pachilla Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Hi, I am new to this site and I own a 2007 Subaru Outback 3.0R (euro spec) in Taiwan. The car is a euro-spec and is manufactured in Japan so some minor details of my car differ from North American Spec cars (HID, headlight washers, grille, roof racks, rear bumpers etc.) BTW: A Subaru Outback in Taiwan retails for $1.78 Million NT dollars or around $60K USD. OUCH !!!!! I would like to share some pictures with everyone here. http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/993/33397550oo2.jpg http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/272/95589650io1.jpg http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/1100/62924346ug3.jpg http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/8553/57236810vd3.jpg http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/5430/24099462gs9.jpg http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/4435/22zz4.jpg http://img390.imageshack.us/img390/3463/23fj0.jpg http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/8056/outback1qm5.jpg http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/6195/outback2lk2.jpg http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/8696/outback3ap5.jpg http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/888/outback4qw8.jpg http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/2996/car1kw0.jpg http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/4567/car2ar3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggs Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Looks awesome! Great pics. Nice to have headlight washers also. SUBARU: PLEASE PUT THE DAMN EDM REAR END ON THE USDM VERSIONS FOR GOD'S SAKE!!

Actually I surprised that your car without any damages:) I were in Taiwan in last year and saw that a lot of cars (old and very new) have any damages:) p.s. today I think about go to Taiwan again on Computex I rented a in door parking space and I almost never park my car on the side of road and I only drive it once a week or so. I ride bicycle to work until I got hit by a car while riding to work so I am typing this message with 3 broken bones, 6 titanium screws and a titanium plate in my left arm. But my car still received a couple paint damages from careless drivers who tried to drive around me so I had to took my car back to the dealer for new rear bumper paint job. My arm's current state after sugery, my bike fixed after spending around $600 USD for repairs. http://img396.imageshack.us/img396/7701/arm1at3.jpg I was hit by a Ford Modeo driver who ran a red light right in front of Taipei 101 the world's tallest building with a traffic cop standing 50 feet away. http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/7176/101pr1.jpg http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/5941/79157157pu0.jpg http://img167.imageshack.us/img167/2388/38000602gn0.jpg http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/5702/27362821sb3.jpg http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/4118/69787226rc4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pachilla Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 You live in a BEAUTIFUL country, wow, talk about scenery! Rocky coast line and rain forest of a Pacific tropical island offer a distinctive scenery when compared to the North American or European continental scenes which I also loved when I lived there.

Tatunka Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Where are the headlight washers located? are they intragraded into the headlight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pachilla Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 Where are the headlight washers located? are they intragraded into the headlight? Take a closer look at the headlight's inner edge near the grille. You will see two chromed doors which pops up and washes the headlights when you activate the windshield mist function with headlight on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pachilla Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 The house was a private B&B which we spend a weekend at in the moutains far from the city. In Taiwan no body can afford a "house" like that in the urban area and there is none available. Everyone lives in an apartment-type place with very small living space. That "thing" under the TV is a refrigerator http://www.funso.com.tw/ProductImages/2007051500006/2%BC%D3%AEM%A9%D0%20003_org.jpg http://www.funso.com.tw/ProductImages/2007041000001/IMG_0127_%A4j%A4pPic6.JPGhttp://www.funso.com.tw/ProductImages/2007041400002/_RED4962Pic8.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pachilla Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 Are the wing mirrors on that power folding at the touch of a button? I am smelling an EDM conversion over here yea, its power folding mirror, but the switch is located next to the VDC switch which I think is less than convenient IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadlydave Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Wow, gorgeous car. The appearence looks much smoother and crisper than the North American version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VirtualReality Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Looks great! I knew the first pic can't be taken in Taipei haha. Land is too expensive not to build apartments. I think I'll do some EDM conversion when I ship my car back in few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
