Used Subaru Forester for Sale in Gilbert, AZ

My 1st Forester is a 2009 turbocharged model which is still going strong with 110,000 miles. The newer Foresters offer safety and convenience features mine doesn't have so I decided to upgrade. The 2019 Forester no longer offers the turbocharged version so I opted for a certified pre-owned 2018 XT Touring which has a turbocharger. I love the vehicle but because the turbo is no longer available, the used turbo versions have become quite pricey. I am keeping the old one for hauling dogs, lawn equipment and towing my utility trailer. The new one will be just for people for now. The vehicle is just the right size. I am 6'4" and would appreciate a little more leg room and thigh support but the Forester is as comfortable as any other small SUV I checked. There is plenty of headroom. The turbo does require premium fuel and has a lower mileage rating. With the turbo and sports tuned suspension, it is a fun vehicle to drive and worth the money to me. In over 10 years, the older one left me stranded only once when a drive belt broke after 100,000 miles. Based on reviews, I expect the same reliability from the newer one.

Adora Fryant was truly exceptional. I know that the expectation is that a salesperson will receive perfect 10s, and I have given such high scores in the past, but Adora is the first one which I actually feel is deserving of such high marks and praise. Adora was incredibly knowledgeable about the entire line of Audi vehicles. I had initially gone in to look at the A6/A7. After that initial session, I talked with her again and she shared about the recent updates to the A4 and that it might be a better fit for what I was looking for. Eventually, she helped me decide on the S4 and the particular options that would be important and relevant to me. She was always available to provide info and help, both over the phone and in person. I have subsequently leaned on her knowledge in looking at Audis for my wife. I would happily recommend her to any friend or family member who was considering an Audi. If I could rate her higher than a 10 on the given scale, I would. Adora Fryant, Chris Curtin, and Jack Serena were very easy to work with on negotiating the deal and financing. Of the ~10 dealerships that I contacted to obtain a quote, the team at Audi Chandler was the most competitive. In addition, they made sure that the financing available (including the Summer of Audi incentives) was as good as the other financing options I was looking at through our credit union. This consideration saved me the time and effort of needing to go through that process and allowing me to close the deal sooner.

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.

We bought a used Chevrolet Suburban from Goldies a few months ago. Within days there were several little problems that started coming up. We took care of the first couple that were easy fixes (i.e. brake light that was out), but they just kept coming up, so we finally called the dealer and listed off the many problems that had cropped up in just the first couple weeks of us owning the car. They told us to take the car to a mechanic we trusted and have it looked over and everything fixed, and then they would cover the cost of all the repairs. We did just that and when we went to pick it up after the repairs, the shop said that Goldies had already paid the bill in full. Since then we haven't had a single problem and have taken the suburban on two long trips. We are grateful that Goldies stood behind the vehicle they sold us and for that reason, we would recommend them to anyone looking to buy a car.

This car is perfect for me. It combines comfort, reliability, styling and exceptional performance on all types of roads. I have the Touring turbo model which is very quick off the line and hustles down the road easily when prodded. Combine all of that with the practicality of an SUV and you can understand why I am in love with it. I prefer to drive it over my other car (which I also love), a 3 series BMW, because it is as quick but much more versatile.

Just returned home from Camelback Toyota in Phoenix with another purchase, this time a used car. The car wasn't my first choice, nor my 3rd. but since it was for a college daughter to use far away from home, her wants & desires were also important. And, it turns out, I am very happy with the result. To be clear, I don't like salesmen. But I trust John DeArmond and really feel that he, and the dealership, puts my interests first. Obviously there is a bottom line. Yet, I also feel like I got a pretty good deal. This is the second vehicle we purchased from him and Camelback Toyota. The first was a new car 5 years ago. Which @ 80,000 miles now has still had NO problems and still drives like a dream. Not only was the sale an excellent experience, but the AFTER sale experience has been outstanding. John has kept in touch, literally for years, genuinely concerned that our experience was continuing to be nothing but the best. He's always been available for questions and advice regarding our purchase and other car related information. For basic tune-up stuff we have a nearby shop we like to go to. But I when we have a dealer specific thing to be done to our car, such as the 50,000 or 75,000 check, we go to the dealer. This dealer. We always feel helped and never used. So when we decided to replace the 20 year old car our girl was driving, he was the first thought of where to turn. Oh, we checked out Cars.com and the rental car companies, but our first choice was to call John. And I'm glad we did. The car buying experience can be frustrating. I've purchase at least 20 cars in my lifetime, both new and used, and really love just how painless and easy these guys make the process. Truly no pressure. Yes, they are a business, and so yes, they want you to buy a car, preferably from them. But, it's really about choices. MY choices. MY preferences, and what they can do to HELP me in fulfilling them. We gave John our parameters a couple of weeks ago and he came up with several choices that day. Spent several hours with him last week going through and driving different cars before finally deciding on a choice vehicle. We put a hold on it and when our college girl was home on spring break a last Sunday, we had her try them out. But, LOL, it turned out she liked something completely different. However, it was no problem for these guys, probably used to people changing their minds. Did I spend more than if I'd bought from an individual? Well... yes and no. Yes I paid at or below the "blue book" price. But I am also sure, and comfortable in the knowledge that this vehicle doesn't have any major problems. Nor is it likely to have any "minor" ones any time soon. And.. paying slightly more than the "suggested retail price" we were able to include an extended warranty that will take care of any problems for several years to come. Did they make a profit. Sure. But I definitely also got a deal. I'm happy, spouse is happy, child's happy. So, I've got another happy car purchase, and will be calling him again, probably in another 5 years. Because, and this is important, they're not in this business for just one sale, they're in it for the long run.

Great car, but battery died after 6 months and Bloomington Subaru didn't make it easy to get it replaced. This is a known issue with Foresters.

After months trying to get my landcruiser repaired at a local shop, 1 week with the guys at camelback had my truck running great. They have the specialized knowledge needed for my 1992 fj80. Thanks for truly being experts in your field.

I want to start out with, I hate the stress of buying cars. After looking across the Country for a 2015 Passat TDI in Titanium Beige with beige interior and finding only 6 or 7 available, I flew from East Tennessee to Phoenix to purchase the car. I made the purchase through USAA car buying service. I contacted Jermel Parson, Sales Rep. He was so helpful. We made arrangements on line and on the phone. He picked me up at the airport. Jermel is professional, patient, friendly, and helpful. I would deal with him again. I drove 1850 miles home over the next 2 days. The car was like a new car. Of course, it only had 22,000 miles on it. That is the main reason we travelled to Camelback VW to buy the car. It had the lowest miles we could find a that time, at the best price. The vehicle was as described. My car wash guy remarked it looked like a brand new car. More importantly, my wife loves it. Whew! Jarvis Newman, Business Manager, completed the deal and very patiently, guided me through the process. Jarvis was professional, courteous, and friendly. He took the time to go over every part of the transaction and answer all of my questions. I'd been traveling since almost midnight and I was more than a little worn out. That's when I get a little goofy and my senseless humor rears up. Jarvis suffered through in good humor and we completed the deal. I feel Jarvis went beyond the average requirements and really took care to help us come to a mutually beneficial transaction. This was one of the best major purchase encounters I have experienced. Thank you Jermel and Jarvis for all you did. Keep smiling, Mike

I tried ordering my 2017 TRD PRO from Big Two and after months of being strung along on a fictitious wait list, decided to call Camelback Toyota. From my first phone conversation with Ian Grundstrom I had 100% confidence that if I put down a deposit he would take care of me. Richie Davidson called me back to and offered a very fair price on the Truck especially due to the demand and took my deposit over the phone. Most dealers were offering these PRO's over $50K for months and the price I paid was very fair in comparison. The truck was supposed to deliver in the first couple of weeks in July and it even arrived early. Both of these gentleman did an excellent job keeping me up to date on the status and production of the Truck and I honestly could not be happier with my purchase! They even had patience with me toward the end when I started to get cold feet. This is our 2nd Camelback Toyota and we would highly recommend them for any of your Toyota needs!!!

It is awesome! The ammenities are awesome. This car exceeds all of our expectations. Best decision we have made in a kobg time. Would recommend this model, most definitely.

Had to tow my 2007 Subaru Legacy car in for an extensive repair. Never met the Service writer before. I had the AutoNation extended warranty so he had to coordinate the repair approval process with them. He called me when my car arrived (2 days prior to my scheduled appointment). He worked on my car ahead of my appointment (1 day early). They fixed it and was able to get the car back early. Was extremely knowledgeable and professional when we came to get the car. Would absolutely recommend AutoNation Subrau with no doubt they are competent, caring, go the extra mile Service Dept team!

I like this vehicle except for the engine shutting off when stopped. it does have an override switch, but if I forget to set it the engine will automatically shut off. that's the only thing I don't like about this car.

30,000 mile checkup. 1.5 hrs. Excellent customer care. Fair prices on parts and labor. Car washed before returned to me.

I like all the safety features. That's what sold me on the car. And it is excellent for the height challenged people. Very comfortable and easy infotainment center.

Customer service was excellent- courteous, professional. Did an excellent job w/ repairs. I feel that the staff is honest and has the customer's best interest in mind.

This Is our 2nd Forester it is awesome has exceeded all expectations drives well has amazing safety features perfect size highly recommend to everyone you will not be disappointed

The service dept. at AutoNation Subaru in North Scottsdale is wonderful! They are honest and diligent! However, they have gotten so busy, they need to expand their service dept. because sometimes the wait can be longer than anticipated.

The best example of why I love this car: passing all the stuck in the snow giant four wheel drive trucks in the parking lot at work to easily park and leave as well. Bravo Subaru

I have used the Scdl. Subaru service dept. since I have gotten my Subie! I have found that they have always been truthful and helpful---especially Asst. Svc. Mgr. Garry Gonce! I also appreciate that they are open on Saturdays. My only complaint is that they should have built a larger building/lot when they moved to FLW---they are really cramped in this location & now there are no empty lots to expand.

The 2019 Subaru Forester fits my 6'5.5" 15 year old son, and there's spare head room for when he grows taller. I researched multiple vehicles. This one had the room, gas mileage, and most of the creature comforts I was looking for. I also has great pickup, responsive handling, and a smooth ride. It's much smoother than my 2017 Mazda CX-5 (a lead butt).

Always a good experience. Eldon knows who I am and knows my Outback. I don't know how he keeps it all straight with so many customers, but he does. Thanks for everything, Eldon!

My tire pressure light was on and I called if I could get appt. The gal on the phone was very kind and helpful when I went in. I went right in, they found that there was a nail in the tire. The service rep was thoughtful and asked if I wanted it fixed and it wouldn't cost anything. He finished in a very short time. It was easy. Love it!

I loved the look of the Forester. I also liked the way it drove. I had to not get the Forester because when you fold down the back seats there is about a six inch hump . This as going to cause problems hauling items. There was also a good bit of space between the front seat and the folded down seats even if you moved the front seats all the way back.

I brought my car in for routine service. They let me know what service was under warranty and were honest about the condition of my brakes. Overall great service and attention to detail. On another note, I watched as they provided excellent customer service for other clients and knew many of them by name.

Solid and reliable car. You can take this car anywhere, whether up to the mountains or off the beaten path. Its comfortable and named CCR small SUV champion. It succeeds by focusing on the fundamentals with a space-efficient design, large windows, and big square doors. The result is the easiest access and the best view out of almost any vehicle tested. It also has one of the roomiest rear seats with copious amounts of head and leg room. It adapts various fuel-efficient technologies, including replacing the antiquated four-speed automatic transmission with a new continuously variable transmission (CVT), the Forester delivers quicker acceleration, as well as a class-leading 26 mpg overall and 35 mpg on the highway in our tests making it a solid adventure SUV or commuter.

So my wife and I decided our 18-year old BMW wagon was ready to be passed down and we had to replace it. Then our Small SUV broke down and we had to look at another car at the same time. We were looking to buy/lease two new cars. We were hoping for a BOGO, but couldn't find one. A friend recommended we speak with Craig Rusin. We went to BMW because our prior experience was 18-years great. When I arrived I asked for Craig and, lo and behold, I was talking with him. I explained I wanted to replace my SUV and possibly my wagon. He asked a few questions and we agreed to look at the X5 and the X3. Within 10 minutes we were in a parking lot test driving the X3. Craig's product knowledge made me feel like I was at The Phoenix Car Show which I attend each November. He explained the "Hold" feature and the benefit in traffic. Craig sat in the back seat and asked if he looked cramped. When I said "No," he replied, "and I am six-four!" I test drove the car on roads I drive every day so I could compare with my current cars. He sat quietly while I assessed the cabin's sounds and road noise (Virtually NONE). Craig had tremendous knowledge of the specifications (recommended tire pressure, the difference between SPORT mode and ECO-Pro mode gear ratios, and back seat size compared to the competition) and he never mentioned "Cup Holder" once - Thank you. He also was able to describe the various packages and told me if I built my car online he would find it or help with the ordering process. I said I needed to have my wife see the car and drive, so Craig told me his schedule and did not rush me to pick her up. He knew I was in the market and he did not rush my family's car buying process! I told him I was aware it was the end of the month and I was aware of the special deals that may expire and he never brought it up again as a reason to buy now. After my wife's test drive (both the X3 and X5) we selected a different X3 configuration and closed the deal with a different package and features at 9:55 PM. Seriously, 31-minutes later; I checked the clock (10:26 PM) as I drove the new X3 off the lot. We're loving our new X3 and highly recommend Craig Rusin and the whole Chapman BMW On Camelback team. Two days later, Caleb Spurlin (BMW Genius) walked me through how to actually use the X3. Two weeks later he emailed me and invited me to come in and clear up any questions or learn some tips and tricks. We liked our experience with Craig and his team so much we did it again the next day. Stay tuned...

Only owned it two days but so far really like it a lot! Look forward to many years of use from the Subaru Forester! Great

While trying to make the right choice in buying a car for my daughter the people at Scottsdale BMW were very attentive and helpful with their information allowing me to make the right decision.

This model of subi has been great, outside of the factory warranty 2.5L engine replacement. Quick and responsive with the 5 speed. The automatic leaves a bit to be desired. Almost 9 inches of ground clearance is Jeep territory and the AWD system inspires confidence in rain, snow and mud.

As a result of the TDI recall we started looking for a replacement Beetle and met Dave Bonanno at VW N Scottsdale. What a stroke of luck! He was knowledgeable, professional , and offered options for us to purchase the #Pink Beetle that was sitting in the showroom, prior to handing in our VW TDI. He walked us through all the purchase steps, and introduced us to everyone we might ever need to work with down the road. David's follow up after the sale has been outstanding. Within the first month, he made several follow up calls to us just to see how we liked our new Beetle - which happens to be our 9th VW Beetle! Dave Bonanno is straightforward, ethical, and a pleasure to work with!

Great dependable cars...I have one with 265K on it and as soon as I have the radiator replaced I will give to the grandkids. Comment

Excellent performer in bad weather. Has a terrific ride & it is very comfortable on long trips & can swallows all your gear. This is my go to vehicle for road trips

I have always been leery about car dealerships but Autonation has been such a pleasant experience. This will be car #3 for my family in the past couple years from Autonation. We bought my husband's 2016 Silverado, and my 2016 Malibu from the Arrowhead location, and now our son is going through his first car buying experience at the Phoenix location. Svitlana has been amazing! Even though we told her we would likely not be purchasing today, she spent hours with us, test driving multiple cars, and asking questions, finding out what my son wanted and needed. It was all about US! She listened and got to know us and made us feel valued. I am so glad my son had a pleasant experience, as my first car buying experience at his age was terrible!! We did end up finding the perfect car and will be going back today to get it. Not ONCE did we feel pressure or pushed, only welcomed and valued. Thank you once again Autonation for a pleasant experience, and especially to Svitlana, for all the time you spent with us making yesterday a wonderful day for our family. We just love you! (And my son has already recommended you to another friend!!)

Dream car.love it .plenty of space, comfortable, powerful vehicle as well. I see my self recommending the same vehicle to other ppeople as well.why not..?
