New Cars: 2008 Subaru Outback Preview – The Outback is a version of the Subaru Legacy with a reconfigured suspension that gives it better off-road capability. It’s no rock crawler, mind you, but it’s a great option for people who enjoy winter sports, go camping occasionally, or otherwise find themselves in mild off-road situations. The raised suspension is also more comfortable than the standard Legacy, so the on-road ride is quite nice as well. Previously available in wagon and sedan body styles, the sedan is dropped for 2008, returning the Outback to its original anything-you-want-as-long-as-it’s-a-wagon choice.
