Gee, I love when the talk turns to wagons <grin>.....

Anyway, top three (not in any particular order) fastest wagons I know of
(sort-of regular production, not one-offs or drag wagons):

- Audi RS2; see picture of Dave Eaton's at

- Aston Martin 'shooting brake'; picture of a 1992/95 version at

- Brabus T V12, which is an E-class Mercedes w/a V12.  Scroll down this
page for more info: http://www.brabus.com/e12.htm

If anyone else knows of any others, let me know.....I want pictures and
information!!!!............SLM
