^ Don't get me wrong, I personally don't like the idea of a wagon version of the high performance cars since it's somewhat odd. But the reality is, there is a small market out there for them, but big enough for it to be profitable to make offerings for them.
SUV sales have been steadily dropping in recent years due to the crazy hike in gas prices here over the past couple years, which is good. It will only increase our supply of gas, improve our air quality, and hopefully decrease the downsides of accidents, as smaller vehicles tend to be easier to maneuver and less deadly than a Ford Excursion plowing into you in the event of shit happening.
But like I said, with cars that start of as econo-mobiles (Evo and STI), it's harder for them to take measure to make the car a 50:50 balanced car, so the wagon counterparts tend to handle a bit more neutral as I have mentioned before, so the wagon guys will always throw that argument out there, along with being able to fit a dog, snowboards or whatever they like to haul around.
