Best wagon for $35000-$40000
 
hey guys,
my brother is looking for a wagon/touring for his wife, hes thinking Audi A3 TDI... i'm brain-farting on other options right now... what do you guys think? other options? opinions? I already suggested Subaru but apparently they aren't good enough on gas...

What are your thoughts on a Dodge Ram with a canopy?

edit*

k joking
4 door VW Golf?

Audi Q7 or Q5 ?

if you know some people, you can get a nice clean title in that price range (US vehicle).

i find the bmw and benz just looks hella funny as wagons, but some ppl like it.
volvo is also known for making wagons but not too into their styling, kinda boring imo.

is 40k the limit? just remember you have to pay hst, and on a 40k car its around 5gs.
personally, i'd go for a 09/10 a4 avant. might b able to find a slightly used one for just over 40, otherwise a3 is a great choice too.

haha, I think they are sweet when you need a full size pick-up, not quite as sweet as ford or chevy... plus he's already got a pick-up

she already drives a 09 jetta 2.0 t... just wants something fancy and "new" she got the VW with 12000k on it...:rolleyes: don't get me started on this situation... Im just trying to get all the info I can, since I prefer to drive cars from the late 80's early 90's I don't know enough about the new stuff to give an informed opinion...

donjalapeno 11-08-2010 08:09 PM

jesus.....she basically has a brand new spankin car

no_clue 11-08-2010 08:13 PM

pre-owned bmw 328xi wagon.
decent on gas, warranty covers maintenance. if she wants to get rid of the jetta, a bmw will make her happy.

The_AK 11-08-2010 08:25 PM

Theres a EDM C-Class (or is it an E-Class?) running around Richmond, if she REALLY wants fancy then get one imported from Europe.


Actually,
how about the Mercedes Benz R-Class? Sure its kinda hideous but its what shes asking for, right?
+ its "benz" /cue sarcastic clapping

edit* cool truck

josh t-1 11-08-2010 08:41 PM

so basically used bmw/merc or japanese... maybe a volvo or two...

The_AK 11-08-2010 08:46 PM

...or a dodge with a canopy

You should remind him that wagons are stupid, he'll thank you afterwards.

\/ This post failed by people who drive stupid wagons.

or a saab..... or a volvo of some sort..

Meowjin 11-09-2010 02:31 AM

honestly, it might be my next car. Hopefully the used one`s are priced right.

Energy 11-09-2010 06:07 AM

Yes to the CTS wagon. A4 wagon also looks good. Other wagons just look awkward, like they were afterthoughts (ex. 3 series wagon)

ws6ta 11-09-2010 06:15 AM

I'd go with the A3 tdi

punkwax 11-09-2010 07:59 AM

A3 is nice, but A4 is more bang for the buck. Get a used S line.
