It sort of runs counter to the latest rumors here though. SoDealer, any comments?

At least it is a picture I've never seen before! Kudos for that!

Alot of these mags were plain WRONG when it came to guessing the previous 'new looks', and I suspect this one is also completely wrong.

maybe the end of the boxer for subaru? used babelfish


From October last year Subaru and Toyota capital tieup half year. The relationship both has become intimate ones at the speed which exceeds expectation. The hybrid of the Subaru system becomes the development discontinuance, in the future, that while being said, whether the Toyota subsidiary company conversion, forecasts ' the future of ***12539;***12539;***65350;***30192;***28608;***65346;***65408;' and Subaru. There is also information of the horizontal opposition engine which becomes matter of concern.

thats the same cladding we have now and that pic has a date of 2004 on the lower righthand corner so that is NOT the 2007 Outback.........

I MY GOD!!! IT NOW LOOKS LIKE A JAPANESE FISHERMAN!!!

Actually, this is waaaaay off fom what I've heard. That grille seems like a half-assed attempt at combining the b5's grille with the current Outback. Looks like ****, but okay photochop I guess...

P.S. Two-tone is going bye bye from what I hear!

o sorry i thought the cladding looked a little different.. all i meant to say was dont expect to see any REAL exterior changes.. just the interior changes such as the Mp3 set up in the LGT spec B

like i said before if the Legacy is to get a exterior facelift so would the outback.. so as to seeing the 07 lgt spec b. dont expect any major facelifts for 07.. but do notice the front cladding on the OB in that pic vs the cladding we have on ours.. the pic is dated but i wouldnt be amazed if that would be brought over here.

Chops away; I think the "new Impreza" spy photos from 2000 were better work that this.

The little fox on top of the picture is cute, though.

Default Headline

The translated text reads:

"Will the next model not have a boxer engine?"

Apparently they're hinting the new Toyota relationship may also allow a different engine configuration for future Legacys. No way can I see that occuring.

BTW, I posted this over on Edmund's Inside Line Straightline blog yesterday using the above image. The Japanese translation is in a couple of the comments.
