We're losing the CT here in the U.S., but I think it will remain in Canada where you are.
The Acura TSX Sportwagon was also a good-looking wagon, with good mechanicals, but went nowhere.....mostly because of SUVs. The SUV craze in the American market shows no signs of easing.
Having said that, though, I'm with you......I hope, nevertheless, that Buick is successful with it. I think it makes far more sense, overall, than its new sister version....the 5-door hatchback with the slanted hatch-lid.

In Australia, Ford sells the Fusion hatchback and wagon but no sedan. In the UK, I think Ford sells all three variants. The whole auto industry would be better served by having all vehicles made to order rather than having stock lying around that doesn't match customer specs, but that's another story.

The full-wagon version (Tour-X) makes more sense in several ways.

Toyota makes the ugliest full size sedans (Camry) and midsize sedans (Corolla) compared to Honda's Accord and Civic, Nissan's Maxima and Altima. Toyota's model seem so bland and quickly put together there's no style, edges, and nice aesthetics like those of Honda and Nissan.

Personally I liked this current gen Camry when it first came out in 2012. The styling was kind of angular, clean, unfussy, the 18" wheel option on the V6 SE looks great IMO. Then they mucked it up big time with the mid-model refresh, made it awkward and overly festooned. This new one is also rather busy, will have to see one in person before I'm really sold on the design.

Saw my first 18 Camry being test driven- White XSE. Question- anyone know what is the object of those black trim pieces are for the tail lights? After seeing it in person, to me it just looks so out of place. The version without seems to have a cleaner look.

Rental fleet managers are licking their chops, it's gonna be so easy to upgrade customers to the Camry with those sick air vents cooling down the, um, whatever.

I'm a bit surprised by the pricing I am seeing on the new ones.
I'm seeing a lot of LE models, which are lower trim models, listed in the $25k-28k range. The 2017 LEs are around $18k-21k. I expected the new ones to be more but that's pretty substantial.
