I don't know if they still have it but Honda in Japan never stopped making the Accord wagon, and a few years back had a "Type R" version which had pretty decent specs (as far as Accords go). Way more powerful than this Acura "sport wagon". They seem to like wagons in general a whole lot more overseas, though most of them are compacts. I'll take my full size wagons though, they can't be beat!

Yeah...I like the commercials...you can see those front wheels spinning and spinning at the end of the turn. Lol.
But, I think wagons will come back to the US again too. Our crossovers are getting smaller and shorter through the years...some of them are basically a jacked wagon.

We came SO close to getting a V8 rear drive Pontiac wagon again.
I'd have bought one....and put Safari emblems on it.

The problem is when I think wagon, I immediately think "I can put plywood in that" Until someone makes a wagon that can match ours in capacity, no thanks.

They are all just hatch backs, even the Caddy.... a sweet car, but it's no wagon.
