That is sick. The right height, color, and of course, over 600HP in a wagon. I'd probably

I’m surprised he didn’t choose the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo.

Shooting brake, I think...? Just because it has the shape of one for me. I dunno...I can never get that differentiation straight.

I vote Shooting Brake for the Aero Deck:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting-brake


Since the 1960s, the term has evolved, describing cars combining elements of both station wagon and coupé body styles

Looks like a JDM (or Chinese domestic mkt, CDM?) Odyssey? Less minivan, more wagon for the Asian markets?

I'm pretty sure that's a previous gen Civic. Not my style though. That gen didn't look the best imo.

Not sure what that one is, but Honda used to make the Jade RS, a 6-seater mini-MPV based on the Fit/Jazz IIRC. 1.5T / 147hp L15B? engine.
Basically what I would drive if I were still living in Singapore...

^ Did BMW make those in an M variant? I know anyone can add an M to the rear deck, but the single side exhaust tells me no. Anyone know?

According to here (https://gearpatrol.com/2019/06/24/bmw-m5-touring-wagon/), BMW made M5 Tourings for the e34 and e60 generations. Does that help?
