Regardless of how well it might handle and how nice it is overall...that face! That hideous face!

Ugliest front end ever. That car could be God's chariot and I wouldn't look twice.

I saw one of these in person at the Mpls Auto Show and it wasn't as unwieldy as it looks in pictures. I frankly doubt I will ever be in the market for anything like this anyway, but if I were I'd consider the Tribeca.

BTW, I believe Subaru is looking to make this look the face of Subaru cars in the future (just as it has been the face of Alfa Romeos in the past!), so we might as well get used to it . . .

Why...why can't that jackass do something original? I don't understand how he could just slap an Alfa nose on every Subaru car and say "DONE!" It makes no sense. None. I find it incredibly frustrating.

The interior is sweet though.

I don't think it looks nearly as bad as you're all making it out to be.....
