All new subaru and toyota's look mediocre and boring. They trashed the look of the WRX's New liberty looks like a box on wheels. (with small wheels).

I would not be surprised to see that car become the next liberty. ahahahah

Clever marekting ploy.
Ironic then, that the new liberty looks so mediocre, it could pass for anything; from a honda accord to a camry to a hyundai sonata to a Kia sorento. Tsk Tsk. The silly buggers have inadvertently proven their own ad campaign, that the liberty is anything but 'Not mediocre'.

Fail. An FPV GT supercharged it aint.

That was damn funny. Apparently, I'm not mediocre enough to drive it.
They suggest I should do the following;

* Prune a shrub
* Stop using exclamation points
* Buy a rock tumbler
* Detangle a garden hose.

It does however look eerily like a Toyota/Subaru hybrid.
Clever marketing ploy

Yeah it looks like an Optima.

Shame though the libery is an awful boxy looking thing nowadays. It was once a beautiful car!

The sad thing is, put a Toyota badge on it, and that car would sell like hotcakes
