[QUOTE="keshy, post: 2677207, member: 59008"] [IMG]http://www.zerotohundred.com/uploads/cash/Forester/Forester17.jpg[/IMG] I prefer the old design. That’s enough said from me and I think it is pretty obvious to see what I mean. I don’t agree with the design, but as with almost all Subaru’s of old and new, it’s what underneath the skin that matters. The third generation 2009, a total redesign of the award winning crossover utility vehicle (CUV) that will debut at the 2008 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit in January. The new forester builds upon its predecessor’s reputation as an icon of safety, dependability and versatility. [IMG]http://www.zerotohundred.com/uploads/cash/Forester/Forester2.jpg[/IMG] As before, the 2009 Forester comes equipped as standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. An all-new platform featuring a 3.6 inch longer wheelbase (now 103.0 inches total) and double wishbone rear suspension improves crash worthiness and provides crisper handling, a quieter ride and increased interior and cargo space. It also has the same high seating point and interior versatility with passenger car comfort, handling and fuel efficiency as the older Forester.
