HomerJay Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 :o How do you say drool in Japanese! I can't believe the things we aren't getting on the car. I think I'm going to wait until they become available. Mainly the Navigation. :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm going to wait until they become available. Mainly the Navigation. :x[/quote] Indeed. You can hold your breath, too. There's probably some guy in Japan saying "I can't believe they gave us navigation, instead of that boss-arse 2.5-liter block. I'm going to wait until they become available." :lol: You might be waiting years for Subaru to achieve the aspirational-type marque status here that it has in Japan. The reason that Subaru can offer those sorts of things there, even though they affect the cost of the car for everyone, is precisely because in Japan, Subaru is a desired car. That just isn't the case in the USDM. If you compare what we get, options and equipment-wise to what they get in Japan, you will always be disappointed. If you compare what we get to what we get (really the only useful consideration), that's the most fair evaluation. Now, the demographic/marketing change might happen if Subaru plays it marketing cards precisely right, but you're talking a period of years, not months. By then, who knows what the USDM-specific marketing brigade will have done to the GT. And that Legacy will be significantly more expensive. Further, I'd be willing to be that nav will be packaged with the leather, sunroof, etc, or available as part of the Limited package, as is the case in other markets. This makes for a spendy car that is at least 200 lbs more than a base GT. For me, no thanks. In Germany, for example, nav is a E2000 (Euros, not dollars) option. :o Luckily for me, the GT is coming just the way I like it, first year. No nav, no HIDs, just pure GT in the grand touring style, with not a lot of weight and more than enough power. Someone else's mileage may vary. :D Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tide Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 I still want a nav, esp for a car I plan on keeping for a while. Most likely I will go aftermarket if its not announced by 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cotmfk Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 [quote name='shelltox']Nihon koku kudasai. Arigato gozaimas. Great site Thanks ![/quote] Arigato gozaimas means "Thank you very much!" kudasai means please... Nihon is Japan. koku, I don't know. :P Maybe Japan parts please! Or something like that. Definitely a cool site! The 3-d stuff worked well for me, but the other link didn't work well. I got to the site, but then none of the buttons did anything for me. Did that happen to anyone else?
