Default Psychology of high performance Wagon drivers

I was on the 10 in a nogaro 05 s4 and a black s4 b6 wagon began flirting with me.
A red A4 joined in later b6 as well,

But my question, which some may have trouble understanding, is what type of person enjoys high performance wagon?
I have no problem with them, but I think its quite funny actually,
to me it looks a bit awkward, and asthetically I really see no appeal to a wagon.
A high performance wagon>? It doesnt even seem to have that big of an advantage on trunk space either?
and it loooks like a caterpillar, so clearly my amusement is multiplied when theres a high performance wagon, especially a furious one like the one Imet, and I think he had a full milltek....So someone tell me whats appealing about a wagon, I am curious

If you need the utility of a wagon and still want want a high performance vehicle you get an Avant.

I actually think the Audi wagons look hot. They're the only wagon that does (modern wagon anyway, I would like an old Nomad). If I were in the position, I might floss an Avant provided I could shave the roof rails, slam it, toss on some somewhat bling 19s, and make a sick little Cali cruiser out of it.

On the other side of the spectrum, my neighbor trains police attack dogs, and they have the large metal grate blocking off the back of their All-Road. That wouldn't work as well with the sedan, so perhaps it's largely lifestyle requirements that precipitate wagon purchases.

Don't know what it is but I love the Avant body more and more every day. I don't care if people think it looks like your parents old station wagon.

I have the wagon and love it. I can toss my snowboard, camping gear and my 90 pound pooch in the back. So it has more room on the inside and still has the ***** to handle the windy mountain passes with ease.

Wagon drivers are INSANE!!!!!

The guy from last month that "tapped" into me, he drove an avant.

I also know a few other guys that drive avants...... they all are crazy, seriously. I can think of one guy on here in particular that is def questionable, without even mentioning his name, "m sure a lot of you know who I mean.

But....... i'd like one so I could throw my dog and my bf's ferret in the back and not have to worry about them jumping on the leather.

You know though, Only REAL men can get away with driving an Avant.

I love my avant, plenty of space, for larger items vertiacally and because of the back seats folding down, it gives me a massive same sized cargo well.

I have used a few sedans, and the avant > sedan space wise by quite a bit. head clearence in the back is more even to, so someone my size doesnt smack there head in the back.

Not only that, you cant shove a dog in teh trunk, but you can let puppah just jump up in the hatch of the wagon.

Did I mention the wagons are bad ***? Thats right, there is nothing cooler than an Audi Avant. Besides fold the back seats down and what was a versital daily driver/pleasure to drive, is now a pleasure to **** in.

not to mention... look how much easier it is to get to your ****

Personally i like the way the avants handle. It seems like they are just a little looser in spirited driving.

I think I am satisfied.
I thought it was funny how many mentioned dogs!
and that assassins kit was interesting as well.
