I was told by my salesman, Kirk Dawson, at Fletcher Jones in Newport Beach that the E55 Wagon would be available in 2006. - Bob

Impressive

I must admit that I like the wagon better than I liked the four other E55 sedans I have owned. I think the wagon feels more solid, the steering is better weighted (although this could be the new rack) and the build quality is better than my sedans (this also could be because the factory has had more practice by now).

My only problem with my E55 wagon? Damn thing will only smoke the rears for 100 feet, unlike the 200 feet my sedan brothers are getting. Oh well, guess I might get more tire life out of my wonderful Continentals as a result...
