Any wagon spottings?

Since production has been stopped for a while on the TSX Wagon, and Acura only planned to produce 4000 this year the TSX Wagon is a pretty rare car. I never thought I'd see another wagon on the streets..

Well I saw a Graphite Luster Metallic yesterday when I was driving home. It was weird finally seeing my car driving next to me as I never thought it would happen. Anyone else spotted a TSX Wagon?

I think I've only seen the wagon twice on the highway..that's it. It's like seeing Bigfoot...a rare sighting indeed.

saw one a month ago causing traffic on the parkway with the whole front end crushed. Sad to see endangered species ending up in the junkyard so early

Saw one driving near Apple Valley Road in the Brookhaven area, Atlanta a few weeks back. It was a CBP and it looked good!

I bought one 3 weeks ago and have only seen one other (Vortex Blue) where my kids take swimming lessons. I wave at the guy.

I was stopped at a red light and a man in a Passat wagon said to me, "Nice car. They're supposed to be good."

I've seen a total of three on the highways of NY and NJ in what amounted to a brief glance at highway speeds. But I've never had an up close look at one.

Sadly, it's not for sale up here in Canada.

I did see one in Woodbridge, VA when I visited my Aunt in Arlington, VA during March Spring Break.

The only color I've never seen in person was the red. How'd it look?

Mine is only the 3rd one sold in my city (purchased in May) and I haven't seen either of the other two yet. I do get some looks and generally good comments. Mine is red and it's kind of like a dark cherry metallic color. It's nice to have a color that isn't a common sight.

Yes, in my driveway! New to Acura, traded my Passat Wagon. So far, so good. Many positive comments from my friends and co-workers.

Prior to my purchase I had only seen one in the wild.

there should at least be 7 here on Oahu (mine being one of them). Our dealership had 5 non-tech in white or forged silver, and two forged silver techs... haven't seen any other wagon as of yet (except when i stopped by my dealer to pick up my mats).

I think I've only seen one in the Philly area, which is weird because the 2G sedan is extremely popular. I think there are four in my tiny neighborhood alone. But I saw a few Euro Accord wagons in South Africa in Dec. 2009/Jan. 2010, which was a nice preview for the TSX wagon here, and I liked it. It looked identical to the TSX, but for the grill.

I have seen one other than ours in Chattanooga,TN. The local dealer said they had sold 2, but we bought ours 2 hours away in Huntsville.

The red is nice... it's a deep, rich, red. I think the TL comes in that color too. Either way, its a nice dark red.

Haven't seen any wagons yet in Richmond, aside from the dealer's lot. But honestly I only see a 2Gen sedan every other week or so. Definitely not often...and I like this!

What's interesting is that when I was car shopping, I saw 4 wagons in the same dealership and apparently they all sold in a week, but then I still see none on the road around here.

I think we need a wagon picture thread... not that we all don't know what they look like... haha.

Ah ok. I was picking my dog up from daycare on Northside Drive. I live in Marietta, so we're pretty close to each other. What dealer did you get yours from? I went to Jackson Acura off Alpharetta Highway.

I'm making a run from Northern VA to Philly this weekend, 495 and 95 here I come.
The only Sport Wagon (besides mine) I've seen was another FSM heading north on 495 back in April. I hope to see a few more, but not too many. I like the fact that the car is somewhat rare. I don't want it to become the next RAV4 or CRV, which you see about a thousand times per day.
