My own personal Haloween horror story...

I just bought another Miata. My wife is unaware of this.

Not sure how this one ends...

Tempera paint like Pumpkin for the win?

Decapitation? Don't let her near the chainsaw today or you might become a halloween decoration

My wife has no idea my challenge car exists. It will work out.

Make sure your wife walks outside when you're raking leaves and say you found a Miata under a leaf pile.

You bought your wife a Miata? Such a good husband. She may even let you drive it sometimes.

Wait, what was the scary part?

Go trick or treating tonight and come back with the Miata. Honey look what they gave me a few streets over!!!!

In reply to DWNSHFT:

The scary part comes when I get home.

And what nice thing did you get her first, before you got yourself another toy? Oh wait, you didn't. Jeez, I thought you knew how this game is played

My wife just discovered my Challenge car for next year. It's no where near as nice as a Miata.

It's really bad when she says, "What the hell is this one...never mind" and just walks away.

In reply to SVreX:

That's kind of what I'm hoping for.

Put a bow on it and a "don't open until Christmas" tag on it

This usually does not work if you still have young kids at home.

In reply to Woody:

I know i just got a clone of your winter cross car, but this is getting tough to keep up with mr jones.

Tim's wife is aware of at least one more car than he thinks she knows about.

....and I just sold one of my toys(ok the money isn't in my pocket yet) which I'll convert into a down payment on my wifes first ever new car. I'm in the exact opposite world as Woody.

How can you even keep track? I figure Tim will just say it's Tom's & vice-versa.

I could see Tim owning more cars than Tim knows about.

Hey I just did this too, but mine is another v12tt benz (project). Paid for today and should be delivered next week. I'll show the wife once it gets here....I think she'll like it.

Good point. And Tom is following is Tim's footsteps a little too well. Woody, just give your wife my number. I can make her feel a lot better about things.

"Dear Marjorie."?

You might stay pretty busy...

I always enjoy your build threads. I'd buy one from you when you're done, but you do such a good job sorting them there's really nothing left to do to them. I don't know what I'd do with a sorted car.
