eurospek Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Here it is . . . . . http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2595.jpg But seriously, http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2597.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2601.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2600.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2599.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2598.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2603.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2602.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2604.jpg Compared with the old 1994 Honda Accord EX wagon. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2607.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2606.jpg Slammed wagons ftw. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y82/eurospek/DSCF2597-1.jpg And my quick driving impressions are it's an awesome upgrade for my dad. I just love how it soaks up all the bumps and potholes of the road. Also the "higher" seating position is nice compared to the Accord which was pretty low. And the Outback interior FTW, blows the 9-2X right out of the water. Dollar for dollar, I think the 2009 Outback offers a lot more for the money than my 2005 9-2X does when comparing brand new pricing of both.

D_J Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I agree that the Outback heavy-duty suspension does a fine job of absorbing potholes and bumps on the road. Went from a Legacy wagon to Outback wagon...and have been impressed with the suspension improvement. Before I would winch going over potholes and hope nothing broke...now I can feel confident and not sweat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodstock Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 NICE! I like the silver trim rather than the wood trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LGT-NY Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I always hated Ryan Seacrest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurospek Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 NICE! I like the silver trim rather than the wood trim. Same here, hate wood, and the cloth will serve my dad better than the leather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_J Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I seriously considered the Seacrest. However prefer that old dark green used on the older Legacy Outbacks. Seen a few around and wish they still made that color available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_J Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Yes exactly. Although I prefer the single color instead of the two-tone. I like Subaru's choice to roll-out the Bronze though. Very few automakers use Bronze. Only seen Infiniti FX's and a couple other models in that color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredrik_wt Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 the grill and rearbumper at US cars is not so nice... but I like the color! Is it xenon lights? (I would love to have the RS4 rims at the allroad at outback, must be great) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_J Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 The grill is the biggest minus, but it grows on you after a while. As of yet, no aftermarket grills are available. Re: rear bumper...the vinyl/rubber top is better for moving heavy cargo - so you won't scratch the paint if you use the OB as a truck frequently.

BAC5.2 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 So the older grilles aren't interchangeable? I actually don't mind it so much. It's just going to be difficult to fit a pair of Hella500's behind it.

D_J Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 No, judging by some of the photos I've seen of older Outback's...the 2009 grill is much larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiKap335 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 No, judging by some of the photos I've seen of older Outback's...the 2009 grill is much larger. 2005-2007 OB's have a different grill - there are a few aftermarket options for these years. 2008+ have the new grill...which is fugly in my opinion.

SubaruOutback08 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 That looks really good...Personally I'm not a fan of the Solid Color outbacks for some reason..I like the two tone paint like mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAC5.2 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 What mod? I like the bigger front end compared to the older cars, personally.
