I'm going to need your help with your s/c 550i. The Vishnu chipped 335i and GTO with the Corvette C6 engine spanked all the 545/550s.

Different people have different way to allocate their money after married. You are one of the lucky guy that your wife won't say anything on the way that you spend your money. I guess you must be a very rich person such that your spending is a tiny fraction of the overall family income.

BMW is very expensive in Hong Kong and not many young couple could afford it unless they are rich via either high income or they come from rich families.
