That is hilarious. My buddy is married and has been recently modding the hell out of his E36 M3. Wifey never rides in the car and and is oblivious to the new exhaust, wheels, etc. Problem is... they have joint account. He doesn't have to explain the mods cause she doesn't know the difference, but he has to explain the $$. So he has to plan his mods in advance so he can "slowly launder the money" as he puts it.
