Default Okay need help Moro Blue Avant or Nogaro Sedan - Wife wants Avant

I actually have the better deal on the Nogaro by about $2K, but the wife is pushing for the flexiblity of the Avant. I'm trying to come up with other details on why the sedan is better. I've covered the usual suspects and quantified the deal, but she's offering to cover the difference so I need the creativity of this board to assist me in convincing the 'other' decision maker. And I've already run the gambit of better color, better resale, you can hide the stroller so chicks still check you out, etc. She's telling me to get what I want and then following it up with the 'I don't know why you ask me my opinion anyway as you always do what you want to do..' which means I need to rally with something...Help!

Default Sedans are faster!!! :P

hehe...both are amazing. Why not make the wife happy and reap the rewards (you can easily use the "Hey, we got the car YOU wanted, so this time it is my call" excuse for at least a year)

And the only thing that will remind you it's a wagon is when you step out and look back. ;-)
