    Get a 3rd mortgage on the house and get seperated.... then buy the Z, then get back together... blame it on mid-life crisis!

    Look, go and get the car, sacrifice some other things for a few years, and just tell the wife the car is a new family member.

    I told my wife it was a "coping mechanism" and that I would be a lot less grumpy. Buy the car but set another $500 aside to take her shopping, in the Vette.
