same platform found under the Chevy Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, and the new
Buick SUV (Ranier, I think)? Let's see, how would one of those look with a
hood scoop?

RumorMill: Subaru considering building a 7 passenger SUV
I was talking to my Subaru dealer the other day and he mentioned that word
came down that Subaru
was playing with idea of building a 7 passenger SUV. Then we started
thinking. Where are they getting
the frame? Well the best we could come up with, which is pretty farfetched
is the following.
The Pontiac division of GM is going to stop making their minivan and Aztek
line in order to get more
into the performance sedan line, I.E. supercharged Bonnevilles,Grand Prix
and even supercharging the
Sunfire. So we thought that maybe they would send the frames from the
Aztek and minivan line over to Subaru
since GM owns a share of Subaru.
What do you think?

Any idea if there is going to be a Subaru SUV or MiniVan coming to North
America?

That's nice. I'd like to have that DVD navigation system or the billet
grill (addon).

Re: RumorMill: Subaru considering building a 7 passenger SUV
I lived in Japan for 7.5 years... there were many makes and models of
Toyota, Nissan, and Honda that were built exclusively for the Japanese. And
other manufacturers that aren't in the U.S. I used to think "man, those
will sell great when they market them in the states", but never saw those
models in the USA. So the point is that just because they're manufacturing
them in Japan, doesn't mean they will be here.

Built in Thailand, rebadged European Opel/Vauxhall Zafira. No boxer
engine and no AWD, very poor seller here in Japan.

The Traviq is simply the GM Opel/Vauxhall Zafira; those sold by Subaru (in
Japan only) are built in GM's Thailand plant.
