My wife doesn't get excited about Saab particularly. Her father is a mechanic of American and Japanese cars and hates European cars, so that's the origin of it. She doesn't mind my Saabs since it has heated seats and a sunroof and airconditioning, which her celica does not have. So she's slowly gaining good taste in cars.
Face it, women generally don't get wound up and make neanderthal noises at the sight of a supercar, watching WRC, hearing the sound of a nice V12 or supercharged V8, or stop and gawk at a 1926 bugatti that's parked on the street. My wife especially likes toyotas though - celicas and 4runners to be specific. I offered to buy some new wheels for her car, but she didn't want them, as she doesn't see the value of wheels like I do. She drives a celica and takes notice of all the newer ones, but really wants a 4runner, and notices the nice ones on the road as well. I've even got her spotting Jaguars for me. She'll come home and mention she saw an XJ6 today, and she'll mention it had the square headlight so I wouldn't like it.
