Huh, weird. I don't hate it & have a feeling it will grow on me as far as looks are concerned. Now, if they could just get away from the crappy plastic interior bits...

Believe it or not they made a '79 trans am wagon with gold wing style back/side windows. Kind of cool but all I can say is "only in the '70's" lol.

Looks amazing. I love shooting brakes though. And the interior of the new corvette is supposedly miles ahead of previous generations.

Volvo P-1800ES 40 years ago.

It seems a lot of the new cars look like Mechanic Illustrated "Cars of the Future" circa 1950s.

There are some interesting custom station wagons that never went into production. Here's one of my favorites:

You mean Dodge had the Magnum. They stopped making them after the 2008 model year. With the styling changes in the Charger I wish Dodge would bring back the Magnum since it is basically a Charger wagon.

And I wish they made the Magnum in a Chrysler offering, with the 300 series front clip, like they did in Europe.

Ah. I stopped paying attention in 2005 when we didn't buy one because there was no AWD option at the time.

That's "gull wing."

Gold Wing is a motorcycle.
