I was wondering about "estate wagon" too since I knew it was a UK term but the steering wheel is on the wrong side for there. Maybe it sounded more upscale for Buick buyers, rather than something you took to the train station.
Fireball V8! with 150HP, now less powerful than a Honda Civic.
I did not know that Buick made station, um Estate wagons like this. Very nice!
