Forester diesel, walang plan ang MI. That's the latest I got from Nikcy.

any specifics on what "new trim" means for the '11 Fozzie?

Anyone here has already done this? Can you share your experience and and estimate how much this will cost?

Thanks

go to subarusociety.org and scp, that's the place to ask who's done it. i'm sure no one in this forum has done it.

new 2.0 boxer engine?

been driving my forester for almost 2 weeks now, 2.0x is enough for my daily needs, so far I'm already contented with my choice. almost 2 weeks ko na rin pala di nagagamit yung vios ko, hehe.

If you need a car ASAP, then why wait...

i agree with this. the difference between the 2011 and 2010 fxt isn't that much anyway.

wait till 2011 so you won't lose as much on depreciation.

For me, if there won't be much of a diff betw current and 2011 FXT models, I'll go for the current. Especially if MI offers discounts and other financing packages to quickly move out current inventory to make way for the new model. Does MI do this?
