    Nice video, its good to see how that car performs on the track. Pretty amazing in my opinion for a wagon.

    Sweet... but if Caddy thinks they are going to find Wagon buyers in the high end performance market in this country they should take a lesson from their German rivals. You don't see them bringing M5 & E63 estate's stateside... (Ok so I guess you can technically buy an E63 estate now days and an RS6 Avant) but honestly how big is that niche?

    ^ it isn't a huge market for sure. I don't think normal wagons are a big market to begin with but if they can produce it... why not? They don't need to make money on that V model since they already did all the testing and research on the sedan...

    It's just a friendly slap in the face to the Germans.... cheaper and faster.

    Keep in mind they also sell the non-V version of the wagon.

    Granted the market aint going to be huge, but Jah bless them for doing it. Performance Wagons? Alllllllllllll over it.

    While most don't like performance wagons, I love them. Send me a new S4 avant please.

    selling a hi-performance wagon isnt the issue, its shipping such a low volume vehicle here and trying to make money on it. the V is made here and most likely wont be shipped anywhere out of the country by GM.

    in Germany you can buy wagon versions of the c63, e63, rs6, rs4, m5, etc. just hard to make any money one it by shipping it across the world.
