E 63 S Wagon
Hmm. Have to see it with a normal paint job...those tail lights look like they may be a visual nightmare but I'll reserve judgement.

i’m a bit confused about this attempted comparison... it’s apples to oranges. this is an suv. the E63 wagon is... a wagon.

a more accurate comparison might have been to the GLC63?

Really ? So then my e63s wagon would become a "SUV" just as easy as hitting the up button on the dash. Come on, it's a wagon..

Did you not see the pictures of the Mercedes All-Terrain Wagon ?
Then again I call my wagon an SUV at times since it is my "sport utility vehicle"..just lowered.

yes you can surely call it that way also. but this is clearly not a wagon. i'm European, i know what a wagon is. Americans know what a SUV is

brands have spread so much in their offers that distinctions have been diluted.

You out of everyone know its an SUV and our wagons will smoke it on what ever road they want . Paved or unpaved a shooting brake is a wagon however you are pushing the limit by calling a SUV a wagon . Then you might as well call all the Mercedes suv's wagons ? Give our wagons the credit they are do don't lump them in to the general population
Astons have never been very fast except for Valkyrie nice cars but more set up to be gentlemen sports cars

I agree. does are good examples what a wagon is. This Jag is not...

for a SUV, or a traditional Jeep/off-road, you have a vehicle with bigger wheels and bigger height relative to its length, and even a bigger height to the ground. What happens is that manufacturers have created wagons off-road/all-terrain, that have higher height to the ground and a more muscular chassis so that you can get it to more off-road paths, and the traditional Jeep/off-road that has become more city and comfort oriented, with less height to the ground and more luxury built, but still keeps the ratio of height vs length essential the same.

even if this wouldn't be enough they started building different sized SUVs that can get even with less space than a big wagon BUT are still with an upper/higher look/driving position.

When I hit the lift button my wagon can be as high as a so called SUV but it is still a wagon
