If you are looking for a wagon flavor to it, a holy grail is a 2004 RS6 Avant, which were never sold in the US but are legal for import.

R63? Just hope the engine doesn't blow up.
If you already have a diehard sports car, what are you looking to use the new car for? Hauling family? commuting etc.

How about an ML63 ? I absolutely love this thing... who knew an SUV with way to much power could be so much fun ?

Correction: 2003, not 2004. There are still a few hoops to jump through, but here you go!

‘17 Carrera GTS, ‘16 E63 Estate, 1965 Shelby Cobra and a few more
I struggle with this question as well. In my case, I’m just not gravitating to the W213 version despite it being a better car in every dimension (but the stick on the column is a travesty, as bad as if Porsche removed the key switch from the left side of the column).
My 2016 E63 wagon is my wife’s car and after years of driving Range Rovers she has declared herself done with SUVs. This boxes me in a bit but there are options. The Panamera shooting brake is a really amazing car and just as rare, I think they have sold fewer than 200 of them. These cars, supercar wagons, are indeed rare but not for the reason that most people here think... companies would be happy to build more of them but the market is incredibly niche. It turns out that the number of people who want these cars each year is actually just in the hundreds.
Jaguar has a sportbrake version of the XF but their top performance tier stops at an S, they have yet to announce an RS version. Having said that, I had a really bad experience with an XF-RS that resulted in Jaguar buying the car back after just a month. I’d buy another Range Rover but we will be Jaguar free from here on out despite them being the same company.
It is really disappointing that Audi refuses to offer the RS6 Avant in the US.
