In my searching around the web, I have run across pictures of an Orange Baja. It's cool looking:<br><br><br><br>My belief is that this is a pre-production Baja. Note the extra lights in the bumper, silver roof rack, and the round gas door. But the real interest is the back!<br><br><br><br>A place to keep my drinks when I'm at the beach or something. Cool.
Hey,<br><br> This is the concept car for the Baja. The ST-X. It is really cool looking in person. Wish they would've went wiht the full fold down midgate.<br><br>Frank X.<br><br>
I like that storage, drink holder idea, ;D I wonder why they didn't do that. ::)It also looks like that concept is a little higher off the ground than the production units. :'( Mike
Yes, I see them advertising the hell out of the thing this weekend. Underbed storage is neat, however, if you have anything in the bed and have to get in the storage area..... I would be cussing up a storm, because I would have to unload the bed to get to it. At least they advertise it, UNLIKE SUBARU!!!!! Mike
THat is indeed the Subaru STX. It had a SOHC 2.5 with an Eaton Supercharger, B4 intercooler and hood as well as guage cluster. and of course, it had the dual range 5 speed transmission! McIntosh stero system and a ton of other cool things. THat cooler deal is kinda where the spare tire goes on our cars...I do wish we ahd the power inverter in the bed like it did though.
It had the extra driving lamps in the bumper, LED theater lighting around teh licence plate and Also had the turn signals in the roof rack! I have a feeling the full folding switchback weakened the structure too much to be crashworthy (It is an outback with the roof cut off after all). It was a pretty sweet car and Ive been out to get a baja ever since.
I just emailed soa and asked if i could buy the concept st-x directly from them... also included a few comments about how they should have included more of its (st-x) features in the production models... i already know what the answer will be, but wouldnt it be nice to have?
Yes, that would be nice to have. They prolly sent it to the crusher already. Nice interior shots Bob, too bad they didn't do that with production models!! I was thinking of doing a body color dash plate thing in mine, I have to talk to our body shop guys and see how expensive it would be.
I do not think that they would have crushed the STX. Most car companies hold onto their concept cars in storage of some sort. This concept car was an SOA concept car. I hope it is still around somewhere. All in all, although there are a lot of things I would have liked to have, they actually did carry over a good number of things from the concept car. I mean we get the Sport activity lights as an option, we get some kind of switchback system, cup holders in the bed and so on. Although I've only had my Baja for 3 weeks, I absolutly love it.
Yes, its prolly locked away somewhere, and we will never see it again. But you never know. As far as mine, I have had it for a year now, and still lovin it!! Mike
yeah the cargo window would roll completly down into the midgate, then the seats and midgate completly folded forward making one huge flush cargo area.
