Great reliability and value

This is my second one and it's a solid, reliable vehicle with lots of features for the money. The best part is they hold their value which is why I traded up from a 2015 to the 2020 for very little money.

New Subaru Forester

Generous sized for a small SUV. Blind spot and rear cross traffic warning features are great, as well as the backup camera. Plenty of other electronic options.

I love my Subby

handles well, easy to drive. I am short and can see clearly out of all windows. All wheel drive is a plus for the harsh winters

My second Forester

This car met both my needs and my husband’s needs. I am short and he is tall, and the seat adjustments can accommodate both of us comfortably.

Upgraded 2017 Forester to a 2020

I loved my 2017 Forester lease car. With my lease three months from expiring I was going to buy the car. Unfortunately it was totaled but happily leased a new 2020.

5th Subaru and best yet!

This is my 3rd Forester. Love the new technology, heavier doors, 2" increase in height, CD player with Ultimate package. Increase in base price from 19' is minimal.

LOVE the Subaru Forester Sport

So far, I love the look, size, options and accessories of my new Forester. While I wish it had a little more pick up, I know that the Boxer engine is ultra reliable and the Subaru's are known for their safety. Willing to forego some horse power for the car that seems to do everything well.

Suburu Forester Fan!!

This is my second Suburu Forester, and my husband kept my last one. I am short so wanted something I was comfortable with and easy to maneuver. Although I find it just right for me there is so much leg room in the front and the back for tall people. The trunk is bigger than most CRV's. Very quiet and drives so smoothly. Love it!!!! Bought the Premium!!! Worth the extra
