Subaru: Saab/Subaru venture to debut in December

I knew when GM stuck its nose into Subaru this would happen. It will
probably lead to a bow tie Subie in the future. I now feel less loyal
to my Subaru. If GM ever sends its people into Subaru to held design or
change them, it's all over.

Seems to be all part of the NWO (new world order) my friend. No wonder my
old '67 Ford F-250 farm truck is getting all my respect these days.

Subaru sucks ; )

Well that's one way to look at it. The other way is to see what comes out of
it. New blood is often a good thing. Look at BMW and the Mini for example.

I sorely miss the 2-door Impreza 2.5RS. Maybe Saab will get around to a 2-
door similar to there 9-3X concept:

SAAB ment something when they sold the 93. Smog laws meant they went looking
and found a 2 L Triumph engine Triumph subsequently abandoned. SAAB still
uses it, albeit refined hugtely.

GM doesn't know what to do with the marque and tries to position it against
Audi/Bummer/Bends/etc.

IMHO it needs a unique identity

Rebadging an Impreza and adding $15,000 to the price for some interior mods
.... doesn't impress me. You?

There's also something afoot with FIAT, also involving Subaru AWD (FIAT
cancelled a deal with Mitsu).
