Thoughts and Advice Needed

I find myself in a bit of a dilemma and would love to hear your thoughts and advice on a situation involving my wife and her brand new Z4. She bought it about 6 months ago as a fun car, but it's been spending most of its time in the garage. She only drives it around 20 miles per month to attend car meet events.

I've been encouraging her to enjoy the Z4 more regularly, but her main concern is the condition of the roads here in the Bay Area. She believes the poor surface, potholes, bumps, and steep driveways would potentially damage the car's suspension, tires, or front bumper. As a result, she feels uncomfortable and lacks confidence in driving it.

Now, I have a 911 that I happily drive whenever I want, despite the road conditions. I've tried expressing my perspective to her, but it seems I'm not getting through. How would you handle a situation like this? Any advice on encouraging her to embrace the joy of driving the Z4 more often, or perhaps any insights on addressing her concerns about the road conditions?

Looking forward to your valuable input! 🚗💨
