The XV is just a glorified Outback Sport that is a little taller, and a little slower. So anything that fits on the new body style will most likely fit on the XV. My dad was tossing the idea around of getting one, but I think he is going to stick with his 2011 NA Impreza for a little bit longer and patiently wait for news about a new WRX. However, if they came out with a diesel version in the US I would be all over this haha.
