hehe, kung walang demand edi hindi magiging sold out yun :rofl01:

anyway, Subaru is not a high production automaker. and they themselves will be the first to say they don't build Subarus to sell to everyone. but their curious blend of performance and utility has given them enough of a cult following to sell their cars.

Maybe the new one is still scheduled for arrival and launch?!

a good product is a good product. people will keep buying it (sold out or not) as long as it continues to be a quality vehicle offering performance, safety, reliability and value. other countries, such as england, australia, new zealand, have at least a 2 month waiting list for the forester (especially the FXT), so this is not unique to the philippines.

Dem. 2 months?

Oh well, some folks used to wait longer than that for a toyota fort -- used to though, is the operative word.

and the Pajero.

2 months is worth it especially if you're waiting for something like a Fozzie. It's just hard to wait... you know why.

[SIZE="3"]FYI lang. I spoke with the dealer, the new '09 Forester will be out by July daw. No prices yet, but after surfing, i found out that in the US, the prices have actually dropped by as much as $1200 for the base unit.

Medyo wishful thinking nga lang sana that they will drop the prices here too.

peace ou[/SIZE]t!

Yah. They said nga July-August daw so I figure late July or early August. For 50K, I bet they'd just add accessories. Maybe they can put in a better STEREO.
