    Didn't know the Forester got a refresh too. Is it just the grill? The music in the video is super annoying fyi...

    Quite a few changes...some are standard, most are part of the higher trims.

    -stiffened suspension and front subframe (I believe)
    -heated steering wheel
    -rear back-up sensors
    -blind spot monitoring
    -reverse automatic braking
    -Eyesight v3.0 (past have 2.0)
    -redesigned gauge cluster and steering wheel
    -torque vectoring (like the WRX)
    -"S" mode in auto (without paddle shifters) has 6 preset gears instead of one rubberband CVT gear (I almost like S mode with the rubberband gear the most in my 2016. It is also quicker 0-60 than S#)
    -redesigned front end and taillights
    -steering responsive headlights (as opposed to steering responsive fog lights on the older ones)
    -automatic high beams
    -memory position front seats

    There might be a few other changes, but that's the brunt of them.

    Looks like they added HID projectors, too. Unless Subaru added those on the '17....
