Mark my words ... we are at the beginning of a revival of the popularity the wagon in North America.
Only - this time around, they will be sporty and fun to drive .... unlike the wagons of the past. (noteable exceptions - Subaru Outback, etc. which were always cool)

I :heart: wagons. I used to have an old red station wagon with the rear seat that looked backwards. It was so cool. I would buy another in no time.

I don't like wagons, but if I were to like one, this one does look good.

I think we are already there.
The Mazda one.. the Audi... the more powerful Subarus...
Wagons and hatches are VERY popular right now..

I hope so. My cousin and his wife just bought a WRX wagon... I think it looks awsome. It would nice to see americans move away from the SUV. Maybe for once I would be able to see on either side of me when backing out of a parking space.

Wagons rule. Yes, I like them. They will replace the SUV scene.

I like station wagons, kind of fill the gap between a van and a sedan. You get close to a minivan's space and control and handling of a sedan. Oh yeah, very comparable in space to SUV's without the bad gas mileage.

Yes, but from what I have read it's not coming to the US (at least not yet), only to Canada.
I :heart: wagons too.
The Holden at the top reminds me of the Opel Omega. Could be the same car since they are both GM brands.

Yes, gone are the days of the Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagons. Thankfully. My next car will most likely be a wagon, provided that a wagon version of the car I want exists.

Here's a kick ass old-school Volvo turbo wagon running 14 psi boost with a Volvo 940 engine swap.
