I love mine. \r\n\r\n\r\nBeautiful, yes, and a lot of fun. I\u2019ve had one of these for about 3 years as my daily and I love it. Plenty of power, handles great and brakes very strong. The ride is sporty, not soft, with excellent damping. In short, it\u2019s an enthusiasts wagon. Don\u2019t go running for pinks with CTS-V, E63 or RS-6 wagons, but in the real world it has all the performance that you\u2019d need.\r\nIt has been very reliable. I got the plastic coolant runners replaced when they blew, but otherwise no problems. I\u2019ve had the infotainment system glitch on me a handful of times, but never for more than a short time.\r\nThe interior finishes are not up to Mercedes or Audi, but they\u2019re acceptable. The seats are comfortable and highly adjustable.\r\nI do about 25 track days a year and took my Sportbrake out for one session \u2013 it was fast and handled well on the track for a 2 ton wagon, with no bad manners. It did warp the rotors a bit, but I doubt you could do that on the road.\r\nThe transmission, when put in sport mode with the car in dynamic mode, is telepathic, grabbing just the right gear for max power. In normal mode, it\u2019s benign and smooth.\r\nI\u2019ve yet to see another one while out and about.\r\nCongrats to the new owner and GLWA.", "likes": 4, "timestamp": 1725639754, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 15491434, "authorName": "Marlow42 (The Seller)", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/marlow42/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "@Mr_Persnickety.
