    Oh, it just figures. Subaru mainstreams the looks on it's entire lineup, then goes and mucks up its one mildly attractive vehicle. Looks like an XC70/Venza/Sebring mashup. Yurk.


    Also did they lose their turbos and how is the 2.5i going to reach 60mph?

    We are not amused with the sub-300HP figures. Something about this sexy-ish wagon just seems, wrong. I can't see the locals trading in their '89 DL wagons for one of these fancy new examples of modern technology.


    I'm not a big fan of imports, but Subaru is an exception. A big one.

    @djsyndrome: The Chrysler Sebring called. It wants it's headlights back.


    I told them to screw off, as the Outback pulls off the styling much better.

    That's better. I like that a hell of a lot better than the Legacy sedan, and a hell of a lot better than either the Forester or the Tribeca.

    @pauljones: I prefer power wheels to the Subaru B-9 Tribeca. What does B-9 even stand for anyway? Makes it sound like cancer.

    @pauljones: But not better than two (or three) previous Outback editions. I own two of those. Yet, I wouldn't give this one another look. The reason: way too big. Whoever enlarged it should be fired. Though, now I understand more of their reasons to label Outback a SUV vs. the car which it was and should be. Apparently my next car won't be a Subaru (Forester or Tribeca are also way too tall and clumsy while WRX bunch are too small).

    @dusanmal: No arguments here.


    I just feel bad for you if you are trying to look for a car to fill the size niche that the previous Outbacks did. The closest I can think of is the 9-3X

    @Chris P. Bacon: The B9 moniker has been dead for over a year.


    And yes, hopefully the new Outback will be the final nail in the Tribeca's (overpriced) coffin. Now where's the Exiga?

    Seriously. Would it have killed them to bring us the EVO Sportback?

    I do have a certain fondness for the Saab 9-3 Turbo SportCombi.
