this)
