As Tony Montana would say:
In this country, you gotta make the money first.
Then when you get the money, you get the power.
Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

I don't mind it, looks pretty good really but yes looks like a CX-5 (Ugliest P.o.s i've ever seen) OR even a Ford Territory? I'd buy one though over the existing model.

It's got LEDs, so of course Shiv is happy.
I think it's a buttnuggetus maximus, only rivalled by the XV.
Gotta question your sexuality if you find this thing even mildly pleasing on the eye.
This is another nail into the coffin that is Subaru's demise.

Definately won't be upgrading the SG to one of these. Totally lost the cool fast family wagon look that i love about the early models.

New 30-sec advert filmed in Aus:
Official video from Subaru:
Overall impressed.
Direct injection turbo is going to be a welcome addition. Not exactly sure what X-Mode does as yet but those details will surface soon, no doubt.
Eye Sight and power lift gate will appeal to families. I think this car is going to continue to sell well here in Aus....

Thanks Chris,
Looks like X-Mode is a off-road specific calibration of the already existant VDC system. Will be interesting to see how it performs
I reckon its a safe bet Subaru Aus will bring in the 2.0T, Nik. The turbos sell well in Australian and American markets.

Hi,
So, 2.5 = scrapped? I haven't been keeping my finger on the Scooby pulse recently. Last I checked, 2.0T's were JDM only?
Cheers,
Nik
