Used Subaru Forester for Sale in Melbourne, FL

This is my second vehicle purchased from Vroom in the last 12 months, and I can't imagine ever buying a used car from a brick-and-mortar dealership again. Vroom offers a terrific selection of late model used vehicles. The pictures really make it easy to know what the car looks like. I purchased a 2015 BMW 5-series, and the Vroom price compared to a similar make/model/mileage vehicle from CarMax was $3,000+ cheaper. I selected my vehicle over a few weeks of looking at photos. I filled out a credit application online, and they immediately called me to finalize the app, discuss rates and payments, and to get my $500 deposit. I received a loan package via FedEx 2 days later, signed all the paperwork, and sent it back in the pre-paid FedEx envelope they provided. About 3 days later, I started getting emails to schedule delivery. The process only took 9 business days from the moment I made the deposit to the moment I got my vehicle. The vehicle was clean, just as described, and runs great. Now I just need to get a state inspection and add this to my insurance policy, and the tags will be mailed to me in a few weeks. Thankfully, Vroom gives me a 60-day temp tag so there is ample time to receive the plates. This is the future of car-buying, and the 7-day money back guarantee makes it the perfect way to purchase a used vehicle.

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.

Great shopping experience, actually kept their word about some issues with the truck that I found after the purchase. Surprised me, wonderful surprise. Me

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.

I am a car enthusiast! I spend way too much on cars ??? but I work 24/7 and it???s my only hobby. This review will be a bit on the long side, simply because I have so much to say about my experience with Vroom. My wife gets frustrated with me because I talk so often about how amazed I am with Vroom in every aspect! I bought my first car in 1968. Back then I couldn???t afford much, but since about 1979 I???ve purchased some very cool cars. I even bought a brand new Rolls Royce back in 1985. I???ve owned: exactly 10 Mercedes, Jaguar, Ferrari, Audi R8, BMW, Range Rover and several others. So when it comes to dealing with car dealerships, I feel like I???ve become rather expert ??? AND a huge skeptic of car dealerships!!! When you buy a high-end car, you lose SOOO MUCH money, as soon as you drive it off the showroom floor. So the last time we purchased cars, we decided to purchase nearly-new cars with very low mileage on them. We bought an Audi R8 and a Mercedes SL63. And it turned out GREAT. No regrets. So now it was time to sell those cars and buy two more. I happened across Vroom.com in my Internet search, and found the perfect cars for both my wife and I at the same place ??? Vroom.com. The cars are nearly identical to the same cars we???ve been driving, but just newer. A 2014 Audi R8 and a 2014 SL63 ??? both with about 3,500 miles on them. Even the same colors as our previous cars. I got bids from several companies to sell our cars to. Vroom offered the highest amounts on both of our cars!! And it was FAR easier to sell to them than any other company. Unbelievably simple! And the prices for the newer 2014 cars was extremely fair. I flew out from South Orange County, California to Vroom to look at and drive both cars. Vroom picked me up at the airport and brought me back to the airport. I was extremely impressed with Vroom and their showroom. And without exception, every single person I???ve spoken with and dealt with at Vroom has been not only helpful and enthusiastic, but GENUINELY concerned about making me happy. Even after the sale they keep contacting me to see how I???m doing and to ask if there???s anything that I need. They got me great financing! Less than 3% interest rate. I had no clue that you could do that with a ???used??? car. No other buying or trade-in experience I???ve ever had comes even close to how great, simple and fast this was. Oh???and they shipped the cars from Texas to us at NO CHARGE, and picked up our two cars at the same time. And the nice young man who delivered the cars was fabulous. He was so very, very careful with our cars. And not only do they have their guarantee ??? I believe you have a week or so to drive the car, and if you don???t like it, they will take the car back. They even told me several times (even after I???d purchased the cars) that if for some reason we decided we did not want the cars, they would come pick them up and truck them back to Texas at NO COST to use. Unbelievable!! Well, my wife is now also so impressed that she no longer is frustrated with me for talking about Vroom so much, and telling all my friends. In fact, I???ve already asked Vroom to look for a car for my daughter. I now would not think of getting her car anywhere else than Vroom. I mentioned before that I???m a skeptic when it comes to car salesmen and dealerships. So if I was you reading this, the first thing I???d wonder is, ???Why is this guy writing this review? Are they paying him???..???? Well, I don???t know any of the people at Vroom. I spent so much time on this review simply because I believe that when people deserve credit, and they treat you so nicely, you should reciprocate and sing their praises. My name is Dr. Rod Kurthy. I???m a dentist and I own a dental products company in Southern California.

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.

I was referred to Texas Direct Auto/Vroom by a good friend and I???m glad I decided to go with them for my car purchase! I initially got Billie as my car sales personnel, but she seemed to be very pushy and just aiming to make quick sale; which is something that made me very uncomfortable. After speaking with her for a while I advised I would give her a call back to speak with my financial advisor on proceeding further on this process with Vroom. When I called back I got a different agent that saw in the system that saw I was talking to Billie and advised me that she would give me a call back in 5 mins, well 30 mins passed and I called back upset because I did not hear back from her after she ran my credit and didn???t like the fact I wasn???t trying to put 2500 down. My credit score was excellent I had a 740, but I didn???t have enough credit history she said is the reason why she kept asking me to put so much money down on 23k 24k car. The last time I called upset after not hearing anything from her a gentleman by the name of Shannon Humbles answered and I advised him that I did not want to work with Billie anymore because she made me feel very uncomfortable and I felt like she didn???t personally care about helping me through the process of the purchase. Shannon is an ALLSTAR!! He went over and beyond the call of duty to help me make this purchase!!! 7 days later my vehicle sits in my parking garage and I love it! The process was so easy to purchase, I had to put 1500 which is the standard, instead of 2800 that???s Billie was demanding that I put down! Please go with Vroom! I saw a couple bad reviews and I know every process has its flaws, but I???m here to tell you, they work! They are a very good company and I look forward to making another purchase with them for my girlfriend???s Christmas gift! Thanks Shannon and Vroom!!!!

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.

I will say that I was a bit apprehensive after reading some negative reviews; but due to the volume that this dealer ships out, I can only assume that poor experiences are a small percentage of their business practice. I visited Vroom???s website in the evening and decided to purchase my wife a Cadillac SRX. Within minutes I received a call from a sales rep. Within an hour of that initial call, he collected my $500 ???hold fee??? that was later applied to my down payment. The following day, my sales rep called to inform me that financing was secured, even with blemished credit. (Required an additional $600 down payment which I had wire transferred). 3 days later, I received my contract via FedEx, completed it, and shipped it back. Once they received and reviewed, I was sent an email with an expected delivery date. From start to finish, the entire process took 10 days, and we received a used Cadillac SRX in EXCELLENT condition. The interior was spotless. The exterior needed a wash, but it was understandable because the car was shipped from Texas to Florida. I have already recommended this service to others, and will likely use them again. *Car does come with a 60 day temp tag, and I have not heard back from Vroom about acquiring my actual registration and plate. - However, I believe that I still have a couple of weeks left on the current tag.

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.

My wife Gerri and I had just recently decided to explore different cars than we have been purchasing in the past. Our current car was a 2008 Honda Civic that we bought from a private owner about a year ago. There were a few minor issues we had started to experience with the car, so my wife and I decided that it may be time to look into a newer used vehicle. At first my wife suggested a Mini Cooper because she liked how "cute" it looked. I checked into it online and thought it might be a possibility. When I checked for a local dealer that had a Mini Cooper, Gator Chrysler in Melbourne, Florida popped up. I checked out the website looking for the "Mini" and did not see any. I did however, see that they had the "Fiat" models that had a similar look to the "Mini" but was a "taller" car. I started checking what they had and saw a nice used one that was two-tone black & silver and a 2018 model. I called the dealership asking to talk to a salesman. A very pleasant gentleman by the name of Michael Moore took my call. We had a quick conversation and I told him that my wife and I would stop by after work. We arrived and was greeted by Mike. We did a quick perusal of available Fiat used models. The one I saw online stood out the most. After opening the vehicle, we checked out everything and were very impressed. It was so sporty looking. Of course we both took it for a test drive and fell in love with it. Now the sticker said the car's MSRP was around 23K. We also were surprised that the mileage of the vehicle was only 5100 miles!!! Michael told us that the owner, Joe Kelly will put his best price for his used cars online. We were so happy to find out the car was listed online for just under 17K. Even though we were not actually ready to make a purchase yet, we could not pass up such a great deal. So Mike got all our information including what monthly payment were trying to achieve and how much down we wanted to pay. We also had them appraise the Honda to see how much they could give us on our trade. After a short wait, we were brought into the business office and were introduced to manager Maryann Higgins. It was evident from the start that this was going to be another awesome experience because Maryann was sweet and accommodating throughout the entire paperwork process. She expertly walked us through all the numbers and the available warranties. My wife and I were so pleased with the professional and friendly way both Mike and Maryann treated us. I consider both part of my "extended" family. We are absolutely thrilled with our 4-door Fiat 500L and look forward to many happy years of ownership. My wife and I highly recommend this dealership because of the high-caliber employees that are well represented by Mike and Maryann.

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.

Vroom personnel were thoroughly professional and I received great value in my trade and new car. I took my car to the local dealer for a through inspection upon free delivery. (Vroom offers a 7 day free return policy.) The BMW service manager told me my 2015 X3 Xdrive28i was in such good shape, it would qualify as a certified per-owned on their lot. I easily could have paid $3K more for the car than I did from Vroom.

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 !

I'm just going to talke about the only thing that was really BAD. My target time for delivery was 6am - 8am. My car showed up at 8PM. Hard to check it out in dark. I took the day off. And since it came so LATE that I had to call in sick the next day. (I get up at 3am for work) And the drivers door emblem was missing. Delivery drive said I had to prove it to him, that one was there when I nought th car, witch I did. He said there company would send me one. Yea RIGHT!!!

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.

After dealing with a couple of local dealerships that left me disgusted and insulted, I decided to give on-line buying a try. I found the car I wanted on Vroom and then began checking every review on them that I could find. Most of the complaints had to do with getting the titling paperwork in a timely manner. I could deal with that if that was the main concern. So- I let Vroom know I was interested in the car and gave them information on my car as a trade in. They responded in 30 minutes with a guaranteed offer that was exactly what I was hoping to get based on Kelly Blue book.We decided to finance the remainder of the loan through our own bank as we got a better interest rate. Everything went beautifully! I was given the extension number of the associate that was assisting us and we were kept apprised of everything along the way. I mentioned the concern about receiving the titling paperwork (our interest rate could go up if we didn???t get the paperwork to our bank within 45 days). They had me talk to a person in their titling section who assured me she would make sure it went out as soon as possible. Delivery- Seamless! The truck couldn???t come to our house- no way to turn around-so he met us at Walmart (I love telling people I got my car at Walmart). He pulled my new car off, went over where some minor scratches were (I wouldn???t have seen them had he not pointed them out) , documented the condition of my trade in, loaded it up on his truck and DONE! My titling paperwork arrived the next day. I couldn???t be happier with the whole experience and will use Vroom the next time we???re looking for a vehicle.

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!

My husband and I were looking for a white Lexus RX350. We spotted one we loved but decided too late and it was gone. So the next time we spotted one we were quick to hold it. (we had also submitted a search for a white Lexus) My husband, my adult daughter, and I all looked at the ad and it said "White". Purchase was finalized on 12/162015 (we paid cash) The car was not delivered until 1/5/2016, due to the holidays and bad weather, and when it arrived it was SILVER not white. We are embarrassed to say that looking back on our paperwork it does mention silver on two pages. Our mistake. I drove it around town the day it was delivered, but the next day I decided I really wanted white. I had not driven 250 miles around town, but it was already 5 miles over the allowed mileage to return it within the 7 days. (should have checked odometer reading when it was delivered). I thought we were stuck with the silver, but Vroom is honoring the 7 day return policy and it will be a happy new year after all.

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.

My Vroom first contact was Shannon Humbles. He was very friendly sales and he answered all my questions straight forward that I had been convinced to purchase 2018 Jaguar XE on 10/1/2018. The car delivered on time. There was some cosmetic work need to be done. Safiya Armstrong at Vroom Customer Support was my contact person. She did excellent job in handling the matter in prompt, profession and friendly way. She followed up to the end in timely manner until the issue is solved.

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

The sales staff at Vroom were a pleasure to work with, we were from Maryland and hesitant to purchase an Audi A6 TDI without seeing it first. We also planned to trade an older car as well and Vroom took care of everything, we took pictures of our car and sent them in for the appraisal, the process took about 15 minutes but the offer was lower than what CarMax had offered a few months before, we took it back to CarMax and received the new offer. Vroom adjusted the initial offer without any problems. The final numbers and financing were agreed upon and Vroom sent the paperwork to be signed with highlighted areas to avoid any confusion. They included a self-addressed pre-paid over night envelope to make things easy. Shipping was flawless, Vroom sent multiple pictures as the Audi was being loaded and included the drivers contact information. We received a call about 24 hours prior to the scheduled delivery asking if we wanted to accept delivery on a Sunday instead of Monday, the early delivery was perfect for us and the driver kept us updated on his progress, we received multiple calls and even had a final call saying he was 5 minutes away. It was impressive to see a tractor trailer with cars pull up to the house, total time from arrival to leaving with our trade car was about 30 minutes. The driver unloaded the Audi and we did our walk around inspection and accepted the books, keys, etc. then did an inspection of the trade vehicle, handed over the keys and let him load it. Most impressive was the after sales support, Sirius needed Vroom to activate the trial subscription; I sent an email and had a response with minutes. We also asked for a status update on our plates, the temp tags were still good for a couple more weeks but we wanted to make sure the tags were on the way or let them know to extend the tags. The sales staff at Vroom called the house within an hour and said tags would arrive later that week. Overall, the most enjoyable experience we've had buying a vehicle, no hassles from the staff, delivery to your door on the weekend, and surprises after receiving the vehicle. We were skeptical at first, the process sounded too good to be true but was exactly as advertised actually better than advertised, we'll definitely use them again!

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.

Todd Munce and the sales staff at Gator Chrysler Dodge Jeep were excellent yet again. This is the third time I have done business with this dealership and I myself have purchased two vehicles now from them and my mother-in-law another. Each experience was painless, quick and easy with no sales gimmicks or underlying hidden costs. The ONLY negative for this dealership is there "Add-Ons" sticker on top of the manufacturers pricing. No one would ever pay or charge for this meaningless upgrades and / or pricing increases. That seriously is the only negative and everything else is 100% positive. Loving my new 2018 Dodge Challenger SXT Plus and my next vehicle (Jeep Wrangler Unlimited) will be purchased here in the near future!!!

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..?

Looking for a car for my wife and she had a specific model and colors that she wanted to find. Vroom had the a couple of cars and they looked great on the website. Started the process to purchase with skepticism about buying a car from just pictures on the website and not seeing the car in person. However, the team at Vroom went out of their way to answer my many questions, went to the lot and took pictures of the car when asked (multiple requests) and verified all of my questions. They always answered e-mails or questions over the phone and showed great customer service. The entire process took right at 2 weeks from purchase to delivery. We also had a car to trade-in and they were very fair on the price and picked it up upon delivery of the new car. The delivery process for us was manageable even though the time slipped one day due to travel but the driver and Vroom Delivery support kept in contact each day. When we received the car we noticed 2 minor items that were broken and Vroom Customer Service worked to replace and paid the local dealer directly. Overall, a very good experience and I highly recommend Vroom and their team. You have to be willing to go into the process understanding it is a different experience buying a car from a website and be flexible with the process and communication.

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.

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

Pleasant and knowledgeable staff. Maintenance service was thorough and a problem I had been having was diagnosed and solved with new battery replacement. Performed all warranty service and exceeded it by reloading new software upgrades.

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.

I went in to look not knowing anything about this place. Just drove by and saw a car that caught my eyes and I had to stop just to see. Larry came out to greet us. Nice guy. He was willing to show us any car on the lot. Not knowing if we could afford it but he had no problem getting the keys and letting us test drive. I had credit problem but they were still willing to help. I brought a bmw 335i with 70k miles on it. Of course it's not perfect but its used and in execellent condition. I had a small wiper problem and they are taking care of it. These guys at autowise know customer service and how to get poeple to come back. The only dealership so far that I felt good about. I was glad my fiancee and I ran into them. We will be upgrading her car in the next year or so with them. THANKS AUTOWISE for my nice ride!

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

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

The car has met all my needs even in the winter snow and ice no problem with it at any time the six months i have owned. The forest er

I have been searching for the right truck for a few months. Found it through Vroom. I liked having the Carfax report and original window sticker at my instant viewing. The full process took 4 working days to be approved which included overnight envelopes back and forth for document signing. The time it took to receive my truck was within the time limit they specified however it seemed like it took forever as I wanted the truck right then. 😋 saving what I did from the average asking price I have seen shopping around made the wait worth it.

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.
