I am currently looking to get a 3Lt Premium Pack Outback and have found a wealth of information here so thanks to all. I believe that Subaru changes their models in the middle of the year in Australia, so if this is true is a MY05 Outback due for release and does anyone know if there are any changes from the MY04.

Thanks in advance for any information.

Ceck to see if the Australian Subaru site has the info you are looking for. Best wishes!

Hi OB_Newbie, I believe the model changes here are in October, so I guess getting pretty close. I've seen very limited info on the next model and the basic word is not many changes, only rumours though as Subaru hasn't released anything that I know of. You could try looking on Subaru Global for more information. If you decide to get the current model I don't think you'll have any regrets, I've written quite a bit about mine in the MY05 USDM thread.

Welcome to the board!

Hi Outback Newbie, I have found out some info about the Australian MY05: (I also posted this in News but rather than link here it is)

Well scored some information on the MY05 AUS Outback and Liberty/Legacy today when I took my car in for service. The service manager had brochures for the MY05! Biggest change is that there will be a Liberty 3.0R sedan and wagon, and we're getting the Liberty Spec B 3.0R with 6 speed manual and all the goodies, price $54000 rougly. Also Liberty GT will come in a 5 speed manual with 190KW instead of 180KW for the Auto. That car is seriously fast!

Bad news Outback wise is no XT, that's a definite. Also definitely no 3.0R with MT.

Appearance changes are minor. Dealers here are short on stock and waiting for the new models to arrive!
