New Lib Blitzen for AUS!!!

 		  Top of Page

by rxliberty2000 on 09-02-06 07:37 AM

Yesterday Subaru Australia launched the new 3.0 Blitzen (meaning Lightning in German) at the 2006 Melbourne MotorShow. Just goes to show that Subaru Japan and Australia have a great level of confidence in the Liberty in Australia. There will be only 200 examples available in both Sedan and Estate models and will only be available in Red or Black.

Not available till June 2006 thus helping to fill the void until the Liberty GT returns in October this year.

I saw it today at the motorshow.

Looks pretty good, except for the front grill.

I took some pics, I'll post them up later on.

Hmmm....

From what I can tell, this looks like mostly a cosmetic upgrade rather than any sort of performance upgrade (like, for example, the Liberty GT Tuned By STi model - at least you know with that one it has a revised and upgraded ECU and suspension setup, amongst other things).

This car seems like it's just going to be a special edition Liberty 3.0R-B....

I dunno if it will be worth the extra cost.

Just my guess tho wink

No engine/braking/suspension upgrades - just dubious cosmetics that make it look worse.

Care factor zero :glare:
