    520 Horsepower Station Wagon... Why?

    2006 Hennessey Magnum SRT500









    Sure it looks cool, but in all seriousness who in the hell is going to buy this? Are soccor moms lining up to buy these to get to the grocery store as fast as they fucking can? LOL! Are tuners going to buy these and do them up? Are corvette/viper buyers tired of not having any space for their golf clubs and hockey gear and want something more subdued?

    I just can't figure out what kind of buyer would want this?

    Here is some more information on the ride.

                  In all seriousness, I do see a market for high-power station wagons (in europe atleast). why?

                  - People sort of frown down on expensive cars here, and say audi rs6 is a real sleeper
                  - Station wagon has way way way superior space compared to a sedan
                  - Suvs are fugly and stupid, and only americans drive them.
                  - People don't own 12 cars per household in europe, so wife gets a good shopper that fits the baby carriage and the husband has a kick-ass 'sports'-car that fits his golfclubs.


                  ..now this was from european point of view, I know north-americans love their SUV's.
                  ..and I'm off.

                          But the Audi RS6 and RS4 are sedans not station wagons (well over here they aren't, maybe in Europe they are).

                                  RS6 was ONLY available as a station wagon in europe a few years back, then they added sedan versions too. Not sure about rs4.

                                              it's funny that you mentioned petrol talking about a car that has a 6.1 liter V8, 520HP

                                                  it's a beast - there is always going to be a market for cars such as this. One of the most popular cars ever built in aus is a panel van (sandman).

                                                              I would buy it ... If fact I've been thinking of getting one for some time now ...

                                                              I'm getting tired of the SUV thing and Like the the power and handling of a sports car ... problem is that a sports car will not serve all my needs because of the lack of space. it's a good compromise ... I've seen a few really nice ones Rimmed up /tinted/TV's and sound great .. it's almost like a Hotrod if done right... I just saw one with two tone paint and nice rims and grill ... it looked hot .. if i ever get it I'll let you know how it is ..

                                                                                                                                  As to why? I can only imagine if a dad is stuck buying something the family will fit in, but still wants to feel like a BAMF (sorta).

                                                                                                                                                                              Station wagons provide a better weight distribution in the rear which makes the car go faster than a sedan or coupe. Does it matter? not really, but it helps
