My 1st Subaru
I previously owned a Camry and wanted a small SUV for better visibility and the ability to transport larger items that wouldn't fit in a sedan. I loved the great visibility and comfort.

Bought out the lease out since I loved it
It is the first new car I have kept over three years. Could not be tempted to replace it as I have had no issues with it. Have only taken it into dealer for normal maintenance. No adjustments or warranty claims needed. My only regret is purchasing the extended warranty which have never used nor expect to. Excellent visabily unmatched by any other vehicle Interior a bit austere but this seems to be a car created by engineers

absolutely love it
I have had this car for 6 years and no problems at all. It drives very good in all conditions, is very spacious. The best part is the trunk. I highly recommend this car for any driver who is looking for a good reliable car.

Best for a commuter car.
This car is a 2.5L touring model and 4-spd auto. It comes with backup camera, auto-dimmed head mirror, heated seats, dual-auto climate, sun-roof, and Bluetooth connectivity. I got the car less than 50k mile for $18k. I would say the best for anyone who likes mid-size wagon for commuter and Symmetrical all-wheel drive (best of both world). Mpg is average 21 city/ 27 hwy on paper. I max the mpg at 25.5 just by driving from the city to highway.

Forester Touring Package
Although this is a 2011 it has a number of features of newer models. The design feels spacious inside and very comfortable.

5 years in... A+++
I bought my forester new in late 2011. I've seen put over 60,000 hard miles on it and all i've had to do was change the oil. It's been problem free mechanically and my trusty steed. The quality of the plastic parts is lacking and I've lost one of the plastic fenders on the exterior and managed to mar up one of the paneling on the interior. I said to myself that this car would take a beating and it has. It tows trailers on my farm, has traveled the country multiple times and gives me about 30 mpg on the open road. The driver seat is not the most comfortable now, but overall, i have no complaints.

BEWARE!!!!
I own a 2011 Subaru Forrester Limited. I did my research and thought I would driving this vehicle until 200k at least. I change my oil religiously and exceed factory recommendations of every 6500 miles by changing on average every 4900. Factory specs call for full synthetic, so it's not cheap. After 147,000 I have been told by the dealer that I need a new small block replacement with an estimated cost of $8000. This vehicle burns oil like no ones business. It also appears that Subaru is aware of the problem and says nothing to their customers.

Forrester or Bust
I love this car. I bought it for the fiance, who had a 2001 Subi Forrester that would honestly run until the wheels fell off. The "newer" 2011 we purchased has it all, comfort, style, power... Everything. Living here in Colorado, we need a snow handling ride, and so far Forrester is answer the call, and kickin butt.

Subaru is the way to go!
I recently bought my Subaru Forrester from Sarinsky's Fine Cars in New Windsor, NY and couldn't be happier. Dave and Anthony were great to deal with and sold me a very reliable car. I have been driving my car from Orange County to Westchester County for work since January and have not had one issue with my Subaru. It has great gas mileage, a smooth drive, and is great in snow or any other bad weather. This car has an amazing amount of storage and great visibility. I was very happy with where I got my car and will be buying my next car from Sarinsky's Fine Cars in the near future.
