Used Subaru Ascent for Sale in Fort Walton Beach, FL

The car is powerful, handles really well. Having owned five Subarus, I expected nothing less. That said, after six months, several annoying trais have emerged, which I consider to be game changers:1) dumb auto locking doors drive me nuts. They have been set, to supposedly unlock all doors when driver's door is opened. Only half the time, rear doors remain locked. 2)The radio can not be turned off. Consequently, unless you just leave it on, and turn volume to zero, you are confronted with scresming radio, seconds after you start the car. 3) interlock on tranny is sorely screwed. If you accidentally take it out of park before starting, you are screwed for about five minutes, begging it to start. Just returning to park doesn't work. Gotta tirn off ignition (another joke), open and close doors, wait for it to actually go off, then try to restart. 4) oh screw it, suffice to say, electronics are half baked. THEN, there is a flap to hide the trailer hitch. If you ever take it off, good luck ever getting it safely re attached. Finally (I hope) the glove box is a joke. Think it might be a good car in a year or two.

I was there to look at Subaru Outback 2013 certified vehicle. Gary Chew and Andreas there went above and beyond to help me get a good deal. They were very friendly and accommodating and foremost not pushy at al. Andreas was quick to pull out the car i wanted to see and help me test drive every vehicle i liked while Gary was more in to getting me good deal. I wish them luck in their future endeavor. Thanks,

Purchased the Ascent Touring edition 2 weeks ago, after test driving the Audi Q7, VW Atlas, and Volvo XC 90 (and having had the latter 2 models as recent rental cars as well). We liked the Subaru just as much as the Audi and Volvo in spite it being a dramatically less expensive car. Visbility is better than its peers. The 7-seat layout with 2 second-row captain's chairs fits our family perfectly; usually there are 4 of us +/- a large dog, and then sometimes some soccer kids or friends join us as well. The interior on the Touring is very attractive, first and second-row seating are extremely comfortable (the 2nd row much plusher than the Atlas), and the center stack and instrumentation is intuitive and pleasant to use. The car is very feature-rich for the price. The moonroof is huge and beautiful. Sometimes I feel like my head is near the top of most cars, but the Ascent has a ton of headroom. Bluetooth integration is great, and both the Bluetooth and the seat memory are very well-designed for two-driver families. The 2.4L engine is way peppier than I would have expected; it's not quite as powerful as the 3.6L version of the Q7, but it is more-than-sufficient; much better than my old Toyota Sienna. It's fun to drive and it feels like a luxury car. I'm happy every time I get to drive it. And because Subaru is so reliable, we were able to buy a manufacturer's extension to the standard 3/36,000 warranty to take it up to 10 years/100,000 miles (excluding wear-and-tear items like breaks and rotating electrical) for only $3,700 more.

Our experience at Austin Subaru was amazing, as always. This time they really went above & beyond. Our Subaru Outback had started leaking unexpectedly & saturated the driver's side of the car. We called over the weekend & spoke to a manager who was SO helpful & friendly & got us in the next day. They took their time finding the (very difficult to find) leak & repaired it for us & our Outback is like new again. We are SO appreciative!!! -Brian & Christy

Bought this car in November 2018. My best ever car purchase period. Excellent over all package form Subaru. Only one controlnI I wish the Ascent had was the Radio off button.

Very nice lobby, and the customer service was fabulous!!

Has a very comfortable ride. Sets up high enough to give you great visibility. Interior has less road noise than others. Good gas mileage for the size of the car and all wheel drive

The Ascent met all my needs in regards to safety features, spacious interior, and additional seating. The turbocharged 2.4 L engine and suspension provides a smooth and fast ride.

I recently bought a used 328i BMW from this dealership. The salesman gave me a really fair deal without any of the hassle you normally go thru at other dealerships. He did exactly as promised, was totally professional and made my experience there unlike any auto dealer. I would highly recommend this dealership to anyone simply because of his friendly and honest professionalism. If your buying a used car, you really need to go here!!

It was time for something bigger than my Tacoma, which I LOVED. A friend of mine had just bought her new Ascent so I was intrigued. She has a family like mine and loves her Ascent, it is easy to see why after owning mine for the last month. I couldn't be happier, great car! Highly recommend!

I experienced friendly service and good follow from at this dealer. Even though I have not purchased the vehicle yet... I will be back soon.

Price: Very fair. Although there was no real negotiation, I was happy given that the initial price was more than fair for what I was buying. The final cost before fees was $12,995 and after fees was $14,650. Service: I had my mechanic inspect my 2012 Ford Mustang V6 convertible, and he found it to be a high quality car. Nicky was kind enough to let us test drive it a second time at closing time, and allowed me a few days to secure financing with my credit union with only a verbal agreement and a deposit to purchase. Grade A service. Dealership setup: I recommend researching your potential car(s) and setting an appointment before visiting, because I test drove with a different salesman before closing the deal with Nicky. I even walked off the lot before coming back five minutes later to place a deposit. It may be a confusing setup to a casual walk-up impulse buyer. Overall experience: Although I am generally skeptical of non-affiliated used car dealerships, Auto Avenues did a fine job and my mechanic approved of my purchase. Hopefully the car lasts long with no major issues, but I’d be happy to return again if the car lasts.

The Subaru Ascent is a pleasant surprise, even though all of the reviews I read about it were positive. It's a very comfortable car, and to me drives more like a car than an SUV. I was a Honda owner previously (Pilot, Accord), and thought that I would end up with another Pilot, but the Ascent blew me away. Great features for the price, comfortable seating, and plenty of room in the back for the kids and dogs. The controls and technology are exactly what I wanted - comprehensive, yet easy to operate (and reach). Great design. Plenty of USB ports for the kids. Very happy with the decision to buy, and love this car so far. The only shortcoming so far is the acceleration (where you can feel that this is a turbo 4-cylinder), but the Ascent does get up to cruising speed relatively quickly - and the ride is so comfortable I have to remind myself to slow down because I'm going faster than it feels!

I went to Automotive Avenues on the Saturday during Memorial Day Weekend 2018. The dealership was the second out of three that I had planned to visit that day. I had picked out selected GMC Acadias at different dealerships that I wanted to test drive. I wanted to look at and test drive two GMC Acadias at Automotive Avenues. I was nervous embarking upon this car buying journey since it had been 15 years since I purchased a new vehicle and that previous car buying experience was nerve racking. Plus, I was still so attached to my 2003 Chevy Suburban, but my beloved ???Bertha??? was falling apart. Hence, it was really past time to buy a new car. My Sales Consultant at Automotive Avenues was Greg Marotti. He was wonderful! I found him to be kind, straight-forward, helpful and informative. He was patient when explaining to me the inner workings of the vehicle and was not annoyed with the numerous questions I had about the vehicles I test drove. He understood that buying a car was a major purchase for me and he took his time to make me feel comfortable by giving me the time I needed to test drive both vehicles, look them over carefully and write down copious notes about the vehicles. The only reason I did not purchase a vehicle from Automotive Avenues is that I found a newer model for a great deal at the third dealership I visited that day. Buying a truck from a different dealership was a difficult decision for me because I really appreciated the ???honest??? vibes I received from Greg and would???ve liked him to have made the sale. I felt as though Greg really appreciated my business. Hands down Greg was the BEST sales professional I interacted with that day. I would definitely recommend Greg as a sales consultant at Automotive Avenues. Please request him when you go to Automotive Avenues. You won???t be sorry that you did.

This car meets all of my needs. Compared to similar vehicles I test drove this one stood out the most. The overall style, comfort, safety features, and affordablity can't be beat.

This morning I drove from Lakewood, in the Denver metro area, to Colorado Springs in my '08 Scion tC to check out the 2016 Scion tC for sale at Auto Source. Auto Source is a small independent outfit tucked away on 8th Ave, an unpresumptuous location packed with a wide variety of cars. I'd been in contact with Isaiah, who was conscientious, professional, accommodating, and informative, and he had the car ready when I arrived. A short conversation, a quick scan of my driver's license, and I was out on the road checking out the '16 tC on my own. It had 4700 miles and handled like the practically new car that it was. I was satisfied as to its condition and price, and Isaiah took me through the buying process quickly and easily, as did Dan, the manager. Everything was explained in detail and I signed here, here, and here several times. It took a total of about 1 1/2 hours, and I was out the door. Totally unpressured event, and the price was unbeatable. I would be happy to recommend this place to all my friends.

We just bought the Ascent a week ago but it has already proved to be a very versatile and family-friendly SUV. Our kids outgrew the passenger cabin in our Forester so the Ascent was a great next step for us because we love Subaru's reliability and ability to go almost anywhere. Our 16, 14, and 12 year old fit very well in the Ascent with room to spare.

While I didn't buy a car from them (I live in PA, 365 miles away) I found their website extremely informative. I am researching Subarus and the amount of information Plant Subaru provides on its site is absolutely amazing. I learned a great deal that helped me decide which model I wanted (Forester). I wish I lived closer - I'd buy from them in a heartbeat! Based on their website alone I give them 5 stars! I can't imagine how good the actual visit must be.

I drove home and it was amazing. The vehicle rode so smooth and it was a nice ride back home. I am so glad that I went to speak with Pamela, she helped me so much. She was patient and very nice to us.

I just bought a 2014 Subaru brz. at this dealership. They had a great price and have a very honest account of the vehicles service history, which is why it was such as bargain. I bought it and absolutely love it. The staff were great, low key. They knew all about the car. Financing was painless.

After two Outbacks we sized up to Ascent. So far, great, as we have only had it a few days. The Subaru reputation for reliability, style, handling, comfort and details is why we keep coming back.

My husband and I bought a home and needed a vehicle that was large enough for us, a German Shepherd and two cats to drive cross country. After looking at many different SUVS, we decided the Subaru Outback was perfect for our needs. We went to Planet Subaru in Hanover MA and we were pleasantly surprised by the warm greeting from one of their employees and two dogs which we thought was great. We were then introduced to our salesman Joe. He sat down with us and listened to our needs. We were not only looking for a safe, efficient and comforting vehicle, we wanted a fair price. I believe that a fair price is one that is not only good for us but for the dealership. Our salesman Joe showed us a Subaru Outback that was in the showroom which my husband and I were already drawn to. After looking over the vehicle, my husband went on a test drive with Joe. I decided to stay back and look at their huge amount of inventory. We wanted a certain color and features that were important to us. We wanted convenience features such as comfortable seats that were power adjustable, features that were ergonomically designed, a good stereo system, enough room for our long cross country trip with our pets and enough room that we didn't feel crammed. The Outback we decided on had everything we wanted in a new SUV. We wanted an outstanding AWD system as we were moving to the Northwest where weather and road conditions were different than Massachusetts. We were very pleased with our experience at Planet Subaru. Our salesman Joe and our finance manager Scott listened to our wants and needs and never were pushy. We were grateful for all of the effort Scott put in to get us a low interest rate and a preowned certification. We drove cross country and we were very pleased with the performance, comfort and safety features. We both are very satisfied with our experience at Planet Subaru. One of the biggest things that made us buy from them was their approach to a vehicle buying process. We never felt that anyone was pushy with us or made us feel like if we didn't buy the Outback that day, we weren't going to get the same deal. I hope this review will help others with their decision to purchase their next vehicle from a Planet Subaru.

While I have only owned the Asent since January I have been impressive. This replaces my 2002 Toyota 4-Runner. I compared to Highlander but one test drive in the Acent and I was impressed. Adaptive cruise control is amazing. The dealership kept selling out of the mid-level trim so bought the Touring model off the showroom floor. I have bad back and these seat are wonderful. Seat have both heat and a/c. Yes cooling front seat (I live in Florida). Has power when you need it. Gas mileage is in 20 mpg range and great is regular gas. I looked at Audi Q5 but was out of my price range and this Ascent has all the same bells and whistles for $10k less. All the folk that have Subarus say I will be very happy with reliability. Hope it will be good as my 4Runner was!!

The buying experience was pretty easy. Susie was really easy to work with. Noticed a couple minor things about vehicle after purchase so hopefully they'll take care of it quickly. Overall experience was satisfactory.

This car is amazing and so much fun to drive. Too many features to name here. Can’t even pick a favorite. For a three row seater it handles like a sedan but has room room galore. The third row is so comfortable and has its own vents. Cup holders everywhere. This is a must drive. You will be blown away. Subaru has thought of everything

I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. I went in because of an email about some trade in deals. I left with a brand new car. Chris M was able to get me a deal that I absolutely could not pass up. He was friendly and able to answer all of my questions. I previously used Loveland Ford for all of my service needs, but after buying a car from them, will likely never go anywhere else to buy a car either. Great place! I told Chris I would write a haiku to show my appreciation. Came to see options | Found the deal of a lifetime | Loveland Ford is great!

The only reason I didn’t get this car was because it hasn’t been on the market long. I’ve had a past purchase of a new model jeep in the past and ran into all sorts of issues. So I did lease an Acadia. I can’t wait for the lease of my vehicle to be up though because by then it will have been on the market for longer and I will Definitely will get the ascent!

I was driving across country and blew a gasket 50 miles outside of SLC at 2:30 in the morning. The very next day I began my quest on Cars.com to find my next vehicle. I came across some excellent inventory and made my way to this store. Overall it was a great experience. The entire staff made me feel at ease and were trustworthy. The owner was highly knowledgeable about the car market and the nuances of various models. In all they were just really easy to work with, I would definitely recommend this dealer!

The 2019 Touring Ascent has it all. Comfort, reliability, technology. Compared to other vehicles in its class, the Subaru comes out on top. Test drive one, but only if you plan to fall in love with the ride.

The Ascent is a size upgrade in Subaru's offering that we have been waiting for. There isn't a thing I don't like about it. Love it!

My in-laws referred me to NW Group and Eli met with me at the warehouse within minutes of my calling him when I was in Portland on a weekend. He answered questions as well as offering more information on the models that we were considering (Outback vs Forester). I felt no pressure at all and when I was back with my family several weeks later, we looked at and drove several cars. We unanimously voted for the 2015 Forester. The price was amazing and he even threw in a tow package and fog lights that I said that I desired and he had them both installed within days! We love the car and appreciate so much that it was such a smooth and easy transaction.

I currently own two Subaru models. A 2016 Forester and about 3 days now a brand new 2019 Ascent premium. The only problem that needs to addressed on both cars is muddy road conditions. These cars are mud collectors. The undercarriage needs to be smooth with added mud guards to protect the brakes. Alloy rims should not be so deep inside. The Forester will hold mud in the rims making them go out of balance. Mud will also get under the lower door seals. When it feezes opening the door damages the seals. And they are very expensive to replace. Mud collects under the rear bumper. Wheel wells also. The Ascent is not as bad but mud still gets under the door seals. For an off road capable car this should not be happening.
