She's obviously got more class than to do cartwheels in the parking lot. Conservative and reserved. She was positive and she certainly enjoyed it. But she's not a car person as much as most of us here are. But that's ok. I think later that night he probably got his thank you.

My wife sorta had the same reaction when I bought her Cadillac as a "thanks for putting up with me and my car fetish all these years" gift. She really loves the car, but she doesn't orgasm over it. Maybe that's why I understand her subdued enthusiasm with a camera in her face and in her work parking lot.

She doesn't care because she knows that it really isn't hers. If he didn't put it in her name then it isn't hers. She seems educated enough to know this.

I'd give her the Tony Danza but I wouldn't let her fart on me

She certainly did smile when she was driving it, but if she isn't really a car person, I can understand that she isn't as excited about a new car as most of us would be...

Maybe she'll become a car addict when she floors it for the first time (and hopefully doesn't crash it)

I thought I missed the reaction as well. That video sucked.

He totally bought her a "bowling ball". It's hilarious.

Comments about car: looks amazing, but sounds like a friggin truck. I hate how it sounds.

LS motors NEED long tubes to sound good.
