Now I just have to talk the wife into it.

MY wife wouldn't care one way or the other, she has an open purse for what she wants.
She don't need to ask, I would ask if she wanted to go with me to pick the car up. only if includes dinner. lol
I agree. I just bought 2 more parts cars and asked the wife if she wanted to go. All she cared about was if there was a coffee break included.
