Subaru Exiga caught



A JDM Subaru Exiga with the optional aero kit was caught mostly unmasked. Note the huge glass roof. Link is here .

UPDATE:
Latest word that I've gotten is that the Exiga is not slated to come Stateside , nor is it merely a slightly different version of the next Outback...
While the next Outback and Exiga may, to a degree resemble one another, they are each very much their own vehicles.

As to coming here? If it happens, it won't be for at least 2 or 3 years.

I was pronouncing it Ex-eye-ja. Could be wrong though.
 
Don't know what to think about the blue tinted headlights.

Looks like competition for the Mazda5. Wish it had sliding doors though.

Is it a glass roof or carbon fiber/figerglass?

Does anyone else think the rear license plate looks like a blurred California manufacturer plate?

SubyTrojan - I thought the same thing when I first saw that pic on nasioc.

Latest word that I've gotten (yesterday) is that the Exiga is not slated to come Stateside, nor is it merely a slightly different version of the next Outback.

Hmmm... I think I'll update the blog entry with this latest info...

I hope that rumor is wrong, Bob.
 
The Mazda5 is successful, even without AWD, even without a 3nd row bench, even without stability control! And it's a bit too small.
 
This Exiga could address every one of those concerns.
 
Don't ignore us, Subaru!

I don't think so. I've got it from a very good source that there are no immediate plans to bring it over here.

The 5 has a 3rd row bench
