Default Ex Chevy guy getting a Honda.

So I currently own a 98 Camaro V6 and will be selling it off by the end of April and picking up a 4th or 5th gen Accord wagon. Preferably 4th gen but with either of those the pickings are kinda slim around here in NYC, so I'll take what I can get.
The Camaro is all out fun with the T-Tops and RWD, I'm gonna miss that. But the fun quickly wears off once I have to give my tall-*** friends a ride and try to cram them in the back seat or haul anything bigger than a few bags.
The wagon sounds awesome. Practical, can be made plenty fast enough with the right mods which makes it kind of a sleeper and cool in a nerdy way. Noone would expect to see an Accord wagon go tearing-*** down the highway

Anyway, thought I'd get into the Honda community and start learning about these things so I'm more informed when it comes time to get the car. Just gotta wait till the end of the month for tax refund and bonus money from work to come in.

Yeah, I figured. Everyone thinks I'm crazy for wanting to swap my Camaro out for an Accord. But what can I do, I love wagons. I even considered converting my Camaro to a wagon by fabricating a custom hatch for it similar to the Hurst Hauler Firebird



But you're still stuck with the tiny rear seat and the general design and shape of the 4gen's trunk means that, while it's big, not much of that space is arranged in a useful way, even if you convert it to a wagon.
