I should call you, "Bling". Okay that was retarded. Sorry, it's been a long day.
When people ask what body kit to get, or whether to go for handleing or power they always (aside from the usual flames) get "Whatever floats your boat" or "Whatever makes you happy" I'd say that applies here pretty well. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Congrats!!
I've been married 4 and a half years! You are making the right choice. Cars come and go, good women are hard to find! Just get her involved in your intrests, my wife knew nothing about cars or racing, now she wants to go to the driving schools and watch Formula 1 early Sunday morning with me!!!
Have Fun!!!

Do you know how to analyze diamonds? It is a very tricky business. A friend of mine has his degree in gemology (phd), so if you need any specific info, pm me.

i say congrats on the whole Diamond Hot girl thing, but i also say you can kiss your Nissan Sports car Dreams Goodbye, before long you'll be mobbin to the store in a MAV ( Mormon Assult Vehicle )Better known as a Minivan. although, if she Likes fast sports cars, you might get away with keeping it and getting something with enough space to hold you both and a car seat, my girlfriend says if we get married, my nissan goes and her Teg stays, heh, YEAH RIGHT, the Teg is gone and we gets a Pathfinder. im going to build up my car and Keep the damn thing so my ONLY kid has a DAR ( Dope A$$ Ride )
she wants a mercedes clk, and soon...
yeah shes a good one, she signed up for the forum to bump a few of my threads, i told her some thigns to say and a few of you congradulated her on joining...

Good call! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> I did the same w/ my wife. Now she gets just as excited when I do mods to the car as I do. She now loves the 240 and wants one of her own or the 350z.
I plan on taking her to an open track day to let her get a feel of running the car hard and the atmosphere and then take her to a driving school <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/inlove.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':love:'>

Well since people always post pics of there cars, does that mean your going to post pics of your girl? <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hehe:'> j/k
No but I know what you mean cause I was in a relation ship with a girl for like 2 years and then she fronted me on Commitment or cars(at the time 91 honda). Lets just say I am single now. Its been 3 yrs since and I have yet to have another serious relationship or date a girl that was as beatifull as her. Well if you look at the flipside I am no longer driving a honda <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> and I am happy with my S13(If Ian would come through and get me my parts).
Good luck with the whole relationship thing and as long as you do what feels right everything should work out.

a blue diamond though, I think that she will think that you are cheap if you find one that color. diamonds are judged by how colorless they are; the closer to having no color at all the better. anyway good luck. BTW it never said that he was getting married...lol what are you scared of?

Congrats man!.. I agree 100% with the "Get your woman involved in what you love.." that way she doesn't feel left out or neglected, b/c they will. I try to involve my GF everychance I get. She wants to get a prelude and hook it up.. I might have to talk her out of that one though.. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

Oh man bing I had to do the exact same thing last weekend. I was in a dilemma between suspension and wheels or a diamond ring for my gf. Well I ended up choosing the ring as well as late 2 year anniversary gift.

Bing, you just can't say you got a beautiful wife and not show her to us... so you gett'n married?
anyway, if a diamond ring looks good, does matter if's expensive or not. It just happen that blue diamonds aren't as rare as clear ones. If my girl complained about a good lookin ring as cheap, she's out the door! those are gold diggers...

i was gonna get a .25 - .50 karat stone but settled for a better quality smaller stone at .17, VS quality.
the colour you ask.....

the diamond will be set in a simple setting in 14-18k white gold and will be ready for the one year anniversery, no i'm not married yet.

not necessarily true, it isnt the color that is always an indicator of price, it is the quality of the diamond that has the greatest affect, there are diamonds in every colour, red, green, blue, orange, and some of them are nearly flawless, they can actually be extremely expensive,
the hope blue diamond for example...
the colour can be a factor but i wont pretend like i know more than i do.
but i do know one thing, it aint cheap...
