New and used 2025 Subaru Ascent for sale near Derby, CO

Quick responses to questions and a willingness to work with me to find a workable solution.

We bought this because of the great experience that we have had with a 2020 Forester Touring and expect this car to be solid reliable as well. BUT - I am on my second example of this vehicle, in Onyx Touring trim, because the first one delivered to me had a serious internal engine defect that was causing a plume of oil smoke occasionally at startup. Subaru finally decided after a month that they would replace the original vehicle. This defect is not typical, as far as I can tell. Aside from that, the acceleration is quite good, even though the throttle is very touchy at take off. By the way, you CAN get 20 mpg or so out of it if you are careful, but expect only about 18.5 miles to the gallon on average if you have a heavy foot, because spooling up the turbo makes it suck fuel like a dragster. The car has a quality feel to it and is comfortable and quiet. The digital rearview mirror is a plus if you carry a lot of cargo because it displays the rear camera image instead of a convention mirror. The front seats are very supportive and have a lumbar support with both vertical and depth adjustment. The rear captain seats are excellent. The Ascent couples the Driver Monitoring System with the Lane Centering System, which will cause disabling of lane centering if the Driver Monitor System fails to recognize a driver. This is the only real irritation that I have with the driver assist functions. To be frank, I have seen more features on other vehicles in this price class, like, specifically, power folding third row seats and power steering column adjustments, which aren't even available on an Ascent, but overlooked that in favor of the expected durability. Since we already own the 2020 Forester, we have become accustomed to the Subaru quirks, like a poor user interface for the infotainment system, which we bypass by using Apple Car Play, and the persistent seatbelt alarms that are somewhat akin to riding around with an overprotective mother, but there are ways around that. Be aware that the oil change interval for the 2.5 litre turbo engine is only 6000 miles and Subaru recommends synthetic motor oil as well, so maintenance costs will probably be higher than other vehicles.

This is the third car I’ve bought from Cliff. Always helpful and honest. He does not pressure you in any way. Very pleasant guy.

We purchased a car from Mike Shaw Subaru on 11/11/2024. A young man by the name of “Fred” Fredheric Manosa helped us. What a wonderful person, very pleasant to be around went above and beyond to make us happy. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and family and Mike Shaw Subaru

I recently had the pleasure of working with Brandon Vigil a sales representative at Mike Shaw Subaru His knowledge, professionalism, and commitment to customer satisfaction made the car buying process both efficient and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Brandon to anyone seeking a seamless and positive automotive experience. Thanks Brandon!

Patient sales service for long distance (Internet) purchase. Salesman arranged for transportation from hotel and vehicle was parked out front when we arrived for pickup.

the team at auto nation Subaru is absolutely fantastic. Cornelius, Johnathan,and Liam were fantastic! They helped me and my husband to get out from under terrible loans and treated us like close friends. The whole team worked hard to find us a good deal and we left very happy. No weird banks, no shady car trades. It was seriously one of the best experiences at a dealership I've ever had.
