rverdoold Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2009-subaru-forester/544490/full/ All new forester looks cool although wouldnt give the bonnet wing mirror a long life time in holland (being pulled of). But rest looks nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hklaine Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 and a few, essentially useless, "technical" specifications... http://www.leftlanenews.com/subaru-forester.html i think the old "wagon" bodies suited the forester better. just my $0.02.

ericem Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 It looks like a Suzuki but ya that interior feature does seem neat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phizinza Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Take it off the road and that front bumper is going to die... Why is the Forester such a 'softroader'. Why can't they make it decent offroad. We don't need anymore 4WD city rigs. Sorry /rant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzam Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 What is the red knob on the left side under the dash?? http://www.autoblog.com/gallery/2009-subaru-forester/545163/full/ If it was on the driver's side, I'd hope it was a mother-in-law ejector.

J A Blazer Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 It appears that the door windows are now framed rather than frameless, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericem Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Yes. Another subaru lost in the game of frame or frameless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otis Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I think it's ok... hard to tell unless you see/drive it. I did notice it had a "start/stop" button. I just don't get this trend. There are some cars where you just leave the key in your pocket and you just press the start button (pretty cool). But then most cars I see with this feature, you have to insert your key, then press the start button- kinda stupid if you ask me. It just makes starting your car just a little more cumbersome. Other than the "gee-whiz" factor, what function/convenience does adding a start button offer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rverdoold Posted January 2, 2008 Author Share Posted January 2, 2008 What is it with these frameless door windows. THey are just cool. Driving in summer opening the door and you just see just the door which makes it look like a real sports car. Subaru also proved it whas not needed for safety (looking at all subies without them performed best in safety tests. There seem to be more wind noise without them. (mine does, 05 OBW doesnt?!?). Looks like a starting button taken from toyota. Its fine as long as you can keep the key in the pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
