As someone who recently did a 2 year lease on a Legacy, I'm anxious to see what the 2010 model changes will bring as I'll be back in the market by the end of 2010. My sources tell me the vehicle will be 2.5 in. wider which will be a welcome change as if there is one area that could use a little help it's interior room. Frankly, if they don't make the interior less appealing than the current model and make the styling a bit more sleek and upgrade fuel economy a bit they'd have my interest. I'm extremely happy with the current model. The preview photo of the front end doesn't look bad. Let's hope the rest of the vehicle gets a decent styling treatment.

Replying to: oregonboy (Jan 11, 2009 10:32 am) Yes, I agree, it is quite hideous, both inside and out. The exterior proportions and angles are all wrong. Looks like a love child of a 2005 Kia Amanti and a 2007 Chrysler Sebring, on steroids. Interior looks like a mish-mash of factory and aftermarket. No coherent theme. I wonder, with all those touch screens, if they ever figured out how to make the climate control actually work... I seriously hope they tone this thing down for production. Subaru - if you're listening - please don't bring us another Tribeca! On the plus side, the 3.6 liter engine would be nice if they keep the weight under control. |

| Here's a thumbs up vote on the looks -- pretty cool! Lots of Acura in the shoulders and wheel wells(even Mercedes here, though everyone's highlighting them now), BMW a_s. Yet coherent. | |

If I were an executive at Acura, I would be preparing the trademark-infringement lawsuit right now! I like the current model better, but I wouldn't call the concept "hideous looking". Certainly, it will be more the right size to compete in the midsize market in the U.S. with the WB stretch. There will still be wagons too, I hope?
