Default Cant decide between new legacy wagon or sedan!

im 50/50 between the new legacy gt limited wagon or sedan in silver. for looks i think the sedan looks better to me as for practicality the wagon wins. Im excited to start the modding process all over again as i got bored with my stage4 wrx as there was nothing left to do on it,i havent even diven it in the last 3 months , time to part her out!!!! hopefully ill be able to recapture the pure power of it in the new legacy

what would u guys pick wagon or sedan gt limited???

The sedan looks sexier, but handling-wise, the wagon is more balanced. You should've gone to the Ride and Drive a couple of months back.

I much prefer the Wagon, I thought the lines flowed much better than the Sedan. It is definitely more practical and, there is enough room for the ladies to lie down in the back when the seats are folded....no more needs to be said. Good luck with your new purchase!

hmm... like you said yourself, the sedan does look sexy but the wagon has more room and practicality. Personally, I'd go for the wagon since I have stuff I need to haul around sometimes.

I kinda regret getting a WRX sedan than a wagon

Also, to help with with your choice, you might want to look to see if there's any difference in the price of insurance for the sedan and for the wagon.

Sedan... Frankly I had a hard time driving the wagon as you can feel a big difference in braking power, the car is heavier (you can feel the difference as the turbo lag seems even longer), also the wagon just don't stop as well as the sedan.

The only part I like of the wagon is the huge sunroof... but other than that, the Sedan will be more pimp once modded

If you can live without the added cargo space, go for the sedan.
It's lighter and probably a little quieter inside too.
You might want to find out if the suspension is the same on both, or if the wagon is set up a little 'softer'.

The wagon is only 30 KG heavier than the sedan.

Wagon! as Tora says it's more pimp than sedan, but honestly u see more other sedans done up, but not so many wagons done up. And if u can make good use of the extra trunk space, such as go biking, snowboarding, etc, wagon is more special than sedan. The only thing I don't like about the wagon is the extra length, oh well, tall girls need to get lay too...

I vote for a wagon. As to aspect's comment about the back seat, mine rarely gets used either but I'm constantly lugging around 4 race tires in the hatch.

I vote for wagon as well. The sedan looks good but it remind me of a car some how. May be wait and see if they'll make a STi verison for North America? If you do get the wagon, don't forget the 18 inch BBS wheels, they look hot and your kids should travel in style as well.

The Sedan reminds you of a car? Interesting....are you sure it doesn't remind you of an elephant, or a platypus?
