Subaru Exiga Spotted Wearing Skin Tight Duds

We're a little less than a month from the 'official' unveiling of the 2009 Subaru Exiga, but seeing the STI-looking one this morning and this scantily clad one now, we're betting the embargo dam breaks before June 17th. It's going to be like a game of whack-a-mole pretty soon here, trying to keep up with all the seven passenger crossover news. And by the way, when did seven passengers become the new five? When everyone has a seven-seater, will there be a nine-seater arms race? [WorldCarFans]

Subaru Exiga STi?

It's got a sleek aero-kit, bronze-colored wheels, and a scoop on the hood. But, is this an STi version of the forthcoming Subaru Exiga? Have our cries been heard? Does mommy have a new rally-rocket? More »

2009 Subaru Exiga Spied Testing

Yesterday, we showed you some teaser images of the upcoming Subaru Exiga, but now we've got some new shots of the 7-seater tall wagon. We're happy to see the crossover was apparently hitting the track, something you probably wouldn't see most family haulers doing. No officially confirmed word yet on powertrain options, but we hope there's gonna be an STi version, as unlikely as it is.

Subaru Exiga Teaser Makes Us Want A 7-Seater Crossover... Kinda

Unless we're talking about an AMC Eagle or a Mega Track, we're not huge fans of crossover vehicles. But there's something about this Subaru Exiga that makes it feel acceptable. As we can see from this teaser, the new 7-seater looks to be significantly better looking than the B9 Tribeca. And while it's hard to tell for sure through this shadowy lighting, it seems that the Exiga will be more on the big wagon than the compromised SUV side of the crossover coin. We just hope the flat boxer engine and AWD will uphold Subaru's reputation for making wagons that can tackle twisty tarmac. Photos below the jump.

2009 Subaru Exiga?!

Remember that shot we saw that was supposedly the next-gen Subaru Forrester? We guess now it may not be. Spy mistress of the automotive masses Brenda Priddy claims she's snagged a working Subaru Exiga on her (or one of her minions) travails across the wilderness. Priddy claims we should see it as a 2009 model. Jeez — we haven't even seen this concept revealed yet — that's happening at the Tokyo Auto Show in just a few weeks — and already there's speculation it'll be built. Still, it's hard to deny the facts — there was an Exiga-looking thing traipsing around out in the open. Full spy report after the jump.

Tokyo Auto Show Preview: Subaru EXIGA Concept Car

Hot on the wheels of the WRX STi reveal last night, the folks at Subaru revealed their diabolical plans to rule the wagon segment at the Tokyo Auto Show later this month. The first non-production vehicle they'll be showing to complete this evil plan is a Touring concept called the EXIGA — a seven-seater combining a spacious interior with "exhilarating driving performance." Well, you know it's got to have "exhilarating driving performance" — because it certainly isn't going to survive on looks alone. Although that's never stopped Subaru before. Full press release after the jump.
