  • Sure footed, stylish, well appointed interior, a bit thirsty

    Nov 20 '06
    Pros: A great choice for the price considering the bland competition.
    Cons: A little thirsty in the city.

    Summary: I have had the joy of owning a B9 Tribeca Limited 7 passenger with the nav/dvd system for just about a year now. We took it on a cross country trip with a family of four, starting from Oregon, going to Long Island, NY and back while stopping in some ...

  • After owning one , great experience

    Oct 12 '05
    Pros: Truly well designed top to bottom. Excellent sound and MP3 rep.
    Cons: We need an hybrid soon Subaru. No Hitch , trailer accesories

    Summary: This goes against the theorists that talk and talk but have not actually owned one. This is a review for a fully loaded 7 seat (ok, 5 3/4)champagne Tribeca.. love the color, very elegant. So lets begin with what clearly everyone complains about. ...

  • Honda/Toyota alternative

    Aug 10 '05
    Pros: Interior, build quality, spaciousness, engine. 18" tires!
    Cons: Front nose

    Summary: My wife and I test drove several suv's including the Honda Pilot. We were dead set on purchasing the Honda since we knew we could get a 2005 for about $30500-$31,500. We drove the Highlander and forget about. It rides smooth, but it's small inside and ...

  • 2006 B9 Tribeca is a winner

    Jul 02 '05
    Pros: Interior room, exterior styling, available options, comfort
    Cons: third row seat has limited usefulness, red back-lighting on the dash

    Summary: I have been interested in this vehicle since I first heard about it in late 2004. I even attended the Auto Show in Pittsburgh just to see it. My anticipation level was sky-high by the time the first models arrived in the local showroom, and I have not ...

  • Well Done SUV with Personality

    Jul 01 '05
    Pros: Breaks from the crowd, great comfort, good power and handling.
    Cons: Forget the 7 seat option, rear visibility less than great

    Summary: Let me start off with one the more controversial elements of this SUV: Styling. While several publications comment that the B9’s nose is odd looking, the car has drawn 100% complements from people seeing it on the street in real life. I have not ...

  • This is the first Tribeca to come off the assembly line, and she likes it!

    Dec 10 '06
    Pros: Quiet ride, solid construction, unusual design, not overpriced!
    Cons: Could have better gas mileage, auto heating system could be better designed!

    Summary: As the title says, it is true! Somehow I purchased the first Tribeca to come off the assembly line. As a matter of fact the VIN of the car is B37669000001. Even the insurance company made a comment when we took out the auto policy on it. He had never ...

  • Cheap Interior, Marginal Room Mar Otherwise Impressive SUV

    Aug 09 '05
    Pros: Standard Subaru reliability and traction.
    Cons: Chintzy plastics; ridiculous rear legroom.

    Summary: I've always been a fan of Subarus, but have never appreciated the look or stance of the Forester. Notwithstanding the ugly nose (that apparently will be adopted across the entire Subaru product line), I was very much looking forward to the TriBeCa. At ...

  • 7 Passenger Seating is a Lie.

    Jun 05 '05
    Pros: Looks cool. Great cockpit for the driver.
    Cons: Fake 3rd row seating and lousy cargo space.

    Summary: I was waiting for the Tribeca to come out so I can take a look at it. I was hoping to use it to replace my Chevy Venture. My requirements were cargo space and 7 passenger seating. And since it's a Subaru I didn't even bother worrying about handling ...

  • A bit short in too many areas

    May 26 '05
    Pros: Comfortable front and second-row seats, interior styling and materials, smooth ride, safety features
    Cons: Just about everything else; too cramped in back in seven-passenger form

    Summary: I'm going to need a vehicle like the B9 Tribeca about a year from now. But it won't be the Tribeca. You see, a couple months ago I made a deal with the...with my wife. I can get a sports car if I also get something larger and more functional to ...

  • This is an amazing aircraft !

    Jul 06 '08
    Pros: Excellent design, strong, powerful, safe and incredibly smooth!
    Cons: It is not good in gas like other SUVs!

    Summary: I got this two months ago and enjoyed it very much. It is strong, powerful, safe and incredibly smooth on the road. I love its high tech design that looks much better than pictures posted on-line. As a matter of fact exterior design of 2006 and 2007

  • Love The Tribeca

    May 02 '07
    Pros: Power, gas mileage (for an SUV), handling, finish, economy of size
    Cons: not enough storage/ cup holders in front

    Summary: This is my wife's car. I encouraged her into buying it after I had an Outback for 2 years. I have a very similarly priced Honda Pilot and i am always amazed at how much better the Tribeca is in many ways. It drives like a sports car with great pickup,

  • amazing

    Sep 19 '06
    Pros: Everything, It's truely amazing
    Cons: no direct mp3 hook up

    Summary: This vehicle is one of a kind. At first i wasn't crazy about the styling, now I feel nothing compares. If you drive one you will buy one. I have owned a Mercedes E350, volvo s60, Audi A4, and about 15 Volkswagens. There is nothing that drives like this

  • It is a Subie...sorta

    Jan 16 '06
    Pros: It is a Subaru. Great handling and plenty of power. Nice styling.
    Cons: Needs memory seats for the price you pay.

    Summary: I have owned almost every kind of make and model the Japan makers can build. I have had the best luck with Subaru. My 2005 Forester has been great. My wife decided she didn't like her car (a Honda minivan), so we looked around. She liked the Tribeca

  • 2006 Subaru B9 Tribeca

    Jun 23 '05
    Pros: Upscale; quiet, smooth; responsive; leg/hip room; VDC, airbags standard; multiple seating configurations
    Cons: H6 3.0 struggles on long inclines; third row entry/exit OK for small kids

    Summary: This car fits my needs very nicely, with plenty of leg and lateral room in the first two rows, a quiet, smooth ride, unique looks, and all the amenities and options of a much more expensive SUV. The entry-exit is much lower and easier than

  • Love the New Look

    Dec 11 '05
    Pros: Price, Styling, Options, and Safety
    Cons: Engine could have been larger

    Summary: Love the new look of Subaru; the B9 especially because it is distinguishable from all the others (SUV's) on the road. I am especially to enjoying the time between now and when the streets are crawling with them. The large tires and the duel exhaust
