Yes, it's wagon time. Oh, and it's a manual!

This probably explains why it's likely to fetch a pretty penny on Bring a Trailer.

We typically don't go out of our way to feature BAT cars, but like with the recent eBay posts, we'll make an exception if it comes to us via our forums.

Like this 2019 Volkswagen Alltrack SEL with a six-speed manual transmission.

The car has almost 60K miles on it and is priced, for now, at $21,000.

It's Tornado Red and has some mods like Bilstein coilovers, an ECU tune, and a IS20 turbo. The car does have some minor cosmetic defects, according to the seller.

Go check it out.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

It looks very clean, it's a manual wagon... but it's a modified $21,000 Volkswagen, and the original parts are about to hit the fan. Someone is in for a series of headaches (which is probably why it's for sale now at only 3 years of age).

  Nah they would sell it now because they are still turning a profit. These were discounted at the end of their 2019 year as the model was discontinued in USA. Why not drive for 3 years and sell it at the same cost you bought it for when it's still an option. I got mine for 27k new at end of 2019 when a year earlier the car was selling for high 30s fully equipped.

This went for $32,500 plus auction fees. Just unreal.

Mnemic Muscle cars are the only CARS still selling. Look up top 10 coupe sales from 5-6 years ago. Damn corvettes were outselling 2 door honda civics. Mustang, Challenger and Camaro were top 3 and by a huge margin, nothing else came close. With Charger being so huge there is room for Dodge to make a smaller coupe
D i wonder if the geniuses who thought building an aluminum body truck still think it’s a great idea.
