    I was scrolling through some old pics and came across this accord wagon we saw in slovenia 2 years ago. I only got one photo so I'm supplementing with a few off the web. I kind like the looks of it but feel like the front end leaves something to be desired. The one I saw had the 2.2l diesel, and apparently they only came with either a 5 or 6 speed manual trans.

    We’ve got two RS6 Avants now at the private school i work at. At least three E63AMG’s as well. The statement holds.

    A guy who lives up the road past the school has an RS6 Avant. Car is filthy from his driveway and he rallies it around pretty well

    She could drive anything. But it’s a Jaguar wagon.
    That they won’t bring to the US.
    I smell a conspiracy here. We need more wagons!

    PS. Does that qualify as a shooting brake?

    Edit. No. Per wiki a brake can only have two doors.

    In Canada we got the Acura TSX wagon, it’s not bad at all.

    Canada never actually got the TSX wagon, it was US only. Which is absurd, I'd likely have bought one.

    And every TSX wagon sold in the US was front wheel drive with an automatic transmission.

    I remember when Acura came onto the scene it billed itself as a drivers car kinda manufacturer, where in the hell did they go wrong?

    What you correctly describe is no better than a cute Ute.

    Whoa whoa whoa. An actual wagon is now not good enough to be a wagon? Moving the goalposts yeah? Sounds like something a Volvo owner might do? Lol

    It is a wagon and because the market wanted cute utes they didn't sell many (10,000) compared to the RDX (200,000 plus in same time frame)

    Did acura purposely drop a dud on the market or did they try to get a few people into the brand with an existing model with a new badge (accord wagon)?

    Either way it will be honored as a modern wagon before they died.

    Oh it’s every bit a wagon. I’m just wondering where Acura lost its way as a car manufacturer.

    The high water mark for Honda/Acura was the early 2000s. Honda knows it and basically admits it in their recent ad campaigns with the third gen Integra and first gen NSX. The new TLX Type S looks promising so there is hope. AWD and around 350 hp. No wagon option, though.

    165k on the previous one with less than $2k/year of maintenance, timing chain tensioners still good. I beat the shit out of our cars. Slathered with mud halfway up the doors driving back and forth between Silverton and Silverton Mountain.

    Oh, they're well paid.

    The sound on turning the key is glorious.

    Wondering if Audi dropped a dud with the new A6 Allroad priced the same as the new Q8. Both can be bought for $60ish and honestly the Q8 looks a hella lot nicer IMO and I am not a SUV guy.

    I've got both on my street and while I admit the Q8 looks pretty nice, the A6allroad looks way better, it has a presence about it; wide and low. Honestly, I don't even understand where the Q8 slots in their lineup. The Q7 is bigger?

    Saw my first e400 allroady type Merc in the wild yesterday. It looks really good. Better than the non cladded version I think.
