Default V wagon spotted.

This was at my dealership, unfortunately it was my last day there.

Yellow calipers are a nice touch IMO.

I ******* love station wagons. Ever since I had a '90 Mercedes 300te back in high school, I've loved them.

That car is so hot.

I could see how the center exhaust could work on the wagon. If they made it AWD, it would add a little more 'utility' to it (snow, etc.), but imagine the price and weight. It's not 'bad', but I would only get it if it were a superultrablowout deal. (like drive it, but not want to pay that much)...curious why they didn't extend the rear side windows more. Guess they don't really want to scream wagon or ?

I simply like the fact that GM had the ***** to put this out there. We don't have to like it. But some people do, and it's nice that they have the option of hitting some twisties after dropping the kids off at soccer practice.

I agree with Twitch. It's nice to see GM put it out there, even though it isn't for me.

i have seen quite a few-even some without dealer plates. One of the benefits of living in the motor city is seeing all the new stuff out and about before other parts of the country.

I have seen more Volts than I can count, everytime without fail, the driver is in the left lane on the "Edsel" doing over 90 mph, trying to prove to the masses that these electric cars can roll the 4 lane with the rest of the cars. Most still have manufactuer plates.....engineers I guess.

I like it, though that view isn't the most complimentary.

The exhaust tips are exactly the same as the V6 wagon. I specifically read that.

Yeah I have to say that I'm not a fan of the tips....I think the center exit exhaust would've looked nice on this one as someone else suggested. To each their own, I'm sure there will be a few pop up but I hardly EVER see a V1 as it is....I can only imagine how rare it will be to see one of these.

Come on, really? Dodge already did something similar four years ago with the Magnum SW, specially when they decided to put the hottest engine (SRT8 model) in their line up.

GM is always BEHIND, following what others do in most of their "moves". Its quite pathetic.

True but the CTS-V wagon is like a whole performance category above the SRT-8 Magnum in acceleration, ride, handling, and luxury. AND it's available with a manual trans.
