if you have a sedan would you trade it for a wagon
and vice versa for the wagon guys
i know i would, yeah its heavier but the cargo space and being able to tell the cop "come on its a station wagon" makes me have some buyers remorse

HEHE I have a Wagon and I would not trade it in for a Sedan. I love the vesitility and the slepper affect that a wagon has. its only 80-180lb (depends what you read) difference in weight and the only trade off as far as looks if that the Flares are gone and u have a big ***.
to each his/her own but I love hatchbacks :banana:

~Wagon~
I love the Sedan, but it is a small car & the rear seats don't fold down.
Although the wagon is small, I can do more with it. I just bought it in September. One of my friends has a cabin in Vermont and I hauled a bunch of fire wood and other gear up. Another example was this past Christmas. One of my gifts was about 6 feet long. It was easy to get that gift and the others in and out of my car.
With the money I saved purchasing the wagon vs the sedan I bought a short throw shifter, turbo gauge, alarm & auto dimming mirror.
I think the insurance is less as well.

I love my sedan, and the fender flares rule, but sometimes I long for a wagon. I would love to have a car I could actually sleep in, or a nice place to sit if I'm out somewhere (tailgate) or carry my bike back there.
But I don't regret getting my sedan at all.

The grass is always greener on the other side... i think how a wagon would be cool/practical sometimes. If i had an STi i'd want an EVO and visa versa. he same thing applies for everything i do...
Im never satisfied anymore and am trying to teach myself to deal with my actions for EVERYTHING. there's always the question of "what if" in the back of my mind.

I think if I knew how little the cargo space was in the sedan, I would have bought a wagon. It's a pain in the **** to put all of the babies stuff in the sedan. Carriage is a pain to put in the trunk too. I could also use the cheaper insurance. If I knew that the wagon was cheaper for insurance, I would have gotten one no doubt.

Sedan all the way~
but the 03/4 JDM WRX Wagon looks pretty good, with the rally style antena, i think the USDM Sedan and wagon should feature this as well

Car Info: currently own a modded 97' maxima. in the process of owning a modded 2k2 wrx
when i had my maxima i wanted a sedan. I couldnt afford a wrx yet, so i bought an integra GS-R to drive for a while. I love the hatch and the rear folding seats. its so much better for everyday stuff. Also, i love the rear windshield whipers. I dont know anymore, sedan looks better by far, but i dont know if thats worth the practicality of the wagon. what is the 1/4 mile and handling difference. assuming your hard on the launch, sedan can get 14.1-14.3 and wagon is only behind by about 2tenths right?
