Thesis: Anyone who drives a BMW Touring and isn't a car enthusiast is a badgewhore.
Why would you buy a BMW wagon? I'll use the Volkswagen counterpart for comparison. Passat vs 3 series, both are D segment. Space? Volkswagen wagons are cheaper (depends on where you live) and more spacious - pic related. Handling? It's a fat and heavy wagon, you don't buy a wagon for handling. Performace? You don't buy wagons for performance but if you wanna argue that, the 328i 193hp E46 does 0-60 in 7.4s while the 2.8L 193hp B5 Passat does it in 8s flat - it's heavier by 200kg (440lbs). So there's no significant difference. The only argument I can think of is dat I6, but normalfags don't pay attention to that so it's not really a valid argument and VWs have V6s and W8s. VW parts are also cheaper than BMW parts (depending on where you live).
What other reasons are there to buy a BMW Touring over any other wagon? Discuss.

Simple, VWs are shit.

Here's one word you probably forgot about when buying your car: quality.

The 3-Series has traditionally been a bit smaller than the Passat, currently shorter by about half a foot. The 5-Series on the other hand is bigger than the Passat and probably also has more space. It slots right between.

I drive a shit car indeed, but it's not a VW. It's 316i E36. Nice deduction skills but justifying a shitty purchase wasn't the point of this post.
