Used Car Review - Subaru Outback (2006-2009)
Car Choices:
Unlike other markets that offers low engine displacements, the Philippine spec gains a 245hp 3.0 H6. This alone lets the Outback accelerate without that asthmatic feeling at the expense of fuel economy (you wouldn't buy this car for fuel savings).
R - the only variant available - models are fully equipped; which is a good thing. One gets six airbags, dynamic control system (traction control in Subaru speak), torque distribution, fog lamps, headlight washers, roof rails, leather seats, moon roof, cargo cover, all power features, six disc changer, automatic climate control, keyless entry, and alarm system.
