Nice, I think. I dunno if I'd like to see an Outback based on this concept, though.

I still say they should import the Baja into australia. Or, better yet, a two-door version with a proper-sized tray and call it the Brumby! :P

*edit* Um... do they still make the Baja at all? Subaru Canada don't list it on their website, yet they still have that godsawful Tribeca thing. bleh.

Looks kinda cool. I wonder how roomy it is in the back seats!

The article appears to have been written by a 6 year old...oh my god the spelling and grammatical errors!

"accomplished their goal of crating a wide-open wagon to comfortable hold seven."
"The EXIGA Concept is a has so match glass you can barely distinguish....."

This one makes no sense at all...
"There are obviously features of the car that would need to be changed in order to make production a reality, Subaru looks to have done a good job at combining neo-futuristic elements, show their potential at creating a sought-after wagon."
huh?!?

Not bad but the designers really struggle with the grille don't they? Looks kinda good from the rear even though it is a little boxy.

>>do they still make the Baja at all?

No, they stopped making it in 2006 but the stocks lasted until Q3 this year!

looks are ok, like the more boxy backend, the tailgate might actually be
useful as shelter from a downpour, like the ol L series:)

"7-seater" so this is going for the "people-mover" category:confused:
that would be a new marketing segment for Subaru.
IMO much rather have them do something more serious for off-road,
like centre-lockable AWD, lower low range (and they've already done these
before),more clearance.
