    They are in a sense. But when they are lowerd and all cleaned up they look sooo cool. And 4wd as an option!

    Ofcourse its a nerd or family car. But thats the point. Having a clean ass car and not just hopin on the ban wagon. Well i guess ur hoppin in the Wagon, now that i think of it...

    Your wife and pretty much every other woman on earth.

    They'll change their mind, if it is a ballistic missile...or if you're at a music fest with a twin size latex mattress in the back with limo tint =D
    Cuz you know they don't wanna sleep in a tent!

    Or if you're pulling a jet ski behind it.

    Then they'll know whats up...but yea, having a clean ass car period is cool, especially when they're older like the wagos.

    Yeah, at first my wife was kinda like "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?". Then I gave her one and she started to really like it. When her wagon was down for two weeks she was driving my for and kept asking for her wagon back. :lol:

    that was my wife's first reaction, "you're trading the hatch for what?!?! she doesn't mind it too much now, other than the hood scoop
    her:"everybody stares at us now"
    me:"they always have, it's a civic wagon in a hick town fulled of lifted trucks"

    about the only people who drive cars are either white trash driving domestic beaters, or old people in luxo-liners. four of five or six not riced or beater hondas are owned by my small group of friends

    Well bad new fellas the waggy is officialy down for now. She is being painted and I have to do somthing different with the transmission. I just cant stand the auto any longer and dont know what to do about it but it will have nothing to do with an automatic. I would so much love to hear your ideas so I can source the parts. I was told about using a six speed which I do have or even going with a crv set up. Your help would be great. Also Me and another guy are bringing in containers with as many as fifty engines of all types including b20's-b16's and single vtecs among others. I have been requesting some waggy parts also so you never know!

    Yeah... The Wagon would definitely make a great festi car. I saw a few at All Good this summer. I also saw a Type R... :roll:

    But yeah, Wagons are nerdy looking cars. I'll give your wife that point, BUT... They're also boxy and quirky and awesome.

    my wife LOVES....and i mean loves my wagon. so much so that she demanded that i find her one lol. i really didnt think she would want to drive an old ass honda wagon and damn i was wrong. ......so we got her that 89 RT for 600 bucks that i have started to build. but yeah they are nerdy but that is the cool thing about them at least to me.

  • needawagonneedawagon New Wagonist
    My girlfriend took me to pick up my car and said "I will never ride in that thing, why cant you just be okay with your xb?" But like I told her I own 2 circle cars, and 2 boxy cars now... i never think outside the box just about the box. And she likes to ride in the wagon now, and tells me i need to lower it every day haha!
  • tophertopher Band Wagon
    wagons are a love hate, you either love them or dont. They have reallllly grown on me other the last year.

    My ex loves hers now. She put a lot of money into it and it should serve her well for a few years. As long as she remembers to check the oil!

    Wife loves the wagon! She encouraged me to go ahead and get it. She doesn't mind me spending time on it and she was stoaked when I brought home roof racks for it. Good Girl!
