Review: Is the BMW 3-series wagon all that?

An all-wheel-drive European sports wagon is the perfect car for a fashionable young man. A night on the town, a month of resort-hopping in the Canadian Rockies, it matters not. This is the sort of car you should own before you are 30, along with an Andiamo suitcase, a great set of cookware and a tailored tux. Gentlemen do not rent clothes.

It's important to read cars as women read them, as the material adjuncts of a man's inner life. Sports cars are needy, trucks are desperate, boxy crossovers and active-lifestyle SUVs scream "focus-group patsy" — women sense these things with an atavism that is a marvel to behold.

A sports wagon, by contrast, conveys an effortless and consolidated sense of self, a worldliness and maturity. You are more than just available; you're eligible.

agreed, I don't know any women that are gonna be impressed by a wagon. To me it screams......DORK, or old man, one of the two.

What kind of non-sense is this! I've never read an article that is more senseless, more subjective and opinionated as this.
