The single e46 M3 wagon that was built by BMW. Can’t think of a box that thing wouldn’t check If it has to be a production car, probably an Alpina B3 wagon for much of the same reasons

Jeff Farley

Probably an E60 M5 wagon, V10 manual. Could fit all my stuff when I want to golf, camp, or surf and probably fun enough to drive on a twisty road.

I would return my old friend the P2 V70R Wagon. Spacious interior, best seats ever, can have a 3rd Row, 6 speed manual, 300HP, AWD so you can hit the snow. And it’s not a lame BMW or Mercedes like everyone else is gonna chose haha

Ferrari FF. 4 seat 4WD supercar that fits a mtn bike in the back and you can take on ski trips. V12 650hp. That or b5 RS4 Avant in Nogaro Blue😂

Porsche Cayenne GTS manual transmission in red with black interior 🤠🏎️

Casey Parkin

Audi RS4 Avant w good all seasons.

Robert Huerta

GR Corolla. Modern, hatchback practicality, 4 doors, capable, tuneable, Toyota dependeliability.

Justin Hall

G81 m3 wagon. The front end is ugly as fuck, but modern, fast, 4 door, awd, safe for family as a dd

Christopher Haringer

HSV ClubSport R8 Tourer LSA (manual transmission). I’d learn to live with it being RHD.

James Enright

1987-92 Vanagon Syncro Westfalia Camper. Our only car from 2013 to 2021 was our 87 Westy (2wd) and would not of rather had anything else (except maybe a syncro version). Note: My family uses public transportation for our commute. Could be convinced to go with an Audi RS2.

The BMW E53 X5 Le Mans. McLaren F1 V12. Manual. Family hauler. Still has full rear interior (+ bucket seat upgrade!).

Bobby Read

Porsche 992.1 manual. Plenty of storage, nice performance, a fairly robust car that should have parts available for a long time.

Panamera Sport Tourismo GTS, OEM+ rally mods

I want to say CTS-V Wagon manual, Chevrolet SS manual, or E34M5 Touring. But the "rest of your life" part tells me I need something I'm sure I can keep going and I'm imagining difficulty finding the following items in 30 years: Australian parts(SS), electric door handles(CTS), fobs vs mechanical keys(SS and CTS-V), or anything for a car BMW only built 891 of. My pick has an electrical architecture that's not terribly complex, an engine transmission and rear axle that can be repaired or replaced with spares so numerous they will outlive me, a back seat, a roomy hatchback, and has often been pressed in to service as the only vehicle to meet all my life needs, from commuting to road trips to rallies to camping to school carpool: a certain 1999 Camaro Z28 6 speed T-Top coupe.

MK6/7/8 GTI or R, rear trailer hitch and roof rack CT-5-V-BW 6-spd for that magical gearbox and V8 galore wish I could say CT-4-V-BW instead, but rear leg room there is non existent E60 535I/550 wagon/sedan or E39 wagon. manual only May be F80 M3 (haven't driven one)

amalitsky

with three seat second row! what a stupid idea to kill practicality of this with having 2 rear seats only on 90% of Panameras

Jaz Rahul

Impressive choice, especially considering the way that Macan drove on the last rally! GiddyUp!!

Chris DuBurg

A 911 because the bigger your family gets, the more sense it makes.

Jerry Harding

Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing with the six speed manual. All the performance I could ever want, room for four adults comfortably, and I can fit hockey gear in the trunk.

Jackson B

Rear engined, air cooled, six cylinders, manual transmission - the Chevrolet Corvair Lakewood

Thomas Morgan Jones

1965 BMW 1800 TI/SA, 45 DCOEs, 300° or 324° cam, 10.5:1 compression, 5spd cr box, quick ratio steering, Restall sport seats, Walsal wooden steering wheel, bigger brakes than the TI, 165hp with the 324 cam, 4 doors, big back seat and massive trunk … low production homologation special… And my dad already has it.

With a 10gallon auxiliary fuel tank.. 18 gallon tank and 11mpg city gets annoying

Kellin Patler

73 Carrera RS or a Carrera GT. Never having kids, so I’d just rent a truck if I ever needed to. But - for the wagon obsessed among us - the Alpina E39 B10 Touring did come with a manual. Or, E34 M5 Touring, B7 RS4 wagon, or R34 Stagea GT-R Wagon.
