In Britain, many of the estate cars you guys lust after are a (fairly) common sight on the road, albeit unmodified

Oh yeah, my Accord's all over the place here, too. It's just a chassis I fell into and grew to really love. Even common cars can be cool.

Randomness here. Sorry, but this photo - at the same event - was just too funny not to post!

Even more awesome than the pink CLK was this guy who was trying to creep through the curtain to get a glimpse of the bikini contest before it started. Maybe he was hoping some girls would be changing in there and he could snap a boob slip or something. The thirst is indeed REAL…

I wish they produced the F10 M5 in Touring form, and then most importantly, officially import it to the US...

Lose the M badge off the back (which I know can be done) and we have a deal.
 
I read a statistic today that said wagons outsell their sedan counterparts 4-to-1 in the luxury segment in Germany (or perhaps it was Europe generally), whilst the same sedans, sadly, outsell their wagon counterparts 9-to-1 in Australia (where soccer mums in their droves are literally driving SUV sales to record highs). I hope the new W205 C-class estate reverses that trend, because oh-my-god, just look at it:

Damn you Australia!!!
 
Meanwhile in America, mid sized SUV's outnumber wagons roughly 50:1 :lol:

I have a soft spot for E46 Tourings... If only BMW offered them without X-Drive in North America... with 98% of them slushboxes.

I have a 99 E46 touring but it's a 323 and crappy slush box. I'm looking to get an E90 touring in manual to go with it.
 
Having driven BMW, I can at least say that their AT is pretty good compared to mine. Oh well...


My wagon looks better then any BMW estate I've ever seen

I'm putting 19" X5 sport wheels on mine. I have to finish painting them which I hate doing.
 
MG ZT-T 260 is one of my favorite wagons.

^ Those wheels off one of the SUVs? It's a nice look on your car, especially in that color.

That Magnum, though. I was looking through images of those recently and fell for that exact one. It's so tempting to trade in my RSX for a RWD R/T model, but then I looked at the fuel economy and I commute 60 miles for work everyday. I probably wouldn't bother looking for an SRT unless I came across an owner who doesn't know how rare they are but I badly want one; I think one of those sitting next to my project Accord wagon (maybe a Charger SRT8 front end...) would be such a sick stable.

It's too bad 95% of modified Magnums, like with other models built on that chassis, have huge/chrome rims, scissor doors, etc.

Yup, got an 01 xi AT, slowest of the slow :) Still love her cause she comes with sport package and DAT Oxford Green Metallic II....

Front spacers, coilovers, replace the factory speakers, sub and amp, Mtech bumper, bike roof rack, carbon fiber interior trim, and camber plates and she'll be done.
@CyborgGT the wheels are off a X5 sport and the fit almost perfect.
 
That is a Mk. 2 Ford Escort Van.
 
They also swapped the 1.1 Kent motor for a Cossie engine.
