What does the spouse of an M3/M4 owner drive?

What kind of car does your spouse drive?

Do you let him/her drive your M3/M4?


In my case, my wife drives an MB ML350. She is not a car person, and doesn't really understand the whole car enthusiast thing. I tried to get her to look into the new X5, but she hates BMW's (I think it has something to do with my infatuation with my car... ) She has never driven my M4 (or my previous M3) and thankfully, has zero interest in trying.

Mainly, I'm curious if your spouse's car is "on par" with yours...

Let's see them!

'08 E90 328i. I think it's time for an upgrade. She's over 100k miles and I'm barely over 2k on my 2015 F80 lol. I feel kinda bad.

And then I don't. She spends her money on clothes and accessories. I spent mine on cars and machinery.

B7 Audi S4 with 6MT.

She can drive my car whenever she wants and I can take her's whenever I want.

In summer, my M4 is the favorite hauler for family outings, while her S4 becomes #1 in winter .

2012 Audi Q5. Doesn't drive my M4 yet and doesn't seem to eager to do so. I'm fine with her driving it as long as she stays away from curbs and drive thru's.

(There is another thread like this one in OT.)

In 42 years of marriage, my wife and I have never had a "his" car or "her" car. Whatever we owned were "our" cars. So my wife drives our 6MT M4 - in fact she drives it more than I do. We also have a 2001 Dinan Z3 3.0i that we bought new in 2000.

My wife prefers to drive our John Cooper Works Mini Clubman. Occasionally, she'll drive the F80.

My wife has driven my car once, but doesn't seem eager to do it again. I think she is too scared to mess it up. I tell her she can drive it, but so far no more drives.

She does say it's the best car I've ever owned and it's the only car I've owned where she actually asked to drive it (some previous cars include 07 335i and E92 M3 coupe).

Only had it for 3 weeks so I'm sure she'll drive it again.

Bicycle. I don't allow him to drive if I have to be in the same vehicle.

The bicycle is white op.
