Re: RumorMill: Subaru considering building a 7 passenger SUV
Is that a 7 passenger? The pic on the site looks like 2 front buckets
and a single back seat, for 5 total.

not trying to be mean or anything, but have any of you heard of UNIBODY. they don't build with frames much any more. Mainly large trucks and huge SUVS only. Chrysler pacifica, the new chevy equinox, for escape, honda pilot, all use unibody. All subies are unibody. therefore they wouldn't be getting the frame from anyone. If anything it would share a legacy or forester platform. I imagine tho that they will build it's own platform. SIA in Indiana would probably be the site to build it since Isuzu is pulling out.

I'm picturing the clown car at the circus when i imagine 7 adults
climbing out of anything built on a legacy or impreza platform.

It will probably be based on the GM Europe Zafira model base, I seem to
recall it is already sold in Thailand wearing a Subie badge, but I may be
mistaken.
