Just built 335i and 535i M-Sport Touring models on the BMW UK website. 335i was $88k and 535i was $102k 
It's amazing how many options you can equip on the European models. They also have the 4-series GT and the i8 to configure.

But as I mentioned in the 3-Series thread they actually pay less than we do if you take off the VAT and take the exchange rate into account.

Volvo is looking to get back to 100,000 units a year so their dealer network is profitable.
It may make them a bit aggressive on end of year models. I'll have to keep my eye out after the V60 gets released. There may be a point where it becomes a compelling purchase

Holy.. the Allroad looks extra 
due to the wide fenders especially when paint matched.

That Allroad just happens to be one of those cars/pictures that I can't stop looking at. Love those flares.

Come on. Allroad is certainly more important than a degree.
And if it comes with 3.0T, it would be S4 Allroad and about $7-10k more expensive.
Do it man. DO IT.

I really would love to get one. I still might. But like you said, autos are boring and as much as I love the Allroad I like driving the Focus ST under boost with a manual more I think. Stupid Audi.

I like it generally but not sure if I like the wheels. Still, would not kick it outta bed if it jumped in.

Something about the size throwing off the proportions . . .Not a wagon but sure, why not? Who turns down a Ferrari? (or is it a Jag?)

I have never been a fan of shooting brakes. Everyone here knows the massive hard-on I have for the F-Type but no, no... that just doesn't work for me 
A simple coupe's profile is just sexier. An F-Type "hatchback" reminds me of one of those chop top classic cars.

It's more practical in some ways than the Coupe and it's a good looking Shooting Brake.
Would I buy it? Yeah, I probably would. It's likely only a 2-seater with a flat floor but I'd definitely consider it. It's very good looking.

So, guys...shooting brakes are just 2-door wagons, right?

Aston Martin's Vantage Shooting Brake...not my fave, but interesting.
I think my gripe is the rear -- how it arches upwards sorta. It's a bit funky. But, if done right, it would be quite a looker?

It had potential. But look at the difference between the Jag and Aston. The single pane of glass makes the Jag look like a shooting brake. The Aston looks like they forgot a door.
