What exactly is the appeal of a shooting brake? They invariably look ugly as sin.
Who the fuck thinks "I'd like a sports coupe but I just NEED 20% more cargo space"?
>>
Why is it called a shooting brake? wtf does that even mean? Pretentious faggotry.
>>
>>28896763
That's not a shooting brake, it's a hatchback coupe
shooting brakes are loooong

a brake is a type of carriage, and a shooting brake is a carriage for hauling you and your lads and your dogs and your guns off to the hunt
>>
>>28896763
You wouldn't get it, it's a patrician thing.
>>
>>28896772
Shooting brake is sort of a station wagon but with da curves.
>>
Because its still a small, nimble car and the enlarged rear cargo area allows it to be usable as a daily or carry 2 luggage bags for a road trip.

What is improved by smooshing down the rear cargo area to be more car like? Better stability above 180mph? ooh, ahh.

If you're throwing a melty over just the name then you're a lost cause.

>>28896763
Its a coupe with extra space so I can fuck your mother in it while remaining comfy

>2 luggage bags
what, are you a woman?

It's called a shooting brake so you can throw all your guns in the back when you go hunting small game like bird.

Clearly none of you can shoot, so no wonder you're ignorant to the appeal of it.

It's a high end wagon based off GT cars and sportscars

It's fancy because its fundamentally not for poors

No, I have a woman.

As shooting brake as they come

>>28896763
You can go on a road trip in a car that's optimal for having fun on back roads while also carrying a good amount of cargo for doing other things with. If you don't intuitively get it, it's because your idea of fun is sucking dicks.
>>
>>28897080
so basically every modern "shooting brake" is about as far from a suitable hunting vehicle as you could possibly get? Haul your golf clubs to the course more like.

The 350z will fit two sets of golf clubs, you don't need a shooting brake for that
>>
>>28898549
>two sets of golf clubs
It's that code for gay?
>>
>>28898553
No, it's literally a sticker in the trunk
>>
>>28898553
If two sets of golf clubs is gay, what's three sets?

IMAGINE carpooling to a public golf course
the POOREST shit
>>
MB made the ONLY attractive shooting brake, but I'll concede that VW's passat CC wagon comes close.
>>
Gayest design in automotive history

>>28900731
Nigger that's a wagon
>>
The AeroWagen mod is kinda neat.

It's probably closer to 4x the space of the roadster's trunk. It's a very usable amount of space.
>>
>>28896763
A station wagon for people who think station wagons are for poors.

>>28900731
That's fucking ugly. Also

>>28896763
As a Z3 roadster owner I never got the appeal of the breadvan coupe. It just looks ugly in my opinion. Z4 Coupe on the other hand looks very nice and they nailed that one.
