I can see why they're hesitant, with most Americans opting for a boring crossover instead of a wagon.

I'm still keeping my fingers crossed though that they bring it over. Maybe then Alpina will bless us with this beast.
Regulation wise, I would think most of it was already done on the G8X ? Or is there some other major things to undertake specifically for the touring ?

Maybe more of a market / sales fear... From BMW's market analyst anyway...
The wagon would have different weight/dimensions so it would need to be crash tested etc.
