The 08 Forester has been out for a while. The 09 will ship in Feb/march time period.

I like how it looks. I was worrying Subaru will botch the Forester's body style, and I'll have to buy 5 Foresters'08 to last me next 20 years but it looks like I'm safe waiting for 09 (while driving my Forester'06).

The power output by dintern

According to their spec sheet, the base model has about 140HP and 140 TQ. That's a step way down from that of the 07 base model.

The Japanese-spec models use a 2.0 engine, not the 2.5 that we get.

nice green color by orangelebaron

I like that aqua/green jade tone. Probably won't offer it here.
Wonder if they'll offer that stain-proof material with the orange stitching.
 
Back seat looks nice and high up off the floor as opposed to too low to the floor like most Subaru passenger seats as of late.

I like it, too, but my wife has a light green metallic Legacy so she's ready for a change. Not sure what she'll want, though.
 
Comments from the photos:
 
* love the perforations in the center sections of the leather seats
* love that rear cup holder/fold out thing, perfect to keep the kids happy
* headlamp washer are neat, but overkill (?)
* only 1 sunglass compartment. Old one had one, then two.
* rear seats recline
 
Nothing here to turn me away from it, still looks very promising. Hope it drives well.
