I dig wagons as much as the next guy...but, it looks WAY too much like a Volvo V70!
The rear end is damn near identical!

That explains a lot!:biggrin:

I have actually always like the V70R wagons! So, no hate from me.
The GTR wagon just looks way too similar IMHO

I thought this one was cool - and it was only $1500. Owner is now on mx5atl with a Miata.

Wagons FTW. I didn't click the link is it the new GTR front end wagon? It's just a Staega or whatever they are with GTR front end, looks weird I think lol.

Volvo wagons = sexy.

I wouldn't mind a Subaru wagon either.

So we can all agree that it's an overpriced Volvo right?

I would be willing to bet with a couple grand on top of the V70R price tag that you could outrun a GTRwagon without much trouble (and without constant tranny replacements :D)

I seriously doubt any Volvo ever made will do a 3.3sec 0-60 run, and the tranny problems only occur with the use of launch control.

I think BMW makes the best looking wagon EVER!
