Looks a lot more like a Hyundai Santa Fe now than ever! Actually I take that back, the Santa Fe looks better

It looks a lot better than it did, but still not quite right. Recently Hyundai's got their stuff right in the styling department.

My brother is scrapin coins to try and get a Pilot. I told him to save some cash and get the new Santa Fe. Fully loaded its still less than the Pilot and just as good a car.

Yeah, im not feeling this tribeca. The Santa Fe looks like it has more character. Plus it beats the LAND ROVER LR3 in their comercial.

i'd say neither..looks like the santa fe lol..and im glad they left the interior of the new tribeca..when i worked at a subaru dealership..used to love driving them cause of the interior..exterior has always been brutal thing for the tribeca

I thought there was some Edge(ness) to the new look.btw I have driven the new Edge and i wasnt overly impressed. interior very basic like most other fords. I'm not saying its horrible just nothing to write home about

Did anyone see the new Santa Fe Commercial where they compared it to the LR3, I laughed so hard at that one. It beat it in 0-60, 1/4 mile, slalom, and emergency manuevering. But then it goes to put a nice little checkmark over the LR3 cause it has more cup holders. LOL!!!They have one for another Hyundai where they compare it to the BMW, lol. Love how they are attacking the luxury brands that are not even in their class.

But they've gone from pig snout to Chrysler Pacifica up front, blah.

ya, it's still an improvement imo, but a little too bland. guess that's the Toyota influence we get to look forward to?

Well no new tribecas here yet at continental subaru but we did get a few 08 outbacks in. One fully loaded one with turbo is going for about $33,000. More then what I'm paying for the STi.

i would imagine the Tribecas fully loaded are quite a pretty penny. plus the new ones have an avaliable 3.6L V6 from I hear.

I agree does look pretty boring Although i was reading that the designer of the grills for the other subies the grill before this one got fired beacause of all the flack subie was receiving over it from the sounds of things nobody liked the previous grill and he didnt last long. Cant hate a designer for trying something new but it really did look out of place.
