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.

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.

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.

The competition may be: The RAV4 4-cyl 4/auto (Toyota) The Santa Fe V6 4/auto (Hyundai) The Outlander 4-cyl CVT/auto (Mitsubishi) The CR-V 4-cyl 5/auto (Honda), and The 2009 Forester 4-cyl 4/auto (Subaru) From the above the CR-V or the Outlander could be the winner because of the up-to-date technology. However the Forester provides better off-road items, e.g. center differential (mechanical), limited slip differential front, limited slip differential rear, limited slip differential center. I will feel much safe driving a Forester than the other ones. Another factor is the petrol consume of these vehicles and prices. Equally, from the photos the Forester (Japan) does not come with a rail roof and I think this is a disadvantage. I personally like my SUV has a rail roof so when the situation arise I could order a cross rail and therefore be able to load several items on it.
