$500 of GFs money to spend...

[phreshkid]

Please don't ask for e30 parts. It's a damn car man. Get something that you won't sell on accident when you sell the whole car which you one day will do.

[Joe G]

watch it is. But damn, free E30 parts sounded so good.

[Predzy743]

id vote e30 parts. If your car is as important to you as mine is to me, the parts in the car would be greatly appreciated

If you think you are in a serious relationship with her, spend the money for something better for both you and her, other than car. It's anniversary.

If you think she's just a "temporary" GF, then spend the money on anything you want for yourself.

make sure to buy her something too

like flowers

you'll get lucky

If you go out to nice places, I would buy a suit and a cheaper watch so that when you guys are together, she knows you look good because of her gift.

A car gift is shallow and selfish and won't make her happy, the point of giving someone a gift is to make each other happy.

Well done.

I ask for nothing but car parts and my fiance is happy to oblige. She realize that my car makes me happy...and making my faster and handle better makes me happier. =) I say go for the parts.

$300 personal thing, $200 on E30

[Van Westervelt]

If she is a long term keeper, get the nice 'fancy' thing and maybe a plate filler for your car. If its going to end in a screaming Jerry Springer episode in the next couple years maybe, I would put it all into the chariot.

[Joe G]

i have already gotten her tons of nice things, and taken her to many expensive dinners, that is why she is insistent on getting me something nice/expensive. Im gonna go with the watch. Thanks R3v.



Stay tuned for my birthday, thats gonna be nothing but boos and car goodies.

I see it in a different light. She gave YOU $500 for what you want. Clearly you're not broke by your previous examples i.e dinners, sweaters, earrings. If you want to get some parts for your car than do it; she gave YOU the money.

No, she wants to get something nice for you...not something you want

This. Big difference!

Just ask for the cash.
Who gives gifts anyways? NOT ME
