The Subaru Forester started life off as a bit of an oddball. It was a crossover ahead of its time, adopting a body design that was somewhere between a wagon and an SUV. But as the times rolled by, the Forester was assigned the role of mid-sized SUV, becoming one of the core, high volume products in the Subaru line-up.
While its appeal in the public sphere increased, some old-school Forester enthusiasts felt it had lost its shine and become a bit bland.
To counter these claims, Motor Image kind of went all out with the modifications. They created and showcased this: The Subaru Forester Ultimate Customised Kit Special Edition.
This concept showcase is not for sale, and no details were shared. But here’s what we observed.
