211 E55 Wagon

Would this not be the ultimate sleeper? They seem to sell quite a few of these in Europe. With all of the cross-over vehicles in the US it seems that people may be intrested in this car.

What do you all think of a 500HP wagon? Doesn't Audi make a High HP variant as well? Can you imagine the look on peoples faces after you dust off the Z06......

Speaking of Hi Performance wagons. This Rear Drive baby is coming next year. The price is supposed to be around $30k for 3.5L 250HP V6 of course. Make mine 5.7L Hemi, 345HP and AWD. The supercharged 430HP SRT-8 concept version may not make production.

You prefer the E55 wagon - Who wouldn't? But for half the price and 345 or 430 HP with RWD or AWD and W211 Chassis and Suspension bits that Magnum should be a great deal.

As far as looks is concern. The E-Class wagon will really not be more noticeable and that Magnum will turn more heads and get more stares than an mundane E-Class wagon when it hit the streets. Dodge has an instant winner coming.

For those that are into custom and show cars. I predict the Dodge Magnum will be the most highly sought tuned custom ride on the show car scene with plenty of low cost $5k superchargers coming out.

Do you like SUV's? They are all wagons.

I would rather have the power, handling and cornering ability of those wagons over a SUV anyday. SUV/Truck handling sucks.
