Wagons?

Hi. First time post for me. Anyways, I really like the look of wagons and would like to get one for "racing". Well, I can't really call it racing, it's just mainly a daily driver that I would like to be quicker than you average car.

Anyways, do you guys have any recommendations for wagons that have potential to be fast? Thank you and I look forward to your replies.

Re: Wagons?

Caprice wagons are pretty cool...I've always wanted to drop a big block into one of those.

Thank you for the quick replies. Any other recommendations for wagons? What do you guys recommend I do to make them quicker? I would hopefully like to get it to run around low 14's and eventually around 13's if possible. The lower the better. Thanks for the replies.

As far as making them faster it depends on what wagon you go with but the basics like exhaust, intake, tires, suspension, and wieght reduction will help. If you pick a specific wagon it would really make it a lot easier.

Re: Wagons?

My friend also recommended me the Suzuki Aerio SX because he said that it has a good AWD system. Anyways, what do you guys think of the Aerio?

I'd probably go with the Impreza. Also, what could I do to the Impreza to make it faster? Supercharger? Turbocharger?

Also, you guys brought up a bunch of wagons that would be good which is totally awesome but which ones would you guys recommend for me? Thank you.

Re: Wagons?

WRX wagon is probably your best bet in a daily driver that is faster than most average cars.

Plus they'll net you decent gas milege both city and highway... given you keep your foot off the loud pedal.

Re: Wagons?

lol, I'm surprised no one's said that magnum w/ the hemi in it. That thing'll rape you on gas mileage, but it does have optional AWD. I say WRX wagon myself tho.

Re: Wagons?

I'd go with the wrx wagon as well. It's already boosted and has AWD. Which means great handling, off the line advantage, and you can make it faster for very little $$$. Start with an intake, manual boost controller, and exhaust. It'll cost you $400-$1,000 and you will already probably have dropped a second in your 1/4 mile.
My mom has the impreza wagon, and it's nice, tons of fun in the snow, etc....but I always wished it were boosted.
