Yes that has been subarus failing in the uk in the last couple of years
The yen has made Subaru very expensive compared to Audi /vw/skoda /seat
The lack of a performance diesel that can give 40-50mpg as my wrxd is off the price lists now when it went over 25k
Rising fuel costs and insurance has killed the high performance market Scoobies and EVOS

Maybe the future for Subaru is trendy looking coupes ,but will the tradional Subaru buyer want a RWD modle ?
