What a kickass piece of automotive engineering. i can't wait to see one on the street. i can really see how a lot of people are going to see this car and just think "geeze.. that's one ugly-ass station wagon" but I dunno.. it sort of speaks to me. I like it a lot. Plus it's 430 hp RWD..

Not sure if its the baddest sw ever. Lotus put out a Re-badged/engineered Ford SW in Europe about 10 years ago. Did 0-60 in 4.1 seconds and topped out close to 160. Not bad for a SW esp. in the early 90s. Lets just wait and see if Dodge ruins it with cheap parts and that wonderful Product of Mexico build quality. The design is quite solid though but it really should be offered with AWD as well. That'll work on getting people away from SUDeathtraps.
