Yeah! Great points...and now that you mention it, the Aston does look like it is missing a set of doors. More appropriate as a 4-door wagon instead of a SB.

Here's another interesting Shooting Brake...done by Audi for the TT. I think the rear is fantastic...but, that front could be better.

I know Audi is calling this a shooting brake but that is marketing. This is no more a SB than a two door Golf.

To me, a SB is a two door wagon. Like the F-Type. Well more like a coupe based wagon. I guess I know one when I see one. That TT isn't it.

Sort of looks like a Scirocco

charliemike

Exactly. A TT Scirocco. I don't think this makes it a Shooting Brake.

kurtatx

Hate the rings on the hood. That's just me.

charliemike

I think Audi needs to seriously do something with the next TT. I do not like their design language on the front end anymore.

Chief F1 Fan

Wiki and a few other sites say a shooting brake can be a 3 or 5 door car. I did not know that and thought they were more like the FF or the Jag on the previous page.

charliemike

Interesting. I wouldn't call a five door a SB. I'd call it a wagon/estate car.

Chief F1 Fan

The pic you posted of the old time shooting brake had 5 doors (suicide rear doors) but yes, I would not presently call my 530xi T a "shooting brake." That would just be stupid.

Such a nice-looking wagon. How could more Americans not buy this?

that was choice #2 when I bought mine. I had an AMG E350 sport wagon spotted in Denver, was going to fly out and drive it home. I agree, I'm surprised we don't see more on the road.

Always been a fan of the E wagon. A little less with the W210 (Aside from the E55, not a fan of the front end styling).

I wouldn't mind finding a nice W123 300TD
My first car was a W123 240D, so I'm a little partial to them

I finally saw an Audi Allroad on the road today. It doesn't sit as high as I thought it did. It looks like a normal (that is, good-looking), Audi wagon.

But I still want an RS4 Avant.

Dumb Americans and their wagon-hating.

Ooo...what a pair...

"This vehicle is not for everyone. It is for someone looking for something very unique. Something beyond special. The previous and only owner, an 80 year old woman, traded this car in on a 2014 model. She has found what is special about these AMG wagons, and has had them since the first introduction of the 2006 E55 AMG Wagon. Mercedes Benz is the only brand brave enough to bring these Hammer Wagons to the USA, and we are sure glad that they did!"

Lmao... So they use that line for super wagons too???

RS6 Avant looks way better

These new wide-mouth bass MB front ends haven't quite grown on me yet. This, coming from a guy who owned a catfish front-end car

^ didn't know you had an infinity too

That E63 is done just right.

I love the v60 polestar.....or i would be super content with a v60 t6 polestared

RPhilMan1

It really is nice. But what is going on with that patch in the bottom middle of the grille?

RS6.

Wow.

Mr Marco

Now this is a proper wagon, something that was build to haul...people.

neuronbob

Probably an adaptive cruise control of collision mitigating system. The 2G RL had a similar extra shield when one purchased the CMBS model.

Yumcha

We're talking about this Volvo Polestar, right?

charliemike

I do too. Not a huge fan of the paint but the car itself. Dayum.

charliemike

Yup. I wish I had the monies. Perfect size, AWD, plenty of torques.

FYI on a custom wagon (BMW 3-Series): https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...1#post14888051


Not a fan of the stickers but overall, I think it is pretty good.

Wow... yes, it's an awesome car.. but for 120k? I don't know.

00TL-P3.2

Love the new AMG E-wagen!
Cost a little less than my grandmother's '14 S550 & likely gives many more smiles per gallon/mile.
Only thing I could do without on it is the red calipers.

charliemike

If I had the money, I would pay $120k for a RS6 Avant without hesitation.

It'd be here in limited numbers and a RS7 starts at $105k. I'd be willing to pay a premium for the limited quantity of the RS6 Avant.

So, with that said, I don't think a E63 S Wagon is outrageous at $120k.

@ Merc wagon...

That is awesome, Eddie. Wow.

Eddie, somehow legally import a RS6 Avant and then we'll talk

Yumcha

Screw that. How about he just import the A4 Avant to start with?
