Very nice, quite a difference going from an E92 to an F31. Curious what made you want to switch and pick the F31 also.

Clean E92! Like the wheels.

I switched because of a couple of reasons.

One. I'm really big in to cycling. In the summer, I'm racing almost every weekend and the wagon is better on gas and has more room.

Two: I got a different play car.

Welcome to the club! Easily the best wagon for the money in the US.

Beautiful ride man!

Congrats, cool looking car. Your pics are not 'silly', they look great
I love wagons and wished there were more of them available in the US. Your toy car is a very good choice too. I have put thoughts in getting a 996 Turbo for the track and spirited drives too but most cars I have seen are tiptronic.

Keep looking! 6-speeds are out there and are worth the wait!

Suv / cuv don't do anything for me. I'm not a fan of the style and I just plan love wagons. In fact, I would venture that many cuvs may be similarly sized to the 328, but with a jacked up suspension.

Same here. I played around with idea of an SQ5 lowered on springs for a bit when we were looking around, particularly based on the photos of them from the Audi forums, but I just couldn't do it. Even thought about a Macan, but I kept getting second thoughts. I just can't stand SUV's or their ilk. Wagons are the absolute tits.
