iyamdman Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Splise.com lists the "Most Popular Wagons", and the Legacy is ranked #22. Uh, The Saabaru 9-2X was # 13!?!?!? The Outback is # 7 Also, they list a bunch of Mini-vans and SUVs as "crossover vehicles" which I don't consider are Wagons. How do the decide what is the most popular? Let's say it is based on number of vehicles sold - OK, but I can't believe they sell more Saabaru 9-2X than the Impreza Wagons!!! So how does this site base it's most popular rating?

DKB_SATX Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 The site doesn't even give a hint at how they "compute" their results, and considering how much trouble Saab had selling the Saabaru, I'd say their results are in doubt. And the Suzuki Aerio ranked higher then the Legacy as well... While it has probably sold more cars, I doubt that anyone actually LIKES it much, and isn't liking something what makes it popular?

flyboy333 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 I have a very hard time believing that the mazda5 has been out long enough to sell many...maybe space aliens buy them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoman Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Ford Freestyle and HHR are ranked higher than the Outback? I've only ever seen one Freestyle on the road, and rarely see those ugly HHRs. I see more Bajas than Freestyles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Pimp Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 For real yo. The Freestyle is a complete and utter sales failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwannaSportSedan Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Sorry for off topic. but Jedi's new avatar is AWESOME! One of my all time favorite comedic characters. Stuart Mackenzie. On topic: It speaks to the incredulousness that the Outback and Legacy wagons were SOOO far apart. Plus the whole point of "Cool wagons" is that they are NOT crossover SUVs or Minivans. Patently rediculous, and promptly dismissed as tripe. "And, Charlie, LIGHT A MATCH!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix96 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Maybe those rankings simply refer to the popularity of the cars on the Splise website itself. phoenix96 2006 Legacy GT Ltd · 2011 Outback 3.6R Ltd · 1992 SVX 2006 Outback 3.0R VDC · 2009 Forester 2.5X 2002 Outback VDC · 1996 Outback 2.5L · 1986 GL-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoman Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 On topic: It speaks to the incredulousness that the Outback and Legacy wagons were SOOO far apart. I don't know about that. I have yet to see a single 2005+ Legacy wagon on the road, yet I probably see 20 Outback wagons a day. I have a feeling that the Legacy wagon won't be around much longer since the Outback is selling so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjnorman Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 For real yo. The Freestyle is a complete and utter sales failure. That's maybe, but I see quite a look of them in the Milwaukee area (come to think of it I even own one - it is actually a pretty decent vehicle for what it is), however I have never seen a legacy wagon on the road - dealers lot yes, road no. Even the sight of a Legacy itself is pretty rare and the ones I do see are usually the 2.5i versions. Most subes around here are Outbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeTrout Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Ford Freestyle and HHR are ranked higher than the Outback? I've only ever seen one Freestyle on the road, and rarely see those ugly HHRs. I see more Bajas than Freestyles! The Freestyle is a minivan. Ford is in denial. And while there are as many Outbacks as trees in Oregon, I see more LGT wagons than OBXTs. 3 in the lot at work, which means they outnumber LGT sedans (1) and WRX sedans(2). Only outnumbered by WRX wagons (more than 10!) and SVXs (4!). Ich bin echt viel netter, wenn ich nuechtern bin. Echt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebpda9 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 weird. well actually subaru cut the 2.5i wagon for 2007. if you want a 2.5l NA wagon you have to get an outback. also mazda 5 has been around for at least 2 years in europe if i am not mistaken. i dunno about hhr but i see more azteks on the road than those pt loser lookalikes.
