Used Subaru cars for sale in Alachua, FL

I drove 40 miles from my town (Ocala) to this dealer in Gainesville. Day and night difference from my local Ocala Subaru. They gave me an out the door price on request, no excuses. Everything was clearly explained and there were no add-ons from the dealer. The seller, Trevor, was knowledgeable and easy to deal with. Even the finance guy was nice! That was a surprise. The manager also came in, introduced himself, and left Trevor and me to finish the deal. I felt zero buying pressure. If you are near the area I recommend this dealer and Trevor. AVOID SUBARU OF OCALA. They are more interested in selling extras like nitro filled tires, etc... than the car.

Turn signals do not have a loud sound. They are very low My 2016 Outback has nice loud turn signals. You cannot turn your radio off. The only way not to hear it is to put the sound real low. Two major complaints I have

Excellent customer service, and the finance manager was "AWESOME".

2020 Subaru Accent met all my needs and dreams. Very smooth, sleek interior, full moon roof, interior exterior lighting is beautiful. Classy luxury SUV able to tow 5k lbs, turbo engine and many safety features .

Our sales person was Chase Tidwell he is a very professional and knowledgeable in the car buying business. This was the easiest experience of buying a SUV that I have ever had.

2023 Subaru Outback Limited XT. A great station wagon (it’s not really a SUV). Comfortable leather seats, smooth ride and extremely quick with the turbo. If you don’t need seating for eight, you have no need for the Ascent. Same engine and cargo capacity and ground clearance, lower to the ground, faster, better handling and several thousand dollars cheaper. Standard all wheel drive. Full safety suite. 11.6” infotainment system is really closer to 8” as the climate control takes the additional 3.6”. The Harmon Kardon sound system will blow your doors off. Good in car navigation. Wireless Apple Car Play and Android Auto. Hands free tailgate. 0-60 in 5.8 on regular gas. Standard roof rails. Even has heated outboard rear seats. If you’re considering a midsize or smaller SUV you owe it to yourself to drive this first.

Thank you John Mathew and John David and Bill Carter! Fantastic car buying experience! We will definitely be recommending Tomlinson to our friends and family :)

I have owned my Subaru Outback Premium since May 10, 2022. So 1 year and 4 months and 39,000 miles later it is still one of the best Cars I have ever owned. This was my first new car purchase ever and I am glad I did. I will owned another on absolutely!! So fun to drive.

Nice without being pushy, helpful with insurance and other information. Would buy there again.

The Touring XT has all the bells and whistles of a luxury SUV for a lower price point. The extra turbo thrust is impressive! It has a very comfortable ride for long trips.

I stopped in to look at a Honda Odyssey. Car was clean and ready to be test driven. I worked with Tami and was taken by pleasant and easy process that my husband and I experienced. I highly recommend this dealership.

from the first day I had it I haven’t had any issues with it as it handles great and gas economy is awesome. I don’t have a negative to write. I drove Lincoln’s for the last 20 or more years and because they stopped making cars and only Crossovers or SVU’s, I searched high and low to find an equivalent car and googled all the options that were a must and the Subaru Legacy Elite came up and my husband and I went to look and drove out with our new car and couldn’t be happier. The ride is comfortable and the car is just great.

Thank you so much to Eric Corley, he is great to work with. The whole process was simple and fast from start to finish..and I love my new GLE!

I have a 2020 Subaru Outback Touring 2.4L turbo model, the fully-loaded, most expensive model. It replaced a 2011 standard Outback with a 2.5L engine and manual transmission. My only criticism is poor gas mileage, about 23-24 mpg versus the 2011's 28.2 average over more than 100K miles. I like the power (260 HP) but might have forgone the turbo had I anticipated the unimpressive mileage. My 2001 Audi Q5, with a 260 HP 2.0L turbo engine, averages 28+ mpg, but cost $10K more than my Subaru. I rationalize by recognizing that $10K will buy a lot of gasoline.

Always impressed by the attitudes from the reps here.

I have a 1/3 mile driveway that climbs 400 feet from the street to my house. The Outback with good winter tires (I use Bridgestone Blizzaks) climbs this driveway with 10" of fresh snow on it like a mountain goat. And it's far better as a daily driver on summer days than anything else which would make that climb (4x4 pickup or a Jeep). 85K miles in six years and it's only been in the shop twice, once for a couple of recalls and once for a stuck power tailgate. One day and out both times. Only two gripes. With the 6 cyl mill the gas mileage is dismal, and the seats are too short for good thigh support (I believe they have improved the seats in the newer models)

I purchased my second vehicle yesterday from Tomlinson Motor Co. I still have both vehicles. My sales rep, Bill Carter, is one of the most knowledgeable and honest people I have had the pleasure of dealing with. Both vehicles are in excellent condition. Mr. Carter made sure I was aware of anything and everything about each vehicle. He was not condenscending, as some sales people are when dealing with an older woman. He was everything anyone could hope for when purchasing a previously owned vehicle. Tomlinson is a great dealership and you cannot go wrong with them.

I lucked into finding a returned leased 2020 Outback in July of 2022. Beautiful white exterior, drives like my '13 Legacy (handed down to my daughter, thus the new car for me!). Apparently Outbacks and Legacies have the same body frame, and driving this new Outback is a dream! This is my 4th Subaru and I absolutely, without a qualm, recommend them for handling, snow, comfort, style, cargo capability. After reading the reviews here, I can agree with two issues: battery and display screen. I also had a dead battery with no apparent reason. The dealership went over the car looking for a "battery draw," but found nothing wrong. They replaced it (under warrantee), and THE NEXT DAY the new battery was also dead. The explanation was this new battery had come from a warehouse and should have been charged before installation. No charge to me and no problems since, but definitely an inconvenience. The second drawback I would mention is the display screen. Way overwhelming, hard to find the functions to change driver assist et. al., and too difficult to drive while trying to change your heat, seat temp -- basic controls that should not require the driver to look down so much and for so long. No issues with operation of the screen. Finally, and maybe this was a one-off experience, I had to have the hood repainted because a leaf had left a weird stain right in the center of the hood. I cannot claim the stain was there when I got the car, but we tried every safe method (including wet sanding) to remove it and it was under the finish (according to the body shop). I'd venture to guess it came off the assembly line like that and it was fairly faint until you noticed it. Finally, I am strongly loyal to the dealership, as they have done right by me in many situations. They are fair, give me clear explanations and warn me about upcoming repairs, considerate, and have on more than one occasion checked a warrantee on my behalf to get me a better price.

It was the easiest car buying experience ever. Everyone was very helpful no pressure and I got a great deal. I was in and out in less than 2 hours and that’s including test driving 2 vehicles. Highly recommend.

2022 Outback XT Likes: Easy cruise control setting. Push steering wheel mounted tiny lever up or down...easy 5mph adjustment. Turbo gives good acceleration. 26mpg + overall. Easy steering wheel heater on/off. Blind Spot Monitor..Large, inside of side mirrors very visible. Nice interior...great fit and finish..classy. Comfy seats. Easy drop down passenger seats from opened rear hatch. Dislikes: Very annoying seat belt chime. This is an Outback, a sporty, take your car camping vehicle..so one would anticipate many in and out scenarios...like adjusting the kayak on the carrier, etc...yet EVERY time you have to clip on your seat belt or it will loudly drive you bonkers! Our two other vehicles (Toyota and Ford) do have the chimes, but not obnoxious at all). What was Subaru thinking? No high beam headlight override...go down a country road, and if it switches to low beam, you cannot override it as I can with our other two vehicles...it seems to be tied to vehicle speed, but is inconsistent. Setting the seat heater is unnecessarily complex (strangely for the front seats only). It is like a 3 or four step process, which takes your eyes off the road...at which time the car buzzes you to keep your eyes on the road...which are off the road because of this complex maneuver ...every other car we've ever owned just has at the simple button to push, as with the rear seats. AND...even on the lowest setting, the seat gets hotter and hotter, unlike our other two vehicles...till u have to turn it off. On entry, I hit my head on the door sill...I am 5'9", and yet.. Driving, the Subaru feels light; not firmly planted. The front end feels to want to wander...my wife thinks it is ok...maybe I am used to our front-heavy diesel truck. Heater or A/C is NOT automatic.... you have to monitor the fan..taking your eyes on the road ...with every other vehicle we have or ever had, you set the temp and theater/A/C adjusts the fan as needed. Finally...this may be just a "my car only" problem...one crossbar is loose...which gives me concern when hauling our kayak. Subaru looked at it and said it was within limits...yet, going through the parking lot, I have never found one other that is loose like that. This is mostly my wife's car, and she (5'2") likes it. She likes how it drives, gives her good vision all around, dislikes the obnoxious seatbelt chime and unnecessarily complex seat heater. Overall, it seems to be a well-built car, though our daughter, who has the same,(Touring XT) has had transmission problems at 40K miles, that she feels has never been totally fixed. We have had no engine or tranny problems, with 27k miles so far.

This was my first experience with the Service Department at Subaru of Gainesville; my 2022 Forester was due for its first oil change. The service representative was both professional and friendly and he gave me an estimated time for the completion of the safety check, complimentary oil change and complimentary car wash. The car wash was a nice surprise and the car was cleaned very well both inside and out. Altogether, my first experience exceeded my expectations and I look forward to leasing my next Forester from this dealer.

I traded in my 2015 Outback and am now one month into driving my 2023 vehicle which I quite like. But I have a serious complaint about the new headlight system Subaru is using. I drive many unlit country roads that have quite a few short but somewhat steep hills. When heading on a flat the low beam lights do an okay, not great but okay, job of illuminating the road in front (the2015 was better). But when heading downhill, the line of decmarcation between the lit and unlit field of vision area often does not seem to extend far enough forward to allow me to see even 25 yards ahead. When traveling at 35 or 40 mph, I find this dangerous and unnerving. While driving 35 mph downhill on a 40 or 50 yard stretch of the road on 2/18/23 I was unable to see far enough forward and therefore slow down in time before hitting a cat. Additionally, the display screen requires me to take my eyes off the road far too often to see what control I might be touching, be that a temperature control, a radio station, or something else. Those things not withstanding I like the car.

The complementary car wash is a very nice feature. An extra 30 seconds, to wipe down the wet spots, would make it an outstanding and memorable service.

Bought this car three years old with less than 50K miles on it. I’ve loved it since we got it. It has been very reliable, fun to drive, with pretty minor drawbacks. For example the maintenance has been very minimal. I haven’t noticed ANY oil burning or leaking (I have personally changed the oil every 3-4K miles). Sometimes on long trips it will burn some oil and need a top off, which the car alerts us to. Overall I’d buy this car over and over as long as it fit my needs at the time. Currently looking into an Ascent for future hockey trips and other trips.

Very helpful No pressure, patient and accommodating

I own several American cars in the past and I'll never buy another American car again after buying this Subaru. I feel a lot safer and a lot more comfortable in the Subaru Crosstrek than I ever felt in any American car built that I ever drove

Scheduled maintenance performed while waiting at dealer. Clean facility with friendly staff. Visited many times over past 5 years with 3 different cars for general maintenance. Always been satisfied.

I was between a rock and a hard place after my Honda passed away-it drove itself to its demise due to the handbrake not on tight enough. So I had nothing to trade, no leverage. I know Subarus owned many Outbacks and they go forever. The problem is I'm 5' tall and this car is too big for me after the Honda and a Miata I have. I had 2 big dogs and felt the car would be great for a dog owner. Which it is. One dog rode on the back seat (covered) the other had the back to herself. Great for a dog owner. If you need a crate there's plenty of room. This would be a great vehicle for a children or pet family. I only have one 10 yr old dog left and this uses too much gas for me to consider a practical vehicle.

Everyone in Gainesville recommends Southeast Car Agency and no wonder! Excellent service, competitive prices and helpful guidance, especially for a new US resident. What really sets them apart is the 'what you see is what you get' approach: no cardealer xx, no 'special deals' that are nothing of the kind, just the car you need and can afford.

I recently traded in my 2022 Ascent for a similar 2023 model. The 2022 model had brakes issues/noises right from the beginning of ownership. Subaru gave me a great deal on the 2023 model. A number of improvement were found on the 2023 model. Obvious one is the exterior styling with new front grille, headlights and taillights. Interior improvements include updated Eyesight, quieter ride, better steering and brakes, larger multimedia screen including front and backup camera screens, driver profile system. A few other tweaks here and there, making the 2023 Ascent Touring a decent and very safe SUV. Not necessarily sporty or thrilling but perfect vehicle for commuting in town and long road trips.

Such a great experience! This is my 4th car bought from Tomlinson and when it’s time for the next I’ll visit them again!!! 10 out 10 would recommend

Only gripe is no adjustable visors and side mirrors. I am short and the visors do not adjust in length. The side mirrors swing in and out but not up and down so there is interference for me. I have the seat adjusted to the max and use a cushion but still have a problem.

Great experience!!! Hassle free and great car selection/price. Very professional!!! The used car was basically new, just 28 miles!!! Recommend 100%. No pressure experienced.

7th Subaru for this Alaskan. This is the best I’ve ever had. Bought the Touring edition, new, & still blown away by the rig. Tested out with a cross country camping trip & comfort, adaptability, utilities, dependability - all a 5. Took a tent, but not even needed, w/firm foam to create a level, comfy bed area. Now I get why my cousin tried to replace his Ascent Touring with a Lincoln Navigator. Ended up selling the Nav to go back to an Ascent Touring. The first Sub I’ve had that Dad proclaimed ‘comfortable’ and ‘perfect’. I chose the Captains chairs for the 2nd seat, and passengers have loved the comfort & their view, as well as their controls, drink holders, etc. I love the options to simply control everything. Almost killed by a drunk driver long ago, I keep a very close eye on everything around me. Visibility in this rig is mind blowing. And that’s on top of all the cameras that monitor what’s happening. Safety features are perfect. Like listening to music, radio, podcasts? Sound in the Touring edition is heavenly. Very, very impressed with this rig.

Excellent drivability comfortable good value, quality and safety features Rides great . this is my 3rd Subaru 2 Foresters priori still own 1 2018 Subaru is a mainstay with me and my family. Great for winter

The service was good. The only thing negative issue was that I couldn't used the Maintenance Service Plan that I've purchase from Chevrolet/GMC from a different dealership Chevy Dealer. I was under the impression that I could used the MSP at any Chevy dealer, but I guessed not.

I'm still driving the 2019 Ascent with 56k miles. Other than a few recalls handled quickly, no issues whatsoever. Dependable, quiet, performance, comfort. I just had a loaner of the 2023 Ascent Touring model and I was amazed at the improvements. While I am keeping and love my 2019, the 2023 has improved handling, quieter, the transmission is certainly smoother and a solid and comfortable ride. Perhaps it has to due with the Touring model. I am not certain. I find my Subaru dealer to be honest, supportive and with an educated staff. This Ascent is large, which I enjoy immensely and without any family. The fit and finish is outstanding and the dash is quality components. No cheap plastic knobs or low grade materials. I would encourage you to test drive one today.

I called the dealership to verify that the car I was lookin at was at the location. Spoke to Alex, we set an appointment, he had the car ready for me to drive. I went back the next day and I purchased the vehicle. It was a smooth, quick and easy transaction!

I've had my 2019 Impreza Limited wagon for a little over three years now. In general, it's an excellent car for the price, with many safety and other features found only in cars costing much more. The Eyesight safety suite, Apple/Android Carplay, and Synchronized All Wheel Drive are the highlights. These are advanced systems but are easy to operate intuitively. Other nice features are driver visibility, quality fit and finish, and easy-to-see dash controls. It's a nice looking car but exterior styling is a little clunky. Other low points are a jerky CVT transmission, lower-than-estimated MPG (but still not bad) even with conservative driving, and very low front-end clearance. This is a sensible, not sporty car. If you want a zippy small car, this is not it. If you want an affordable AWD that's reliable, you can't do better.
