Used 2017 Subaru Forester for Sale in Hanover, MA

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.

This is a great vehicle and we're so glad that we purchased one. We've had a couple of minor things go wrong that should not have such as the drivers side visor starting to squeak loudly. All said we are very happy with this car. On the down side there is now standard technology out there that is not available. Automatic wipers are missing and items like remote start and subaru's safety and security package are extra when Honda includes them both free. But my biggest issue is not the car it's that there is no convenient dealersl or service anywhere near me. The nearest service is 45 minutes away. The next car will have to be available locally.

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.

This car is reliable, sturdy, comfortable and has many safety features. It still looks and drives like new after 2 years . Low maintenance and great gas mileage !

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.

Just bought a new to me Forester and I couldn't be happier. Subaru hasn't let me down yet...this is my 3rd one and I can't imagine driving anything else. It's safe, reliable and sporty!

…. Oh yes - and the Subaru is pretty fab also ;) I have never bought a new car in the US but have been well aware of the challenges and mythology surrounding said endeavor — all of which were quickly confirmed the instant I was pushed through the front doors of two Subaru dealerships - So a couple of weeks ago we broke free from the gravitational pull of the “Atlantic nebula”, took a wide birth around and away from the blackhole better known as the “Quirk-effect” and plotted a course to Planet Subaru. Planet Subaru - It is obvious to us that you value both your employees and customers. Everyone we met in the sales Debt, Dave in finance, the service desk and the customers by the coffee machine … where all simply smiling - chatty and relaxed, and from our perspective that is all that was required. Dale - Beth and I are so pleased with having met and worked Derek and Milo - intelligent, funny, patient, knowledgable and a great sense of asking the right question and the right time ……… and that was just Milo ! Both Derek and Milo are indeed assets to your company. My only complaint is the ridiculous long services intervals as 6000 miles is way too long to wait to drive up to Planet and absorb some more of your positive and relaxed energy. I will be up sooner than my scheduled service decrees - no doubt ! I am not sure what you raison d’être is but … “bloody well done" and keep at it ! Kindest regards and heartfelt thanks. Lawrence, Beth and “Aretha Franklin" ( ….. Beth’s new Subaru)

Full disclosure: My girlfriend owns it, but I drive it a lot. I find the 2017 Forester to be a pretty decent small SUV. I find it comfortable and fairly well-designed. I'm not a huge fan of CVTs but find it has enough pep when I need it. The dash is fairly well-organized and all critical controls are knobs and buttons rather than buried in the touch screen like some cars. A few things could be slightly better organized but these are minor details. The Subaru infotainment system is pretty lacking and the touch screen is buggy sometimes. They're behind the curve on this. But overall it's a decent car even if I'd like it more with a 6 speed manual.

I want to take this opportunity to compliment and recognize two of the extraordinary members of the service team at Planet Subaru: Andy Ryan I have had a number of positive interactions with Andy over the last couple years and every time I come into the undealership he greets me by name and with a warm smile. He is such a pleasure to interact with and one of the many reasons I continue to service my vehicle at Planet. I have never met a more genuine team of service professionals in my life and Andy is a shining example of this. This morning’s visit to Planet was another example of Andy welcoming me to Planet regardless of whether he will be coordinating my vehicle’s service for the day. I really appreciate that and feel so valued for my business with Planet. He is a true gentleman! Allie Webb Allie welcomed me into the undealership this morning for my scheduled 60,000 mile service. She was, as she always is, very welcoming and friendly. I always feel like I am leaving my car in very capable hands. Allie takes the time to clearly explain the details of the service and makes sure I am fully aware of every important detail. Later this morning she contacted me to advise that my driver’s side front tire should be replaced due to a puncture on the sidewall that I was unaware of. She suggested that an alignment be completed as well with the replacement of the tire and also provided a clear service recommendation for fuel injection service. I was so impressed by how knowledgeable Allie was and how accommodating she was with the use of the Passport loaner vehicle. Since purchasing our 2015 Subaru Outback, I have been a fan of Planet Subaru. From Sales to Service, my wife and I have been treated like a valued part of the Planet Subaru family. It is because of the unprecedented level of service from people like Andy and Allie, that we will continue to service our vehicle at Planet and plan to purchase many more Planet Subaru vehicles in the future.

This car has been a good car. It seems to be very reliable. It also has been good in the snow and ice. It also gives good gas mileage.

Today, my wife and I picked up our new car at Planet. This is our fifth Subaru and our third Forester, plus we have only ever had one car at a time. Over the years, I had done business with another area dealership, but was urged by Carolyn N. (a couple of years ago) to give you guys a try. I am very happy that I tried you guys. From Klaire in sales to Dave in finance, every person we encountered was great. You guys are truly unique and I look forward to working with you guys over the years. Thank you.

This car has better quality than the 2012 outback we had. The room is better and the ride is smooth. The car has many more up to date safety features than he out we had.

Joe padula aloud me to rent a car through insurance with no credit card when no one else would. He dealt with the insurance company for me as I had no clue what I was doing. Padula auto did the repairs on my car that had some pretty good damage done to it, and restored it to its former glory! Their customer service is above and beyond. They kept open lines of communication and eased my fears. They did amazing work on my car and in a timely manor. I would recommend them to anyone and I plan on going back to them for all future service for all my automotive needs!

Wanting something all wheel drive naturally leads you to Subaru. If you're looking for something with some off road capabilities but also a steady commuter with some room to spare, the Forester is the sweet spot. The 2019 generation Foresters are great, but they lack the punch of the older turbo options. With the same 250+ HP, 258 lb-ft torque engine in the WRX, the 2.0 L turbo shaves off over 2 seconds from the 0-60 time of the standard 2.5i engine. And it's noticeable. It gets knocked for being paired to CVT but I find it to be smooth and has great throttle response in Sport mode. Off road and in snow it does really well and lives up to the hype. A lot of reviews don't consider the Forester to be that stylish on the exterior, but I think that's ultimately a matter of preference. I find the exterior to be simple but muscular with the XT having a meaner front end. Inside there are some good upgrades which finally make the Forester feel a bit more luxury including leather seats and accents, a quieter interior and a decent sound system. The Harmon/Kardon sound system still leaves a lot to be desired, however. It's very bass heavy without a lot of refinement. Overall the Forester XT with Touring trim offers some nice amenities with still staying true to the rugged nature Subaru is known for. Pros: fun to drive (3 driving modes, paddle shifters), great visibility, great off road capabilities, roomy back seat and trunk, giant sunroof Cons: lower gas mileage, premium fuel recommended, lack of interior refinement, weak infotainment system

By far the absolute BEST car shopping experience I've ever had! No one "attacked" me when I stepped out of my car onto the lot, I was referred to our sales woman by a family member & good friend. This dealership brings a whole new meaning to "car dealership" to me! I will NEVER go anywhere else for a vehicle nor will I send anyone anywhere else. Keep in mind I live 3 minutes from RT 44 Hyundai!!! Those people are NASTY! Hyundai of Plymouth is the definition of an honest car dealership! If you didn't believe there was such a thing.....take the drive! You'll see it first hand! This is the 3rd vehicle we have purchased from the Tufankjian Family....the 2nd one was 2 months ago!!! About Carey, she was an absolute love to work with. My parents worked with her 2 months ago when they were referred here by the other Tufankjian Family Owned Toyota of Braintree (where they purchased their truck a few years ago!). Carey greeted us with a warm smile and brought us right over to desk, offered us coffee, water, and donuts while we talked. She had pulled 3 Sante Fe Sports for me to test drive. After we got some information in the system, we took my favorite one (and the only one I drove!) out on the road. When we got back we discussed how I felt, price, lease vs. finance, and everything in between. We went for the lease...because, well it's 2017 and we lease our phones...so why not lease our vehicles too! Carey got me what we wanted for our trade and didn't think twice about a little extra =)! (Thanks Bruce! I'll think of you when it's below zero before work in the morning!) Carey helped us through some speed bumps and I picked up my new 2017 Sante Fe Sport this afternoon....at 4:30pm. With a FULL TANK OF GAS! (Never picked up a new car from rt 44 with a full tank! Just sayin!!) Which I might add, Carey leaves at 4 on Monday. But she stayed JUST for me <3. That's dedication and honest to goodness care of her customers!!! Don't sell yourself short anymore. If you want to sit down and just be real with someone when you're making a huge decision....go see Carey! Go see Carey Perry! And tell Bruce we said hello as well! ~The Medeiros/Silva Family

Can’t beat the great safety features for long commutes or long trips! This is a great family car or a first car for teenage drivers.

Clay Subaru (and Val in particular) made my car buying experience as easy and enjoyable as I could have ever imagined it would be. I was greated immediately when I walked through the door and was helped every step of the way. Val knew the answers to every question I had and even the ones I didn't. He showed me the 3 Crosstreks I was interested in inside and out and gave me the 101 on Subaru ownership. Once I picked the one I was going to buy, Val made the remaining, sometimes boring parts of the car buying process very easy and pain free. I was in and out without issue and the car was ready in perfect condition right when they said it was supposed to be. Overall I was very happy with Val as a salesman, and Clay Subaru as a whole. I would recommend Clay Subaru to anyone who wants a great car and an easy car-buying experience!

Have owned 2 Volvos and the company lost it's spark. Subaru has that spot in my heart now. From the 5 star crash rating (except front passenger seat is 4 star) to great reliability records and good tech stuff I am thrilled.

Marvin made the entire car buying experience a very pleasant one for my family and myself. He was kind, professional and very easy going. I highly recommend him as a salesman. I have bought many cars and never have had such a great experience. The service department was friendly and helpful as well but it was a very slow process however they were pleasant to deal with.

Excellent vision in all directions from the Forester. We like the no non-sense styling of the Touring 2.5i. Easy to get into and out of which matters if getting a few years on you. Very good gas mileage and handling with excellent performance. The AWD is certainly one of many key selling points. Fit and finish is excellent with very good reliability so far. We think it is a excellent SUV and would definitely purchase another Subaru SUV if needed.

John was great with helping me with my purchase. It was my first time ever that I have dealt with a car dealership and he made it very easy and comfortable for me . I am very pleased with my decision on purchasing from Masteria and have recommended to my friends that if they are looking for a new car to go and see John Dubois !!

Excellent car for safety and performance. A repeat buyer. Subaru has added latest safety features like Blind Spot Monitor, RAB, Land Departure warning and Excelent Sound System.

After a bad/weird experience at Cityside Subaru in Belmont--where we could not get actual numbers and they were blatantly condescending about our budget--the team at Clay helped us to easily secure a 2018 CrossTrek for our desired price. It was so easy, because one of their online sales associates, Allison Lejeune, was willing to send ACTUAL quotes with the numbers broken down and we negotiated over email before coming to the store and got a great deal ahead of time thanks to their sales manager Keith Miranda. This is KEY! No one seems to give real numbers and they wait for you to low ball, play, and go back and forth but still screw you over. When we arrived with the online deal, salesman Will Krasinki swiftly helped us to secure the deal that was already negotiated, so there were no games and no take-backs. The good times kept rolling on Sunday when we went in to sign all of the paperwork with Joseph Allain, who was incredibly knowledgeable and data-driven. He helped us to understand all of the variables and did not over-push add-ons, which is actually our style: we are more willing to sign up for extra programs etc if it is explained logically and not pushed. He hooked us up with the Luxcare for free. He worked swiftly but was very patient and elaborated clearly when we asked him to. We are so delighted to pick up our CrossTrek tomorrow, they beat Cityside and Ira and were pleasant and transparent along the way. We're excited to be in the Subaru family :) Thanks guys!

This car has meet all my needs. I feel good driving this car. I feel safe!It has all the great features in it. It is a very comfortable car to drive.

before I purchased my crosstrek, I researched several models and prices. I searched high and low for a dealership that would provide me with personal experience without ripping me off or treating me like just another customer. I was told by several other dealerships that my cost would be $3000 more and it would be 10 weeks to get the color that I wanted. Not to mention, some other places were very rude. When I came to Clay Subaru, I was immediately treated respectfully and I felt important to every single person there. Franco has a very down-to-earth personality and kept me updated each step of the way. Within a week, he secured the exact model and color that I was looking for. He was just excited about finding it as I was. A couple days later, I drove off the lot with my beautiful new car and saved a money. I would definitely go back to Clay Subaru and will continue to recommend prospective Subaru owners to go there first. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. 10 Stars!

Great SUV for a modest investment! I'm getting an average of 24 mpg and 28 on highway trips. The noise level is low and the comfort is high. I have almost 25000 miles and have not experienced any issues. Buy this car if you want value and reliability!

We met Tony last year when I was ready to trade in my Nissan Sentra for a Subaru. We simultaneously had a horrible experience with the Service Dpt (namely, Edwin) with my husband's car, but Tony managed to keep us as Clay customers. He was patient and accessible and explained everything. He pushed and helped get us a great deal on my 2018 Forester. He made sure we were comfortable and walked away happy. 6 months later, when my husband unexpectedly had to retire his Legacy, we came back to Tony. After a couple emails, he told us to come in. We had no idea we'd end up walking away with anything that day, much less a leased 2018 Impreza. Tony came through for us once again. Amazing customer service. The Impreza has been great so far, but we're planning on buying an Ascent in 3 years when the lease is up. We're definitely going back to Tony and recommending him to friends and family members for their next Subaru purchase.

First thing I notices when driving this vehicle was how easy it is to see out of! The windshield and the way you're seated gives the ultimate view of the road which I love. The ride is exceptionally smooth and the car looks stellar! Highly recommend!

Exceptional service,great personality from two staff member Mike Brooks and Joseph Alain made my decision so much easier to buy my second Forester from Clay Subaru. Thanks guys 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

This car met all of our needs. It has plenty of leg room, wide opening doors, back up camera and heated seats. It also has the least number of blind spots I've ever had in a vehicle. I also feel safer in my Forester then I have in any other car I've owned. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new car/small SUV.

Nice job - one thing to point out - my car was ready for some time and it was parked outside - but I was not called upon and pay the bill and informed car was ready until after sometime (when I pointed out) - it was working day Wednesday morning and I was there since 8:20 am for an oil change only and I left at 9:55 am - that was a long time for oil change visit - need improvement in this area.

Beautiful, efficient, handles well in all types of traffic. Have taken on 2 lengthy road trips so far and just love it! Easy packing hatch back holds luggage and extras for 3 weeks on the road. traveling caravan style with 3 other vehicles, my Forester voted most comfortable by all passengers and alternate drivers. I rarely need a comfort stop because adjustable seats make every drive like traveling in a lounge chair.

Had a great service experience! Everything went like you dreamed but never get… Except for Prime Toyota. From the automatic drive in door, the exceptional staff, to an awesome waiting area, free donuts and beverages, WI-FI, movies to a smooth quick out prossing, I almost wanted to stay. Thanks for the great serving of my van. It feels great on the way home, it’s HAPPY.

It has all the imenities I was looking for. Plus many more. It has a lot of leg room. Storage by the spare tire. I love the way the suv looks.

Excellent customer service. I had a bad credit but due to hard work from salesman like Brian and Greg I was able to get a brand new Honda 2018. I would recommend that dealership for people who don???t really have credit or have a bad one because they have the contacts to help you out. Ooo yes i got my brand new car without a co-signer....🙏🏿🔥🔥👌🏿 Thank Brian and all the team at Honda Kelly Lynn .

This SUV is a great vehicle for the money, and is extremely comfortable on long road trips. It has a smooth ride with ample power for around town use. I would have preferred an analog fuel gauge instead of the digital one.

Let me start by saying I worked at a dealership in sales for 6 years. I have also been in sales for over 20 years. While I may be ???more patient??? than most as a result, I also have the keen ability to smell bullsh*t from a mile away, and i have no issue calling it. That said, this was one of the best experiences Ive had. I was referred to Kelly, and specifically James Hudson. While he id now a manager and doesn???t primarily sell cars, he greeted me at the door upon arrival. Having had some communication as to what I wanted he had prepared figures, and immediately brought me to see the cars we had loosely discussed. He appointed Luis to introduce the car to me and take a test drive. Luis was excellent. He knew the product inside and out and asked if I preferred he explain or simply drive. Acter test driving What I felt I wanted in the right color mind you, I made a comment about how my only criticism was the lack of power driver seat. He said there was in the 1 step up trim, (not a lot more money) and also I would gain better wheels, spoiler, better stereo, dual exhaust, and fog lights. (A lot more car for not a lot more money). He immediately went to fetch that trim in my chosen color (which btw, was on another lot which I wasnt aware of until later since he did it to effortlessly). Luis relayed to James my selection and upon identifying my concern with spending more money (not much but more none the less), James seamlessly showed me multiple other options that would get me all I wanted but for less money through a few other models. I brought myself back to my ultimate selection and we closed on it. Zero intention of making a purchase the same day but honestly, what more could I ask? And EXCELLENT experience, zero pain, the ultimate service, all within dollars of what we had discussed (mind you with WAY more in options than I originally expected). Finance: Tony had ALL paperwork prepared flawlessly, and within a few minutes we had concluded purchasing a new car. The ???finance office nightmares??? were not written here. He too was perfect. To ice the cake: the general manager Joe G met with me personally when I requested to see him and commend his staff. He glowed about them, and clearly took pride in how much effort he puts into the experience at Kelly. Worthy of note, the General SALES manager, was dressed for service, and out in the svce dept helping them since I was told they had been innundated with business lately. My car was delivered to me at my choice of location the next day clean, full of gas. Again better than expected All in all, i drover over 50 miles, 1 hour and 15 minutes to do business here on a referral. It is crystal clear as to why, and if I were to purchase another Honda, I wouldn???t even hesitate a second to go back.

A comfortable ride, an elevated seating position, standard all-wheel drive, and available state-of-the-art safety technology. Excellent fuel economy. Exceptional acceleration thanks to sequential fuel injection. Best AWD system developed so far.

Rich was a nice guy and was very laid back. We are in the process of buying and he did not pressure us in any way.

I like the comfort and the visibility of this car. All who have ridden in it feel that it’s comfortable too. Love the eyesight package which gives warnings regarding blind spots and so forth. Find it very easy to parallel park. My only complaint is that the audio controls aren’t intuitive to use, at least for me.
