They've basically done the same thing with the 5th and 6th gen too.

? have you ever seen a 50s or 60s car....well pretty much all american cars pre 1980....no 2 years were the same. Corvettes, camaros and mustangs were outliers in that they looked somewhat similar from year to year...but no 2 years went unchanged.

Only sheet metal. Plus the basic layout was shared with Firebird and Nova.
3.5 years! the style changed mid 1970.
they made changes to different panels, and tweaked some of the trim.
changed up the lights a bit - as mentioned, some was regulation.
Now they just change which color is available.

Plus the suspension is 100X better, the early ones drove like a pick up truck
in all seriousness it looks like one of those vibration dampers, change the harmonic so the car doesnt shake itself apart.
unless theres wire/hoses ect going to it that i cant see
Bad engineering... is it a sump pump to pump out all the water that leaks through the convertible top? Lol
hmm, reservoir for hyd fluid?
now come on....who doesnt like the 69 camaro? what are you a commie???? LOL

Winner! Fluid filled dampener, because the convertible chassis flexed so bad they added two of these to counter act the vibrations. Don't fix the flex just cover it up with a band aid.

Instead of a new spark plug???
dude, those plugs are hard to get to....im fucking busy man.
no honestly, her 09 outback is a mess....needs so much shit, HG is blown, leaking coolant into the cylinder and oil externally, needs struts, brakes, exhaust is shot, like every part of the suspension that has a rubber bushing pretty much....steering rack is leaking...The latter shit I wouldnt mind fixing, the head gaskets....its either I do it and the car will be off the road for weeks im sure at my speed (not something i have ever attempted, so I would have to learn myself how)...or her cousin wants $2000 or $2500 to do it...eh..she deserves a new car....and I told her to get any car she wants....this is what she wanted...so I think i got off cheap.
