The Lighter Side Of Subarus: The Outback Ecto-1
Had your fill of Subarus yet with our Subaru Forester and WRX STi reviews? No? Good. Here's the lighter side of Subaru: a 2003 Outback modified to look like the famous Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters. It may not quite be the 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor, but this Outback does deserve some props for effort.More »

There's a lot of throwing up going on a little in mouths all over today. Shots of what looks to be the Subaru Impreza Outback, sporting a zero-cladding policy that's made way for a strange two-tone paint scheme most visible around the fenders and bumper areas, appeared earlier. So does the higher ground clearance do anything for the oft-maligned body shape? All signs point to, "ask again later." [VW Vortex]

Latest by brandegee: @Brian E: Oops, missed it, thanks. Looks like they've added a bunch more stuff this time around. Not a bad package if you don't miss the turbo and can live with the paint job. I drove a previous-gen Outback Sport and more »

Quadrazontal Success! Sexazontal Time! Flying Wing! Subaru in Detroit!
Subaru, flush with the success of a first-time 200,000-units-sold year in the United States, introduced the new "Flying Wing" front end design on the Legacy and Outback, a look which will eventually replace the unloved Flying Vagina grille across the line, we imagine. The Subies claim that that the new grille design reflects the company's past life as the Nakajima Aircraft Company, although as far as we know, the Ki-84 Hayate fighter's "Special Attack Painting" color scheme is not available. Contact Ai Design for the upgrade package. More »

Paris Preview: Subaru Outback Facelift Uncovered
We — and the rest of Europe's motoring press — be getting our first view of the facelifted Subaru Legacy Outback, which went on sale in Japan earlier this year. Once described as "aggressive blandness" (hmm) the new design will appear in the continent's forecourts in the fall, when the new model arrives for sale. We'll see it in the states in '08.

If You Want Me, Give Me a SI: 2007 Subarus Get Intelligent
As Subaru reps said at the New York auto show last April, the company is launching its SI-Drive system for the 2007 model year. The system's three-position knob lets drivers adjust engine performance for driving needs and conditions — from economical to sporty. Driving modes include "Sport Sharp," which delivers the bulk of torque up front, "Intelligent," which heightens fuel efficiency, and "a-hole," which makes the car to reach every toll booth first, come hell or merging traffic. Subaru confirmed yesterday it would include the system in premium models of its 2007 Legacy (Liberty in Australia) and Outback models, which will be available to interested knob twiddlers starting September 1, 2006.
