Anyone have good ideas about aftermarket ski roof racks? My Legacy doesn't have any sort of rack right now, so I feel like a temporary (aka removable) one, if available, might be cheapest and most flexible (I could transfer it between cars). I found one that seems to hook in at the door openings, but I think that it won't work with the Legacy's frameless windows. Has anyone heard of that kind/tried it? Any insight would be appreciated.

Just bought a 2005 Subaru Legacy GT Limited 5 speed manual with 55K miles for 12K. I feel I stole it.  Its in great shape , all records, new clutch, new brakes, new yokohomo avid tires. My only complaint is that it has no floor mats. To my shock, no dealer in my area seems to have the light beige/ivory interior floor mats for this car and say that only the black carpeted mats are for sale. Can this be right?? Please help. Looking for OEM floor mats here, not aftermarket that don't fit specifically this model. Looking on internet, not coming up with anything.

Not sure if this is 'old' news, but I spoke with a Subaru rep this week while getting my oil changed at the dealership. 1) New 2010 Outback being launched at the NY autoshow (will start showing up in dealerships for showing in May) and sale in June/July 2) Diesel is a potential for the Outback (NOT the Forester) this year. Launch hesitation is due to US drivers overwhelming preference for automatic, and they currently only have a manual transmission. Trying to get something to work - which may delay things. This individual mentioned it would be a 2.5L Diesel, rather then the 2.0 in Europe (if true, bummer IMO as it would likely affect fuel economy) 3) There will be a larger distinction between the legacy and outback styling-wise as Subaru tries to extend their customer-base beyond the types who post to this forum. 4) No pictures, but a comment that the Outback may be a bit bigger and with styling more 'squared-off' 5) They also mentioned the possibility of an electric car in testing. Unique model, very small. jh
