Well, then the Passat wagon or Saab 9^3 wagon would be the car to get. Of course you will have to wait for the '03 models to get the 9^3 wagon which Saab is giving us instead of the 5 dr because their market analysis determined that a Wagon is what WE want. Of course, it is not what I want, but that is another perspective. In the current world of automotive styling, the focus group and market analysis drives everything.
