My wife doesn't drive, but if she learns and we get her a car. I'm thinking 240 wagon with Vette wheels.... I think she wants a Lexus SUV.... we need to work on that.

Ha, one thing she wants is an area the dogs can see out of, I told her these are great for that. There is a guy at my C&C that swaps newer turbo Volvo motors into older wagons, I could ask him about that stuff. I saw a 760 turbo intercooled wagon the other day, thats cool too.

And by "We need to work on that." you mean you're going to get her the Lexus.

It'll take some convincing probably, but she'll learn to embrace the wagon.
It has such a stigma from the past, but seriously, it's way better than an SUV. Safer, easier to drive around in, and more comfortable. I completely agree with a 240 wagon or thereabouts. Not quite so troublesome as the newer ones can be, and it's paired with absolutely beautiful timeless looks of the brick. I don't agree on the part of the 'vette wheels, but that's purely preferential.
Just make her watch Buy My Volvo and Bye My Volvo . There's also his new video .

What's wrong with Lexus SUV's?

Growing up my dad had several 240's. I kept telling him they would look great lowered, but for some reason he never listened to me. Now the young whippersnappers have inherited the bricks from their parents, I have been proven right.
You could also do this to it, if your wife would like to embarrass supercars on her daily commute.

Get the 240, or a 740 or a 940. Be happy.
Or, you could get her one of the early Lexus SUVs... Whichever one was a '90s Land Cruiser with a Lexus badge and hand her the keys to it. Or just a Land Cruiser.
Land Cruisers and Volvo wagons are awesome. Enough said.
