#21504 of 21536 Re: 2011 Tribeca?? [lirrmike] by movedor Nov 04, 2009 (10:46 pm)
Replying to: lirrmike (Nov 04, 2009 7:30 pm) Look at the Tribeca sales from the past months and tell what you think is the most likely : Oct 2009: 246 Sep 2009: 358 Aug 2009: 797 Jul 2009: 707 Jun 2009: 784 May 2009: 671 Apr 2009: 567 Note that improvements for 2010 model are very minor, unlikely those low recent sales numbers are because of coming model. However it might be from the expectation of more discounts for 2009 model when 2010 is on the lots.

#21505 of 21536 so it WILL have AWD! by nippononly Nov 19, 2009 (7:27 pm)
The Toyota-Subaru coupe WILL be sold as a Subaru, with standard AWD, and 50 more hp than the Toyota model! Interestingly, they apparently think they can get 250 hp out of the Japanese 2.0 without turbocharging it - that will be quite a feat. http://www.insideline.com/subaru/toyobaru-new-details-on-subarus-version-of-the-- toyota-ft-86.html Replies to this message: movedor (Nov 19, 2009 10:01 pm) nippononly (Nov 20, 2009 7:16 am) rsholland (Nov 20, 2009 8:15 am) and 1 more... volkov (Nov 20, 2009 1:50 pm) movedor (Nov 20, 2009 6:16 pm) and 2 more... rsholland (Nov 20, 2009 5:24 am) ateixeira (Nov 20, 2009 11:30 am) nippononly (Nov 23, 2009 8:04 am) ateixeira (Nov 23, 2009 9:09 am) and 2 more... volkov (Nov 23, 2009 1:49 pm) and 3 more...

Replying to: nippononly (Nov 19, 2009 7:27 pm) 250 hp from 2.0 non-turbo? From Subaru? Doesn't sound very credible.

Replying to: nippononly (Nov 19, 2009 7:27 pm) Well, that's what I'm hoping and praying for. Still it's not "official" until we see something from Subaru confirming that. That said, it looks promising. Bob
#21508 of 21536 Re: so it WILL have AWD! [movedor] by nippononly Nov 20, 2009 (7:16 am)
Replying to: movedor (Nov 19, 2009 10:01 pm) Yeah, I might expect that from Honda (with a 10,000 rpm redline of course!) but not Subaru. I expect it will end up being the JDM turbo 2.0, which if they can keep the weight well below 3000 pounds should be quite entertaining. But not fuel-efficient by any means.

Replying to: nippononly (Nov 20, 2009 7:16 am) I don't know about that. I suspect we may see an all-new boxer engine with direct injection. If so, I expect more power and better fuel economy. Bob Replies to this message: rblnr (Nov 23, 2009 8:16 am)
#21510 of 21536 Re: so it WILL have AWD! [nippononly] by ateixeira Nov 20, 2009 (11:30 am)
Replying to: nippononly (Nov 19, 2009 7:27 pm) What happened to the whole "affordable" angle? Originally it was supposed to start under $20k. I'm sure they meant $19,999 plus $800 freight, but still. Now we're at $25k for the Toy, $30 grand for the Subie? Add, what $3 grand at least for a convertible version?

#21511 of 21536 Re: so it WILL have AWD! [nippononly] by volkov Nov 20, 2009 (1:50 pm)
Replying to: nippononly (Nov 20, 2009 7:16 am) Honda couldn't even do that with the 2.0 in the S2000. That was probably the highest tuned mass production car out there.
#21512 of 21536 Re: so it WILL have AWD! [nippononly] by movedor Nov 20, 2009 (6:16 pm)
Replying to: nippononly (Nov 20, 2009 7:16 am) I hope they focus on reducing weight instead of increasing power. And I hope they bring it closer to those $20K instead of $30K. Mazda Miata was a success back then because of its low price as sport car appeal, not for its performance. Replies to this message: rsholland (Nov 20, 2009 7:17 pm) ateixeira (Nov 21, 2009 4:25 pm)
#21513 of 21536 Re: so it WILL have AWD! [movedor] by rsholland Nov 20, 2009 (7:17 pm)
Replying to: movedor (Nov 20, 2009 6:16 pm) Miatas are still successful. The base prices of 2010 models range from $23,560 (Sport w/soft top) to $29,000 (Grand Touring w/retractable hardtop). These prices are from the Mazda web site. Of course, any options push those numbers up. Bob Replies to this message: ateixeira (Nov 21, 2009 4:25 pm)
