The diesel Outback is in production now. As you know, I am a big fan of our 2005 Outback gas turbo, just wondering how the diesel's 110 horsepower deficit (torque is about the same) and diesel engine sound will affect the car's fun-factor.
"Almost a year after announcing their new diesel boxer engine at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, Subaru has finally put it on sale in the UK. The Outback and the Legacy Sports Tourer (aka station wagons) go on sale in February in the the UK with a 2.0L horizontally-opposed four-cylinder diesel engine. This apparently is the first diesel engine of this configuration ever installed in a production passenger car. The new plant is rated at 150hp and 258 lb-ft of torque with an impressive 41.3 mpg (U.S.). That's better than either the Mondeo or Passat diesel wagons and the Subaru has all wheel drive. The Legacy wagon gets from 0-60mph in a respectable 8.5 seconds, even with this impressive mileage. The diesel engine is also 2.4 inches shorter than Subaru's 2.0L gas engine thanks to smaller cylinder bore spacing. We can expect to see this engine appear in the U.S. market under the hood of the Forester and Imprezza in mid-2010."

A stock 2005 Outback gas turbo does 0-60 in 5.8 seconds versus 8.5 for the diesel, but the fuel economy is nearly double.
Since this is a Subaru thread - have you guys seen the video of the wrx in the snow at the snowboard park?

As a result my wife will only let me drive our Subaru to the store and dinner. Tomorrow skiing? Yeah I'll be sporting the 4Runner. Maybe we can make a YouTube video with the 4runnerPosted by: 4LowLocked
