Classic, non-offensive, looks solid, as if carved out of a single piece of metal.
Four Motion AWD provides incredible grip. Fora 2004 model, LOTS of safety features, numerous airbags, full alphabet soup of braking/traction/etc. AWESOME brakes.
Everything in the W8 wagon speaks of quality.
The W8 w/ 5spd Tip-tronic + FourMotion AWD is one incredible powertrain combo. Only downside is fuel economy.
Very good, popular car.
