Someone deleted my thread on this. Maybe my tone was "poor" or something, so I'll try again!

There has been some talk of this. I just bought a 09 Outlander XLS and I'm at the dealer (Healy in New York) and spoke with the manager. I told him I heard the rumor and he said it's true. They were told recently that at present there are no plans to release a 09 Evo here as a refresh is slated for early 2010. He was surprised that anyone else knew about it.

Since it was in his best interest to tell me otherwise (I was looking to buy in a couple of months) I think his info is on the money.

I'm going to hold off until I hear about the 2010 refresh since spring will be here soon enough and I have a Legacy GT to keep me going along with the new Outlander.

This is valuable info since some folks, once this is known to be 100% correct, will be able to get killer deals on 08's. Others can wait for the new model, but it's a long wait for us with no "deal" to be expected on a even hotter car. I "expect" that the 2010 will be a detuned FQ400 of some type, and that the body will be very close.

I deleted it - it is old news.

 

first time ive seen this.

 

if anything delete the threads that show there was no effort or searching beforehand. there are PLENTY of those.


ok i'll be on topic too. i thought i heard they were going to have the 09 evo here in the US. now i gotta look for that post.

 

damn thats crazy did not know that good info im happy with my 2008 anyway so thanks

 

the last few pages of this thread, Theory delay 2009 evo x, a few people have heard rumors from dealerships there will be 09s but it sounds like just that, rumors.

 

I wonder if it will still be a X model. I dont know how long they leave a model out, but i wouldnt be surprised if they went right to the XI.

 

resale value on 2008's may be helped by this.

 

Information has now been linked. Closing for real.
