Well, they need to do something for the MY change. Considering they just did an extensive face-lift for '08, they are really only left with the possibility of mechanical and gadget upgrades (further expanded VDC in the line-up, blue-tooth, etc). Like Bob has expressed, sales for the '09 will likely lag without some considerable interest-grabbers.

C'mon, kurt!
Join me in a group buy. Two 2009 Foresters.
We'll get a great deal!

I'll see how that '09 Forester looks up at the Oregon car show.
Hopefully Subie will let folks get inside to get feel of interior.
By comparison, Mazda and Mitsubishi seem to prefer keeping people out of their new models. I guess they're afraid the cars will get stripped or damaged.

The LL Bean Forester is wide open at the DC Auto Show. I'm checking it out this weekend.
Keep your eyes peeled, I'll have photos and maybe even some video.

saw it at Portland Auto show, and posted in separate thread.
In brief, was impressed - in many ways better than the Outback, and cheaper.
