You're probably right but wagons can be cool now.
No need to convince me, I love my v60
Anything's cool I'm the 100k plus grouping...
Can't really claim better efficiency at that point
Still more efficient than the same thing in boxy SUV form.
I was talking to someone last year and doing 100mph in a 5.0 V8 Mustang he was getting better mpg than 70mph in a Kia Soul (about 25). Make an aerodynamic wagon and you're golden.
The Mercedes looks tolerable, although it wouldn't be the car I would choose for that price. The Audi is downright hideous. I would rather pay half as much to get both a Miata for when I want to have fun and a truck for when I need the cargo space.
