its a low down suv actually..5seater... :driver:
That depends on which Forester you have... I know the first and second generation ones are monsters as they have STI variant... It is almost like a Impreza WRX STI disguised in different form.

No, what I meant earlier is that the Forester is 'looking' like a 7 seater car. You know, typical non-car people will assume Forester is the same with cars like Grand Livina, Avanza, Alza and so on. Know what I mean?

Exiga is nice. Also with boxer turbo.

Ah, the first generation is the one that looked like GC8 for the interior? The 2nd Forester interior looked more like GDB series Impreza.

haha yep.....

i got two people in different occasion told me that he/she thought it was thai vehicle (u know la thai got low down pickup truck series)....

and a few others thought that sf5 was a nissan xtrail being lowered and installed nose scoop :rofl:


and true...forester model normally shares similar stuff with impreza that was 1-2 manufacturing year older than the forester... sf = gc, sg = gd and so on.....


ok back to the studio.... bodykit aerodynamic :driver:

i'm digging the satria GTI R3 front splitter as they claim that it works and improving front grip in sepang....

Ah, no wonder I saw the Mira Gino Rear Bonnet Glass also damn dark.

Ah, terrible. Disgrace to the Forester that it din't gain recognition by people. You should have just show your friends the engine. I'm sure anyone can tell that isn't an ordinary engine. With that top mounted intercooler and unique looking intake manifold.

It's a bit disappointing that Forester now had evolved into a full size SUV instead. But I heard that there will be a STI version of the current Forester. Not sure is it launched yet or not. Using the new direct injection FA20 engine....

A lot of Japanese recond cars have dark glasses on the rear. Especially Estima and Alphard/Vellfire. Some of them are totally pitch black.

forester is considered wagon category, same as caldina.
Legacy wagon too. But Forester is also leaning more towards crossover SUV isn't it?

Well u can go for Legacy Wagon, as SUV nowadays seems to be one of the main favourite for consumers. Not sure why but more and more SUVs already.

Ya, the Gino Rear Bonnet seems to be totally black. To me is more like endangering myself if an unexperienced driver following me and they cant see ahead of me through those dark rear windscreen.

Urgh, that kind of high ground clearance for SUV doesn't seem appealing to me. Unless it is for going offroad or over floods. :biggrin: Even better, can park on top of those pedestrian walk if can't find parking. I saw before. I'm not underestimating SUVs here as I know there are monsters in that category as well like Cayenne Turbo, Range Rover Sport, Q7 V12 TDI....

Er, I din't know anything about Gino rear bonnet. You mean it is already black when it came out from factory?

actually the early forester was meant to be SUV......but the americans call it crossover utility vehicle...and forester do actually compete with CRV,Xtrail and other similar sized suv...heck..even i found out that forester is very close in dimension of nissan xtrail.....

now subaru crossover platform was taken by the new subaru XV ( in us ppl call it impreza crosstek/crosstrek like that)


so forester is totally full size SUV not... and the ride height was fit for SUV..even since the early forester came out..that was the default ride height..just that when people bought it and started swapping parts with impreza it became the low down version that u guys normally saw on the road....

(*the SF5 ckd malaysia was reviewed in local car magazine side by side with volvo 850 wagon and first gen honda crv...which one was wagon..another one is suv...thats put forester exactly in between those two car type :rofl: )


recond/import car was normally brought here with factory standard "privacy glass" which usually range vlt from 33% to as low as 18% ..... in australia their RTD got special clause that those import car with privacy glass WAS LEGAL to use as long as the glass was originally on the car...not using normal tint......
