Seriously 95% of my life in San Luis Obispo fit in the back. If I had cross bars and a roof basket or box I could have fit everything on my own. Thankfully one of my buddies with a wagon too is helping grab the other 5% and then we can ditch the Audi in Long Beach and I can get the Corvette.

Now if only this was a 2010 RS6 Avant instead of a 2004 A6 3.0 Avant Quattro

C6 RS6 Avant: Power: 580 hp @ 6250 rpm. Torque: 479 lb-ft @ 1500 rpm

C5 A6 Avant Q: Power: 220 hp @ 6300 rpm. Torque: 221 lb-ft @ 3200 rpm

!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! That is a LOT of car for the price, especially when you consider msrp started at 105,550 €.

The best color

My prefered black leather and alcantra

TWIN TURBO V10!!!!

The perfect “dad mobile”. I mean the Avant I have is so sudate looking and really this is too, but with that engine makes it the perfect sleeper.Even more so after the APR tune (requiring no upgrades) making 665 hp and 716 tq. Fucking damn. Or this MTM model I found making 740hp

Nice! 10/10 that box had a CVT or short block in it before it became a moving box.

Incorrect! Those come in massive black plastic housings that the cors get sent back in. These boxes most likely had head gasket and short block replacement parts.

Almost got all of my non-furniture stuff in my S60 when I left Houston. I did have to get rid of a few things, and mail some others. If I had had an V70, I probably could have fit it all (especially with a roof box), but I would have been seriously overweight (I’m pretty sure I already was, and I don’t think the V70 suspension  is rated any higher than the S60).

Very nice! That is quite the packing job. Thankfully I have no furniture to move

I love wagons, but the flipside is this:

My two seater has enough space for 99.5% of trips including nights away for two. On the rare occasion that I’m moving house, I’ll need a truck anyway, so the car becomes moot.

2 seater life suits me

I agree 2 seater life is great! I have my Corvette and my Austin Healey, but the wagon is perfect for DD and running super under the radar.
