    What are the odds... my e63 wagon and another parked next to each other at the airport this morning.

    (Mine was much cooler for the record. ;) )

    No one is trying to fool you. Those photo's are from Europe where there's no Buick, and the article spells out the Opel/Buick model relationship.

    Chill.

    Supposed to be funny. We all know they are Opels. The tape is funny, though.

    (and there shouldn't be an apostrophe in photos.)

    Already are.

    The question is, if they'll bring the wagon to the US.
    Wagons haven't sold well recently in the US, so...

    Well I want a wagon but I'm from Germany and have a medically certified allergy against Opel cars. I'm not gonna buy one. I'm just hoping this SUV craze cools down a bit and people see the value in Euro-trash wagons.

    There is hope that a Panamera wagon is coming, so... :)

    Got a wagon after years in a p-up truck. love this E350. looks sharp its quick and its a normally aspirated V6. The newer 4 cyl turbos E350 are not as good imho

    A common allergy there.

    I remember back in the 80's, when GM imported Opels to the US... sold at Buick dealers.

    Opels are essentially cheap knockoffs of VWs. Ugh.

    GM can build Opels with black tape on the insignia here and call them Buicks,

    and can build Chevy Bolts (Daewoo) with black tape on the bowtie and call them Opels.

    Easy. :)

    i'm a huge wagon fan. it's interesting to me that the US used to be known for our large, cross country, 'queen family truckster' type wagons, yet now we pretty much make nothing but utes. i wish we still made wagons - i can't stand all these poorly driven huge-utes we have here. now, the euro markets have the great estates.

    here's the money shot of my '05 V70R wagon. love this thing.
