Subaru has dropped the entire Subaru Legacy line in the wagon form. My wife has a 2005 Legacy GT wagon with 5 speed manual which only lasted one year. The next two years it was offered in automatic only. Subaru however retains the Outback (jacked up Legacy) in wagon form.
Another cool relatively affordable entry dropped is the Mazda6 in wagon form.
I absolutely love wagons and the choices are turning Euro only.
Saw the same thing... wife is looking for a wagon, and would have loved a regular Legacy wagon. Now, there is really next to no difference between the base model 'outback' wagons in 2008 and what was the 'legacy' wagon line in 2007, from what Ive seen... and it turned out that less than 5% of legacies were wagons, and less than 5% of outbacks were sedans (another line that got dropped, the 'outback' sedan).
It really is a shame - what we want is a subaru wagon with MT and a sunroof. You cant get MT in the versions of the car that offer sunroofs, unless you get the turbo model, so you have to take an MPG penalty.
Too bad the Jetta diesel wagon isnt out yet... that would let us have an economical MT, diesel wagon that would fit our needs...
