Wagon Stoke

[BmillsSkier]

That shit website isn't dead yet? I'm amazed.

It really has become almost unbearable to peruse with all the popups, floating ads, images that refuse to load and no new content for days. That said, doesn't stop me from checking in every so often.

Sounds like being addicted to soda pop. Garbage but a few sips are tasty.

[BmillsSkier]

Yeah, kinda like that. But since they can't fill their own page with their own free stories for us to read they cross-post a bunch of other garbage from their fifteen other sister sites that help to further jam up the works, so it's like grabbing that sweet, sweet sip of Coca-Cola but having to filter out grains of sand that float into your mouth at the same time.

That S4 wagon is blowing up

Again, sweet wagon. But crack pipe all day long at $15k.

Clean ones with the V6 TT go for 10k to 12k, I wouldn't be surprised if this goes for asking. All issues addressed and manual V8. Too much to you, worth it for the collector/enthusiast

I'm in at Crack Pipe too, but man it's a sweet ride and that engine so so pretty to look at.

I'd also prefer the OEM wheels, but those aftermarket ones aren't bad.

Oh, I'm both and it's still too much money. I'd be all over it at 10 or 12k.

Agreed. It always does crack me up with the car sales for ze best German whips how they always show off the Bible-thick stack of maintenance records like it's a good thing. Hey sellers, uhhhh, I don't think that's normal for the rest of us to have THAT much work done on our cars, even when kept in top spec.

Did anyone check out that new Genesis wagon that the videos of popped up yesterday?

I had the same thought as I was penning the "for sale" ad for mine a few years ago (I didnt sell and *knocks on a General Sherman sized piece of wood* have had no real issues since but really dont drive it much). Started listing the countless things I had done to it as if that was some sort of selling point. Then again, anyone who is willing to buy a now 16 year old german automobile is usually delusional enough to think that it has finally been updated to the point of working order.

Sunk cost fallacy + torque smiles = old german automobile ownership

Has anyone bought a 2020 or 21 Outback yet? Curious about the complete overhaul. Especially interior comfort.

[liv2ski]

When will those cars ever get a normal Asian 8 speed AT and dump the CVT shite. With a 6 cylinder engine I would consider it.

[uglymoney]

I watched Warren Miller documentary on Prime last night and there were quite a few shots of the different wagons he used in the film. Good stuff.

Thanks for posting this. Watched that last night. Really enjoyed it.

Chris Harris thrashes the new RS6 Avant on BBC Top Gear tonight.

Nothing fixes the gouging of cylinder walls on those S4.

Welp, there goes the Jag XF and XE Sportbrakes. 2020 just keeps on giving.

WTF - When did the Shootingbrake become the Sportbrake? Why may be the better question.

Why question it? Can't we just be happy it exists, even if we can't get it North America?

I wet myself.
E39 m5 is so much fun.
A wagon version is dreamy

When we were wagon shopping recently, I didn't even bother to test the drive the new Outback because of the CVT. With autos shifting faster and becoming less boring, a V6 Outback with a DSG or quick shifting 8 speed would make it more enticing.

'Member when Subaru made fast, three pedal turbo Outbacks? I 'member.

Needs a taillight swap

To the 08/09, clear vs amber? Meh, might look a little better but I get tired diddling in cosmetics.

Had the motor out couple weeks ago... clutch, rear main, catless uppipe, yanked oil line screens, timing, ps pump, valve cover seals. Thing is driving well, stoked.
