Despite a reputation over the years for innovative design and being prepared to offer technically non-conformist solutions, the global financial crisis sent Subaru running to hide with many of the worlds car-makers.

Specifically, Subarus designs suddenly became much more conservative than they had been.

A company that was once prepared to give us crazy little road burners like the original WRX overnight became one that was more prepared to tread the safe path that traversed the car-making middle ground.

So, the WRX became less in-your-face than ever before and the volume selling Liberty model got a styling job in 2009 that may have appealed to North American buyers (and maybe not) but certainly not too many others.

The slab-sided, taller-looking Liberty of 2009 was all about not scaring the horses (especially in the lucrative US market) but it did nothing for the brands reputation for innovation or lovable quirkiness.
