i dont think it would really matter, if u really think about it. its a wagon. are u really gonna try to whip it around a corner and race it? ok some people would try cuz i see them do it all the time in the wrx wagon.

but i gotta agree wit u as far as wagons go. it looks awesome. i wonder how much that thing weighs and if it gonna get more power to make up for the weight.

You damn well better believe I'd race it. And just like the WRX wagons kick the sedan's *** for handling, the Evo wagon will probably do the same. It's only about 200lbs heavier, so that can more than be made up for in driver skill. A wagon is going to have a better weight distribution and chassis rigidity than an equivalent sedan almost all the time.

The wrx wagons have 80lbs more weight over the rear wheels, would make more more balanced handling in a front heavy bias car, easier to hang the tail out
