Lately I’ve found myself drooling over some cars I think would be fun to DD. I currently have a ‘13 VW Golf R (stock) but it’s just become, meh. The kid at the coffee shop this morning was drooling over it and I seriously said its for sale but even at hipster coffee prices he couldn’t afford it.
I want a wagon!!! And diesel and maybe brown but definitely manuel! I saw an Audi A4 Avant today and thought “mmmm” but then it has no powers... Of course APR but ugh, spend $29-33k+ used, then add another $1k+ for the power I really want.
Help me Oppo, you’re my only wagon-hope.

This is stepping way out, but could be a fun unique DD. A Juke NISMO RS. If you opt for the FWD you get: a close ratio 6spd manual, mechanical LSD, the suspension is not FiST good but well tuned, and the 1.6L Dig-T is a very potent engine that takes to tuning well.

The Autotrader app has been my latest obsession. Trying to rationalize a Porsche 997 as a daily driver...

You can pick up 2014's for around $20,000. The seats are no joke, getting in them is very awkward but they hold you in place very well. Nissan had balls to take a niche market thing and try to make a hot hatch with it.

Yeah, I probably would hate to own one because of the awful visibility but I really have a thing for them. Maybe I should see if there's one I could test drive in town.

The visibility is not as bad as you think, it is no worse then most new cars. Mine has a back up camera and it is a life saver for judging distance.

Nope I already hate it.
If it needs a camera, I don’t wanna drive it.
And trust me - I hate being behind the wheel of about 95% of cars you can buy nowadays.

997 + poorly butchered camper shell transplanted to where the rear hatch goes = wagon :)

Find a used Volvo V70R. CarMax won’t carry them (too old), but very fun, plus SPACEBALL MANUAL!
Ford needs to bring us FiST & FoST, and Fusion wagons, dammit.
