Used Subaru Forester for Sale in Vernon, CT

Bought a 2007 Toyota RAV4 from Dave this past week. He was so helpful and answered every question I had about the car and the process. I also really appreciated the laid back atmosphere, I was able to drive the car and take my time to think about it, no pressure at all. I will be recommending Moore's to my family & friends. Thanks again Dave!

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!

I was referred to Dave and he didn't disappoint . He made purchasing my new car so easy and got me exactly what I wanted at a more than fair price. On top of that everybody was so helpful from Dave and Matt the managers to Annie and Ahsam in finance. If your looking for a car go see Dave Chittick he will work for you and you will not 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.

My wife and I would like to thank Amanda Saucier for her patience and experience. She was very knowledgeable and did provide us give all the details needed to understand the car buying experience. She is easy-going and will do all she can to make your trip to Manchester Honda very positive. She is a great sale woman.

This car its all we were expecting. A lot of space in the back . Its perfect for families. I just loved everything off it.

I had been looking for a car for months and after as much searching as I could deal with I finally stumbled onto the one I had been looking for. The sales team, Brett Bauer specifically, were very willing to work with me throughout the whole process. Great overall experience for a first time buyer.

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

We weren't planning on buying anything yet and were just looking. Everyone was friendly and helpful without being pushy and/or just looking to make a sale. Bill K. worked with us, asked questions, really listened to what we had to say and respected our opinions - meaning he didn't try to change our mind about what we liked or wanted in a car. He also understood that I was still hesitant to give up my 15-yr-old 2002 Outback. It was in good shape but due to age would eventually start needing expensive repairs, which is why we were starting to look around. He was very knowledgeable and found us a car similar to what I had. On one question we had he got someone else more knowledgeable about it to speak with us. We did a test drive - sweet ride. We asked for time to talk and think some more. He left us alone. When we came back in to talk, he made us an offer we couldn't refuse. Finance also found us a warranty we couldn't refuse. Bill has checked in with us a few times to see if we had any questions and how we liked the car. We couldn't figure out how to set the clock - the manual wasn't helpful on that - and we brought it in. Bill was with another client but had Guy come out to the car and set it up for me. Guy was a sweetheart and patiently went through everything on the dash with me and set things up the way I wanted them. LOVE the car!! I've had it two weeks and already took it to Maine and back. Very sweet ride - like floating. Bill is a great guy and we highly recommend him and the dealership. It was a refreshing change from past dealership experiences where they only cared about selling a car no matter what or how, and getting as much money as they could out of us. Thank you Bertera Subaru of Hartford! :)

Went in looking to trade in my 2002 (pretty beaten down) Hyundai Elantra for a pre-owned Subaru. It was my first time financing a car on my own, and Bill was very helpful and explained everything to me. They also gave me the highest amount for my trade-in compared to other dealerships I had visited prior. I???m very happy with my 2015 crosstrek! Everyone at this dealership was very friendly, and they were eager to help. You guys all made this experience fun rather than stressful, so THANK YOU!

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.

Paul Kapij was friendly, responsive, answered all my questions and was honest throughout the process. Hes not your typical used car salesman. He is thoughtful, honest, and I never felt like I was trying to be tricked or sold on anything. I bought a CPO 2016 Subaru Legacy and they got it ready for me in under a week. On top, they gave me a remote start, detailed it, and put a gloss finish on the paint, all in under a week. Then, I really needed the car for a trip up to my lakehouse on a Friday, and they sent two people to register the car in MA, and they literally delivered the car to my residence in MA, which is 90 miles away. I love the car, I thought I got a good deal, and the experience overrall was way better than I expected. Most people told me buying a car is stressful. This wasn't. Part of it is that I knew the exact car I wanted, but even so everyone at the dealership was happy to answer ALL of my questions, they were responsive, and executed it through all the way to delivering it to my home. I would recommend Paul Kapij and Bertera Motors in Hartford CT!! Also, know that this review is being written from someone who demands excellence, pays attention to every last detail, and asks a lot of questions.

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..?

My husband and I visited two local Subaru dealers in our search for a new Outback, my second Subaru. At the time we were not sure whether we???d be purchasing or leasing. We were pretty satisfied with our initial experience with Dealer 1, but our experience at Bertera a few days later was so positive???from the initial appt set-up to the first sit-down to the test drive to the Q&A to the negotiations???that we decided to go with Bertera. We felt extremely well taken care of by our salesman Joe Boughton, who spent 3 hours with us during that first visit. Joe is very personable and friendly, yet completely professional. There was no question he couldn???t answer. He knew the Outback line inside and out and could answer all our questions about the newest safety features and amenities. He made the whole experience quite entertaining, in fact. And at the point when we had settled on s particular car and we???re negotiating price and whether to buy or lease, we felt he did a good job of helping us get a deal all parties were satisfied with. I would definitely work with him again and refer friends to ask for him at Bertera. When we came back yesterday to pick up our car, do the final financing paperwork, and get a final demo of the new cars features, Joe again made himself available for as long as we needed, then took us thru the Service Dept before we left. We feel we were very well taken care of at Bertera.

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.

Ashley n stan. Exellent service car rite is the best car dealer I've been to.Very helpful they explained everything i asked.I love the car they put new tires roters n breaks tune up.clean place no gimicks excellent price n warranty .love my car will buy there again will recommend to everyone i know.no pressure to buy they let you take your time .they don't sell you a car they let you buy the car.excellent very happy.

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 Jeep to Capitol for service and an oil change. They found two oil leaks and my wheel alignment was out. They fixed the oil leaks, performed a 4 wheel alignment, tire rotation and a LOF all on the same day. Steve Hartley has been a service writer at Capitol for years and he is very personable and knowledgeable. Steve is definitely and asset at Capitol Garage!

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.

After being a Subaru Forester owner for 15 years and ten years with my last model, it was time for me to purchase a new vehicle. Mike Maniscalchi introduced himself and we found him to be both personable, and knowledgeable in all aspects of the vehicles. He took the time to listen to a 60+ senior to try to place me in my perfect vehicle. Though I loved the Forester, I thought that our live style had changed and we could pursue other Subaru vehicles. Believe me when I say that I think I drove every vehicle type Subaru stocked. Liked the size and feel of the Subaru Crosstrek but could not get beyond the orange stitching they use in the interior. It drove like the Forester and had a sleek look and still offered the hatch. Unfortunately, the 2018 Forester had gone through some exterior and interior modifications, and it was not for me. We were at the dealership for the better part of the afternoon and evening. All the time we were there, Mike was as attentive as he was the first moment we arrived trying to work with me to find the "perfect" vehicle for me. By now I was so confused ( 6 pm)I wanted to call it a day! Mike never pressured us and if we needed to take a break and return the next day Mike would have been fine with that and would have greeted us the next day with a smile! My husband has a 2015 fully-equipped Subaru Legacy and in the back of my mind as far as features were concerned, I guess I wanted what he had in a different model. Though I still preferred the 8.7 road clearance offered by the Forester. Intuitively, Mike understood this and asked me if I wanted to drive the Outback. Much to my surprise, i liked how it drove, interior and road clearance worked also. Being seniors, we did have a budget and finally came to an agreement that fit our budget and I purchased the 2018 Outback Subaru. Additionally, he also spent all the time I needed when reviewing the features of my vehicle when I picked it up. Beyond satisfied with the entire Subaru experience. Ask for Mike when it is your turn to purchase a Subaru. He is patient, knowledgeable, makes you feel comfortable, interested in what you want, and if it takes hours to find you the perfect vehicle...he will! As you know the financing paperwork can be challenging and "painful". Kevin was great to work with and made the experience as painless as possible...he was friendly and personable. Both Mike and Kevin were awesome.

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.

7/1/18 When we first walked into the Bertera showroom every staff member was busy with a client. However Dan Leary immediately made time for us. Dan brought my wife and I to the Forester we found on Bertera's website. Dan knew most of the history of the car even though it had been in the lot for a few months. Dan then introduced us to Rich Santoni who knew even more about the particular Forester we asked about. Rich answered our questions and he immediately set up a comparison test drive for us in both a 2015 Forester and a 2015 Outback. Rich left mid week on a well deserved vacation and introduced us to Joe Bucko over the phone to help with any further inquiries. Both Rich and Joe from the Sales team answered every question we asked with no hesitation. If they did not have the answer at hand, they found out within minutes. Ashley from the Finance Team helped us make the best choices based upon our needs as we described them to her. Ashley utilized her extensive history in her role to explain the pros and cons of each option we considered. This was the most relaxing experience I have ever had spending a large sum of money in less than 2 hours. (My relaxed demeanor was commented upon by one of the staff members.) A testament to our experience with the great people at Bertera Subaru.

This car meets and exceeds all of my needs. I looked an numerous wagon-like models, because my old car was . VW Passat wagon. I looked at the Outback and the Forester, and immediately chose the Forester because of the feeling of space (more head room, bigger windows, and the moon roof).

I recently said goodbye to my 16 year old Subaru Forester and I was so sad! So, I went to Bertera, met Jeremy Schmieding in Sales, and he really helped me in my decision to buy a 2017 Forester. It is a big difference between the new and the 2002 model, and I was a bit apprehensive about the size (much bigger than I thought) and the "new" dashboard controls. It drives like riding on glass! Beautiful color, very comfortable. I think I drove Jeremy a bit nuts with all my questions, but he was SO patient and understanding and showed me everything I needed to know. He's always around to answer any questions I have, no matter how silly. I love Bertera Subaru and will always buy the Forester. I also like how environmentally conscious Subaru is. (Love their commercials). I'd recommend this car for everyone! And have Jeremy take care of you- he's great! I've even named my Forester after him- "Jasmine (for the color) Jeremy"! See you at 1000 miles.......

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.

One week ago I received an email from Schaller, today I drove away with the 2017 Subaru Impreza Hatchback with manual transmission (tough to find) that I'd hoped to find! Dave Pricone (sales) was excellent to work with, ensuring that I knew my new cars features before I left the lot. He worked with his manager (Mike) to get the price that I needed to stay in budget. And Kevin Savage (finance manager) had all the paper work ready for delivery. I'll be back! I expect that Schaller Subaru service professionals will be as exceptional as the sales pros were! Thank you again, Dave!

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 went to Bertera Subaru to look around for a used Forester. Their prices on the internet for Black Friday weekend were showing up less than other dealers in the area and I wanted to see if they actually were true. I had already made a deposit on a slightly used car (2016) at another dealer. I was introduced to Joe Bucko. He had a similar car on the lot but he then told me they were doing a sale on 2017 cars that weekend and when he told me the price, it was several hundred dollars less than the 2016 I already put a deposit on. We picked out the color from a car on the lot and I was about to order one for delivery when he offered a break on the new one in the lot with extra accessories for the same price. How could I say no. I did purchase the 100K warranty which I think is worth it for a new car and the maintenance program for $970. When I went back to get the car ( Joe got the car registered and plates on), I decided to cancel the maintenance program due to another review and they were very amenable to this. However, after I found out that it covers an extensive 30K check up and not just oil changes, I decided to keep it. Joe went out of his way to make things easy for me. I had to come back because the engine light had gone on and then next day it went off and he was helpful and ready to get me into the service area quickly. Great guy. All in all, this has been a very good experience for me as I am not one to buy a new car. Also, Subaru sends you a very nice leather travel bag for purchasing a new car. That was cool.

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've owned Subarus since 1975. Just bought a 2017 Impreza from Bertera Subaru and so excited. Know I'll be well taken cared of when I need service. 👍

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.

I originally saw a 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX on the Bertera website a couple of months ago, but decided I could find something cheaper on Craigslist. After looking at about ten different cars and realizing they were all either abused or rusty over the course of two months, I contacted Bertera and asked if they were negotiable on the 2002 WRX. They were very friendly, responding to my query instantly, and so I set up an appointment to go check out the car later that evening. I met with the salesman Jonathan who was very friendly and spent time with me and my wife giving us the background of the car. The car was in pretty good shape, minus a few blemishes expected of a more than ten year old car. Jonathan explained that the car was owned by the same owner, who purchased the car from Bertera new and had it serviced there consistently. After going for a test drive, I decided I wanted the car and me and Jonathan sat down to discuss the price. At no point did I ever feel pressure what so ever, which was really refreshing for a dealership. It was more of a "this is our best price, just let us know" situation, which made the buying experience very comfortable. Jonathan worked up the numbers and came out with a very competitive price. I asked him if they could do just a little better and after speaking with his manager, Jonathan told me they would meet my request. I was very happy with my purchase and Jonathan kept me updated over the next two days about registering, detailing, and inspecting the car. He clearly tried very hard to get me into the car ASAP and I was very grateful for that after having been without a car for 2 months. Overall, the experience was very low pressure, very quick, and enjoyable. Hopefully when I get out of law school, I'll be back to Bertera to buy a newer Subaru!

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 doing my research, we knew we wanted a new Forester. We just had to find the best place to buy one. Checked online quotes and compared to Schaller Subaru, found them to be competive. What we wanted was someone who wanted our business. After the purchase Dan spent a lot of time with us to make sure we understood all of the car's options and how to get the best experience with our 2018 Forester. Dan has also reached out to us to check our satisfaction and make sure we should call him if we had any questions. We have scheduled our first service appointment and have great confidence it to wil be a great experience.

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.

This past Christmas season, my Mother-in-law, my wife and I were heading out to Ohio from the Boston area to be with my wife's family. I had a 2013 Dodge Dart with roughly 55,000 miles on it, and it appeared to be in great shape, so we decided to take my Dart out to Cleveland for the 12 hour trip. Long story short, we didn't even make it out of Massachusetts, as we broke down on Route 90 at a rest area, the transmission DIED. We were over two hours from home at this point... I called AAA and they towed us to the nearest Chrysler Dealership, Metro. I walked into the service department visibly agitated at the situation, with my less-than-amused wife (who never wanted me to buy the Dart in the first place...) and my Mother-in-law in tow. Orlando greeted us, and offered the waiting room up to my wife and MIL while he and I figured out what we were going to do. Orlando understood my situation, and how my wife was clearly agitated with me -- and he made sure to do everything in his power to keep me out of getting in more trouble!! I got a rental from Enterprise while leaving the car with Orlando and drove out to Cleveland. Orlando called me the next day stating that Chrysler wasn't going to cover rental costs for me, and that the parts for my car were back ordered for at least a month. He instructed me to call Chrysler myself and gave me some ammunition to fight them with. Unfortunately, they wouldn't budge when I called. But, without me even asking him to do so, Orlando saw that the situation was B.S., and fought them for me. He had Chrysler conference in Enterprise and he talked Chysler into covering my initial out of pocket rental costs, and another 10 days of rental. He fought for more than 10 days, but Chrysler wouldn't budge... Knowing I was going to need a better solution than just 10 days, I called and said to Orlando: "You can see my Dart is in perfect shape other than the transmission that's under a recall. What can we do so I never have to see that Dart again?" Enter Marlon. Orlando got me in touch with Marlon, one of the sales guys. I told him my situation, my financials, and all the details. Because I was upside-down on my loan on the Dart, we had very limited options as to getting me into a new vehicle. Even though this is a Chrysler dealership, I think Marlon could tell I didn't want another Chrysler product. He showed me a 2015 Nissan Altima they had on the lot, and it was a perfect fit. He was able to work with the bank to make sure my payments didn't go up at all, and that I was able to get a very nice rate on the loan. Considering that I broke down in an area that I wasn't familiar with, I was at the discretion of the AAA driver as to where the car was going to be taken. I could not be happier that I ended up at Metro. Marlon and Orlando were outstanding.

The older Foresters are much smaller and have plenty of room without feeling like behemoths to drive. I like a small car and was hesitant at first, but this smaller SUV was perfect! Lots of power in the engine, and known for reliability!

Just love this dealership! Tim, the salesman, no pressure, Manny the GM and Mary the F&I were phenomenal to work with. No issues, no pressure, no games, no gimmicks! That was a plus! I checked out vehicles from all over New England and none of them could beat their price! Special thanks to them all!

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 !
