Can this be called a wagon?? It's a sedan that has had the hatchback rear grafted on...

Not a wagon per se, but it's definitely intriguing.

My story with station wagons, first off when I was a young boy I was playing with my hot wheels in the back of one of these when my mother was t-boned by a mountain bell truck doing about 50mph, yeesh the engine block cracked in 1/2 and parts on the ground.

My brother in law souped up one of these with a 455 in it and is the car I used to obtain my car drivers license.

My mother gave me her old one of these when I was 16, I used it when I didn't feel like riding the kz900 to school.

And that is my extent of wagons, I remember laughing at the fact my brother in laws cruiser was not as large as his mates charger I ran that 510 into the ground following a mate in a 4x4 through some back fields jumping it until I shot a rod. amazingly enough it still ran just fine on three cylinders I only had to feed it oil non stop. Drove it about a year that way

It's weird how some cars' rear wheels lose their centering when lowered. I think it's the seventh gen Accord that does that as well. So sad.

That 510 though. I'd almost kill to have one of those.

That whole thing looks very ill-fitting. The taillights don't line up and the bumper doesn't look much better.

At least it made a magazine, right?

 

[CyborgGT]

...It didn't. Just a random snap in some show coverage.

The license plate is fitted just as good as that as well

The closest thing you can get to a Commodore wagon.

I'm sure most people on here follow SH by now, but we may as well get this one in here...

If that counts as a wagon, I guess this does too.

 

[ProjectWHaT]

They're both shooting brakes.

 

[CyborgGT]

Shooting brake is just the term for a two-door wagon, is it not? As opposed to just being a hatchback?

Shooting brakes have a sportier, aerodynamic look such as the FF. Its roofline will slope downwards. In comparison, hatchbacks have large trunk space and are larger in general, such as the Golf and Fiesta.

 

[CyborgGT]

Look at the 86 "shooting brake" roof line, then read your description again. Obvious, impractically slopey slope. I'm not seeing any lack of sportiness, whether you want to call it a wagon or not. Next to no slope, however, on the breadvan. Also, OP says shooting brakes are okay.

Anyway...

Holy moly, sir.

I don't think it would have the same effect if they weren't all white. That is a beautiful sight.

This year's edition of a local Volvo 940 estate meeting.

 

[CyborgGT]

Reminds me of Paul Newman's supercharged Ford 5.0 960. I'm not one to get excited about celebrities, but there's a guy I would have loved to meet and talk cars with.

^ Good read, if you have the time

 

[TexRex]

Another Ford-powered Paul Newman creation that probably doesn't belong here because it's not a wagon, but at least it's a 'wagen.

Oh I miss my Primera.

Those headlight eyebrows are not exactly what I like, but damn I like exactly this type of car. Link to my 626 in my signature.

What engine did it have?

 

[syntex123]

Not a big fan of the 626 myself, but it's cute! @ImmalovemaGTR

The engine in my Prim was a QG18DE, 118HP if I'm not mistaking. It was completely stock except for the paintjob and wheels. Still, loved the hell out of that car. Too bad of my "friend" smashed it. Still owes me money.
I guess I'll do more to my new car, when lowered it would look more like a wagon than a SUV, but I'm happy with that.
