So what specific 4th Gen Outback model did you buy?

Jumpem · 08-07-2009, 09:19 PM

2.5i Premium CVT.

CVT!

No leather or auto climate control.

Love it. Looks good, decent ground clearance, roomy inside, and 29+ mpg.

Please save these kind of comments, if you don't have anything to add then don't post. You didn't buy anything

I answered with "2.5i Base CVT" but I have the Canadian spec'd base model which is closer to the US Premium model. For example, it comes with 17" alloy wheels, heated seats and side mirrors, privacy glass, fog lights, power driver's seat. And PZEV (but without the extra warranty).

Also, according to Subaru Canada, the AWD on the CVT version is an active system with 60/40 F/R which adjusts as needed up to 50/50. I understand the US spec'd model is 90/10 instead of 60/40.

I though that was odd that they'd have such separate lines in the same plant.

I want to buy a 3.6 Ltd with Nav but there aren't any...why?

Anyone know about SOA production cycles?

Its not that there aren't any but rather that one probably hasn't made its way to any dealers in your area. I know of two in the St. Louis, MO area. Go to a your nearest dealer and ask them to locate one for you, if they can't do it go to another one. Heck, email them or get a sales manager on the phone, at this time if you're serious about buying a vehicle most dealers will go out of their way to accomodate you

Agreed, but they are in very short supply. We have a great subaru website - newenglandsubaru.com - that searches inventory of the entire six state region. We had a total of three (yes 3) 3.6's with Nav since 2010 OBW launch. The only one in NE I wanted (Graphite Gray) was in Maine and now it is sold. Compare this with the 100 CVT models now available, I have to think that they delayed full production of the 3.6 model line.

In addition, subaru.com still does not list the 2010 OB model as "available" (it is still listed as a future model) but the 2010 Legacy has been on the site as current since the beginning of August. Either their web folks are slow or there is some sort to delay in the offcial OB launch

Does anyone know about priduction schedules? Do they alternate runs of the different models and trims?
