Story of my life... Audi discontinues Avant and has no plans for any S/RS Avant for NAR and now BMW. Exploring 2014 E63 Touring/Wagon but just not in love with it as much as I would be a BMW or Audi product.

On bmw.de I could only find a 5 pages flyer, no catalogue yet. But the configurator is up though.

This argument falls apart because we get the 5 GT.

Looks great! If only BMW would bring this over instead of the godawful and hideous 5GT.

Analog love. I get it completely
Steering has changed a lot since then

Rather funny how in the States you call an estate an "mommy" car. Here in Western Europe, the estate to sedan ratio is about 60 to 40 and nobody thinks of the estate as something less desirable than the sedan.

We actually see SUVs more like women's cars as virtually every women prefers them over a decent (e.g., non-SUV) car There really is no point in an SUV on a standard road, is there? And even if you very often drive offroad, I guess there are better cars for that...guess it makes us all feel high and mighty. To me an estate strikes perfect balance between practicality and handling (= fun).

Well you do sit higher in an SUV, and in a world of SUVs on the road that's important. I also have a Z4 so I'm perfectly capable of discerning the nuances.

i'm not saying I wouldn't enjoy a 5 series estate here, I know I would. But I don't feel short changed with my X3 M Sport... And it is considerably cheaper than a new 5 touring would be, and that's nothing to sneeze at either.

There are two sides to every story.

I would also be very happy driving around an X3, don't get me wrong. And sales people here are exactly making the claim you do: don't you want to have better vision among all those other SUVs - and it is starting to become a real argument here too...

Very nice! I attempted to be practical when we ordered our new 5 series, but the wife insisted that if we were to buy a 'really nice car', then it had to be a sedan, as it 'looked so much better'.

So I had to fall in and 'settle' for a sedan! (Luckily this is also what I prefer!)

I'm sure when we go on summer vacation with all our suit cases and packing that'll shell regret, but...thats life!

The G31 is not coming to North America.
