Its OK you're not alone, I've had a thing for wagons for a long time now. I want just about everyone on this list!

M5 Touring E61



And you can't forget the one that started it all:
AMG Hammer wagon



And that Alfa such a good looking car!

I love wagons also , had a 93 olds custom cruiser with impy SS wheels on it , that car with a turtle body 350 got 23 mpg !

I also have a 66 nova wagon project that will be getting an LS in the future .

The CTS-V is one sexy bitch .

I like wagons too and I like a lot that are pictured above but I'll be the first one to go out on a limb and say I like the looks of the older ones haha. Olds vista cruiser, a 70+ Buick wagon, whichever one had the front end that looked like a skylark/gs. I've heard they've got great weight transfer for racing haha especially with a 455

I am glad to see this following is small. I am actually amazed more then the op is into these things.

I could go for an old nomad but there are a million cars i would still take before that.

I'm a wagon guy too.

I have a soft spot for 123 & 124 benzos, and the ultimate IMO E55 AMG wag. I believe bmw did an m5 wagon also

Really looking for a solid donor to do an LS swap into

I LOVE wagons, infatuated with them really. Love the g-body and nova wagons.

My fav is the "V" though, GM nailed the styling IMO, defiantly on my want list.

Can't really beat a Fairmont wagon either, especially with a turbo LS swap.
