Believe it or not, my last vehicle before my first (and only, so far) brand new Saab (an '82 900) was an AMC Pacer wagon. I couldn't afford a Volvo, so the Pacer wagon was the "next best" thing I could find. It had an enormous hatch, and pretty good visibility all around. Despite the guffaws from my friends, I actually kinda liked the way it looked.
That car was constantly in need of repair, though, and had more rattles and clunks (which the dealer could never seem to identify or fix) than a roller coaster. It rusted out pretty badly in the wheel wells during the four or so years I owned it. I sold it for four times what it was worth on a trade (thanks to the Saab salesman's advice) before I bought the 900.
