Holy shit....after reading all this, my God. Slow Kyle, Bone, and ALMOST everyone here have got it right on this one. Avant's fucking rule!! A) They're 10x more sexy than a sedan, B) That particular avant will spank...well...ALL OF YOU, C) All the haters are just upset because they can't afford the sticker, D) Better weight distribution, and E) Yeah I can haul the family dog around in it...shit I'll pile me, the little wife, two kids, dog, and the rear end full of groceries, and I'll still walk anything out there.

"Nice car, what's the sticker on one of those?"
"More than you can afford, station wagon boy, it's a Porche."
At the next light after having to wait a good 10 seconds for the Porche to catch up.
"Nice car, it just got beat by the family cruiser."

Shit if I had that kinda money, I'd be pimpin' that beast everywhere!
