We had a debate about this before. My opinion is a 3-door is a hatchback and a 5-door is a wagon regardless of pillar placement or whatever else people say

At the local BMW dealer on Friday I saw a M535i Touring ... I thought it was new but apparently they aren't made anymore ... Was a really nice car. I can only imagine how much $$ it was ... I would have to guess it was around $60-65k.



Was black and beige with 19s. The picture above is apparently a M535iT.

They aren't made anymore? The tailights look the design of the newer updated 5 series.

Edit: Just looked it up, looks like they are still being made, stateside availability, well that's another issue.

Just wait and see what they do with a M5 wagon (if they come out with one). That > E63. Don't get me wrong, the E is hawt, but the 5 is downright gorgeous.

I know of a thread in which you can own any car you want. And what's great about it is that the attitude some people have of owning a great car comes along with it too.

I just saw that movie No Strings Attached last night and i LOVE the Audi wagon Natile Portman was driving. That says a lot, because I hate about 80%-90% of all wagons. But that Audi was sexy!

Natalie Portman is one fine looking woman.

She looked great in "Thor".

Love Subaru wagons. Almost got a 2.5 GT 5mt before picking up the Speed6. If only it had never been in an accident.

HOLY FUCK! That looks amazing.

I never knew the XT had fender flares. I like the front end too. If only they had some Spec B-like variant with the 6MT. The 05-07 Legacy front end is timeless....

I seriously just did a shit ton of reading about dropping an Outback XT like that. I always figured it was the ultimate lesbian mobile and kinda brushed it off.... consider me a butch dyke now.

I had no idea that the Outback XT was the equivalent of a Legacy GT wagon. 2.5T, 5MT.... I used to be really sad about Subaru dropping the LGT wagon, but now I have renewed hope



I've never not-given-a-shit about a car and all of a sudden (metaphorically speaking) developed a raging hard-on for at the drop of a hat like this before. MAN!

I never liked the OBXT either, but I'm no stranger when it comes to driving a dykemobile (I come from driving a Forester XT my first semester of college). But after seeing this car a few months back, I know what my next cars gonna be. Wagon love runs deep. I hate my WRX.

Speaking of lesbomobiles, here's one of my good friend's 99 Forester I shot a few weeks ago.
