PS: Good luck passing me in 3-12" of snow on some mountain passes, which is where I primarily drive it.

What the fuck is wrong with me? Half this country is driving fuel sucking pieces of shit known as SUVs without ANY ACTUAL USE FOR THEM. They buy them based on stigma, or what their parents drove, and they are comfortable trading safety, efficiency, visibility, handling, acceleration for off road capabilities they…

95 S6 Avant. Many Volvo V70R wagons too.

Yeah, I guess, but those are basically supercars that nobody had access to, so I still don't understand the reverence.

idk, I don't really like most of them. This one though, is amazing. Legendary WRC battle tested drivetrain. Heated everything. Unstoppable in poor weather.

When well an automaker make a performance oriented minivan? Chrysler's new Pentstar v6 seems pefect, just make it RWD or AWD, sport springs, premium brakes, swaybars, and nice seats in the front with a nice leather wheel and shifter. Manual transmission would be amazing also! i would rock the fucking SHIT out of…

I only sold it because the body was rusting apart and I hated the transmission.

I like the white ones better.

Idk. I have a 95 S6 wagon, and I do everything with it. Haul huge amounts of stuff, tow my boat, whatev. And 300hp stickshift with factory recaros = wonderful. :)

Full size wagon > your poser mobile.

I sold my SVX at 200k. Ran fine. Shifted perfect. I drained and filled my tranny at every other oil change tho.

With no stereo. no heat. no lights.

Cuz that is relevant.

To be fair, he probably thought the water was only 6" deep or so. If I was in an SUV, I would have blasted through that part as well.

It was as awesome as the transmission was horrible. I hated my 4EAT, even if it was reliable. It just never seemed to shit when I wanted it to. I hate automatics in general though.

K, audi's inline 5s were indeed glorious... but ... benz inline sixes? Really? Off the top of my head, I can't think of any worth remembering. Maybe there were some really nice AMG verisons, but most benzes that had inline sixes were extremely boring.

Oh man, I loved that engine so. I miss my EG33.

lol @ xterra. BUT IT HAS A MED KIT! EXTREEEEMMMEE!

What is an outrageous front mount grill? Do you mean intercooler? Because no offense, based on your article and "front mount grill", it sounds like you're completely clueless, and maybe you shouldn't be making fun of anybody there, considering they probably know way more than you.
