They did make S2 sedans too, but they are rare. Very rare! Only 307 cars
were made.

The others do try. MB has the E55 AMG touring. BMW does NOT have the M5
touring (they did though) These two are in the competition as the ultimate
wagon, but they are not that special as the RS2 or RS4. They are more
competitiors for the S6.

One of the closer I know of is the Japanese market only Mitsu Galant Wagon
3,5 V6 twin turbo. It has the full monty, 4wd, 4ws, 4we
(four-wheel-everything), but due to Japanese legislations it is not allowed
to have more than 280 hp so it isnt as close. I bet it could easily have 400
hp but it is still a rice-car.
