E class Mercedes is sold in US showrooms today with coupe, sedan, wagon, and convertible versions. As mentioned above, tons of car companies have done this in the past, but in a modern sense there aren't many who have all four for one body style (particularly all sold in the US).

Pretty much every American full sized and medium sized car from the 1930s through the early 1970s offered a wagon and ragtop version

I thought he did a great job finding those pictures. Especially the ragtop with the spinners and graphics that make right at home in the front row of a Wal-Mart parking lot.

You forgot to mention parking in the handicap spot. At least there is a proper placard hanging from the interior mirror - I hope.

Sold today in the US, I think that we're looking at Mercedes E class, BMW 3 series, Audi A5/A6, and Audi A4.

Close but not quite is the Lexus IS. In the past it was a wagon, currently it is a convertible. CTS has sedan wagon and coupe which is rare as well.

A guy in my town has one of those. I always see him hauling crap to the dump in it.

The early K5 Blazer was a wagon AND a convertible at the same time.

Coupe/Sedan/Wagon (ex: Saturn S-series) aren't that uncommon, but have there been any platforms that have had both a convertible and a wagon?

Basically anything from the 60s was available in convertible form, and most were also available as wagons.

The last car I'm aware of that you haven't mentioned was the European design Cavalier. I know they had convertibles available in the 80s but I don't know when they stopped, but they were also available as wagons. And 2-doors. And 4-doors. And hatchbacks.

Are you certain that e30 wagons were never sold in the US market? I'm asking because I've seen one cruising around in West Philly, not exactly a place to show off uour rare grey market whip..... OTOH, it wouldn't be the first really odd thing that I've seen in Philly

Yes, it is a 100% known fact that E30 tourings were not sold here, just like the E36 touring. There seems to be a small number running around Canada but I'm not sure they were officially sold there either.

This is why the ones that ARE in the US command outrageous $15k+ asking prices. I love me some E30, but not that much.
