Used Subaru Forester for Sale in Portage, IN

Wonderful people. Wonderful cars. $350 for 4 sparkplugs? I don't get that. Perhaps there is more to it, but nothing more was detailed. I really want to use your service, but $1700 for routine service on a 2010 Forester? Geez! I've usually avoided service at dealerships for that reason. I want to stay with you but I suggest you ease up on the pricing.

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.

Great Salespeople, introduced to Service Department, Finance Department very helpful. Castle dealership is top notch and I'm really happy we made the trip across Northern Indiana to Portage. We have a 1998 Subaru Forrester, with 186,000 miles, still getting the family around today . My wife and I knew exactly what we wanted from our own personal experience how reliable Subaru's are. Bazinga! Thanks again Castle.

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 owned my 2017 Subaru Outback for almost 2 years and have a hair over 36,000 miles on it. Prior to buying my car from Castle Subaru, I researched the vehicle, as i do a lot of highway driving, and went to several Subaru dealerships. Castle Subaru went above and beyond even when I was researching my vehicle. They offered me several test drives of several different Outbacks and even wanted me to drive other Subarus to see if one of those Vehicles would fit my need better. I bought the Outback after checking it out for about 2 months. I do my homework. The service department is second-to-none, the people know you by name on the showroom floor as well as in the service department, and they even wash my vehicle prior to returning it. They explain everything that's being serviced and give me a timeline to make sure my time is not wasted. A better dealership I did not find. I even checked in Illinois, as I live in Indiana, and I'm so happy I purchased from Castle Subaru. When I purchase my next vehicle, I will be shopping at Castle Subaru.

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.

I tried to buy a car here since I like the service dept. but the price was $2300.00 more than I paid for the same car elsewhere. Do they think we don't do research before we come? The service dept. is great but they do so many follow up calls, recommendations of unneeded service, etc. that I may end up going elsewhere. So this place is worth checking out but keep an open mind.

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 recently purchased a 2019 Crosstrek from Tony Alvarez at Castle. This was my first Subaru and Tony was very helpful and spent a lot of time with my wife and I going over all the models and what options fit our budget. We went for a long test drive that really showed us what the car was capable of. Bottom line, we had a great experience at Castle and I would recommend them if you are shopping for a Subaru.

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 had a short window of time after work and I decided just to go see the new 2018 Subaru Crosstrek in person at Portage Castle Subaru. I met Brent Sharp and now I'm the owner of a 2018 Limited Subaru Crosstrek. I only went there to see one in person and after a brief conversation with Brent Sharp he was able to beat my expected monthly payment budget. Brent certainly puts the customer first and for being below the legal drinking age he was very professional and courteous. It only took 2 hours and I drove off the lot with an awesome brand new "Subie". Thank you Brent Sharp for a hassle free car buying experience. Go see BRENT SHARP @ Portage Castle Subaru, you won't be disappointed.

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.

9 minutes ago If you are looking to buy a new or used car, suv, truck or van go to Castle in Portage and ask specifically for Andrew Plebanski in sales and Sean O'Connell in Financing. These guys provided A1 customer service. And... I can not leave out DAVE EISEN. During my experience, there was a hiccup and Dave Eisen stepped in and saved the day and the deal! These 3 men treated me like a person and not a number. If you want personable service and a good vehicle purchasing experience, ask for Andrew, Sean and Dave!

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..?

There are not enough stars to express the quality of service that was provided to us. We had been looking for a car for months and had visited many car dealerships. Everywhere we went, it was the same thing: we were just another number. When my wife and I came to Castle, we were greeted by Tony. He made sure from the moment we walked in, we were taken care of as if his own family came in. He did not have the vehicle we wanted, but he took the time to listen to us and then went above and beyond to find what we were looking for, at the price we wanted. The price we talked about was the price we got, not a cent more. Great customer service, devoted time and effort to make sure we looked no further. Tony should be the example for many other car sales men out there. Thanks, Tony!

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.

Brought my Crosstrek in for oil change/ tire rotation. Job was done quickly, efficiently, and price was extremely reasonable. Service Advisor Mario was excellent. I was in and out in about an hour including car wash!

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 !

Great experience overall. Went only planning on browsing to confirm we liked the car but ended up getting a great deal that we couldn't pass it up. Jeff helped us and was straight forward and didnt give us the typical salesman spiel, and didnt try to push us in any direction, which I greatly appreciated. No pressure whatsoever! My boyfriend and I have already recommended Castle to a friend in Illinois who is considering a Subaru and will continue to refer them to others in the market for a new car!

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.

Purchased a 2017 Subaru Outback last week from this dealership thru the Costco auto program and found the experience to be almost enjoyable. The staff very knowledgeable and friendly. I would recommend this dealership to my family and friends. Ask for Kim (Sales), Also, management (Mike and Glen) were accomodating.

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!

We just purchased a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek, and Tony was a great salesman. He was knowledgeable, thorough, and friendly. We would gladly recommend him to others.

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

Did my car shopping on the internet; Carnax, Cargurus, Autofinder, etc. Found this car from Castle Subaru listed on Cargurus. Called dealership to get more info and negotiate selling price. Drove 3 hours to dealership. Everything was as promised. Completed paper work and drive car home. Love the car and very pleasant buying process.

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.

Shopped for an SUV and found an excellent used car. No complaints and have had nothing but regular repairs. Buying process was fast and easy.

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

This car is meeting all of my needs, with only a few minor tweaks needed from initial purchase - and the seller (a dealer) has been fair, friendly, and open to offering good service packages to accompany sale. Glad I found them through Cars.com filtering options.

I usually HATE dealing with car salesmen. But Steve Pickett changed all that. He found what I wanted...a 2016 Rubicon, low miles, and it still smells new!! Steve actually had us laughing (a nice change from the dreaded "I have to talk to my manager" let's -make-a-deal scenario). I would go through him again in a heartbeat! My one and only gripe has nothing to do with Steve. I've had my jeep for over a month, and I'm STILL waiting for my title...a bit frustrating 😟

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

My husband and I extremely love the treatment we received while at Berman???s. Jadrian Hanko and David (Which David had only been with Berman for a couple of days) made my first experience at a Infiniti dealer a memorable one. From the first call to the dealer, to coming in late on a Friday night to picking up my 2015 QX70 the next day (New Years Eve 2016). I was I little apprehensive on leaving BMW (I had a 2014 BMW X6), this dealer and its staff totally blew BMW out of my mind. I am totally happy with the vehicle and elated that I drove from Plainfield, IL to Merrillville and received nothing less than stellar treatment from the best Inifinti Dealerships on the map. What a way to start the year off. This is a dealer we will continue to do business with.

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.

Reliable place to get used car. Nice management and service. The manager Ahmed is so nice. And a mechanic over there is so good. 5 stars without hesitation! I bought Nissan for the best price in market. ¿

I feel comfortable and safe in the car, great visibility. The car handles extremely well in the snow, probably improve even more when I get snow tires. I like the exterior styling and open visibility, all around.

I recommend anyone looking to purchase a quality used car to shop here first. The prices are always reasonable and the cars are of better quality than other dealers. Sam and his crew are good people to do business with.

This car is exactly what i was looking for. Despite the higher mileage, i am certain this car will last me the time that i need it to

I just bought a 2018 xt5, and I couldn't be more pleased with the salesman and the experience at Arnie Bauer. Unlike other dealerships, I did not feel pressured at all by my salesperson, Jesse. He was kind, patient, and very knowledgeable about my vehicle. He took a lot of time to explain the car to my technologically challenged self! I'm very excited to have purchased my first, long awaited Cadillac from Jesse at Arnie Bauer!

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.
