NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Would Mustang Sally drive a station wagon? Maybe she'll get the chance.

The next generation of the Ford Mustang could include some previously unthinkable variants including a four-door sedan and a station wagon, according to a report in the magazine AutoWeek.

"To a Mustang purist, this is blasphemy," said Bob Gritzinger, AutoWeek's senior editor for news.

Perhaps this is Ford's inspiration.......

I'm a Mustang Enthusiast, and I am receptive of the idea. Depends on their treatment of the basic Mustang outlines......

[Red Badger]

I don't like the rear end treatment in that pic. Needs to be squared off, not rounded,,,,,,,,,,

The 58 Buick is awesome.

As long as it doesn't go the way of the Mustang II, it might be alright.

In what way? The Quality of those II's was horrible! They are now rare finds.........

Actually, there was a wagon corvette when the corvette was introduced in an exhibition in 1953, but it never made it to production.

78-83 Ford Fairmont Wagon.

For all practical purposes, it was the same thing as a Mustang Wagon for these years.

LOL. That's because the people who own them are ashamed to show them in public.

[Bigh4u2]

Sorry. I meant 54', not 53'.

Hmmm. Kinda looks like a Dodge magnum... ;)

I have a '55 4-door wagon.

Some people think it's a Nomad, and I wish it was, but I love it anyhow.

Who really cares? It's a car---transportation.An assembly of steel,metal,plastic and glass and chemicals.All cars are a necessary pain in the ass from a Yugo to a Rolls Royce.

I knew a guy when I was in high school that had a Vega 350.

It was one of the fastest cars I'd ever rode in. He used to race it on weekends, I can't remember him ever losing.

I think it's because they either rusted into dust or they are all recycled into toasters...........I read that the II's are a really popular teen retro car in Scandinavia somewhere......
