Subaru Forester: A Better Small SUV Than Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR-V??

Date of Review:  May 11, 2006
The Bottom Line: Subaru Forester delivers on the promises many other SUV manufacturers make. Read on to see why...
Review: Is a small SUV in your driveway's future? It is for a lot of families, and today's auto showrooms seem to have more small SUVs than any other class of vehicle. There's a lot of choices out there, and a lot of cars that I wouldn't mind driving on a...

2006 Subaru Forester X Auto, Sunroof

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2008
The Bottom Line: Great buy and winter driving. Dependability. Excellent customer service. Get the 7/100000 warranty from Subaru.
Review: What can I say but WOW! After wrecking our 2002 Passat GL 2wd I thought we could find no better auto. I was wrong. The Subaru along with there Customer service has out-performed my expectations. We get 24 /- around town and 29-30 on the interstate...

a nice practical car at a reasonable price

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 2005
The Bottom Line: It's a very practical car, yet it is a lot of fun. Features and comfort are in near-luxury range, the price isn't. Do yourself a favour, test-drive it.
Review: Subaru Forester XT, manual transmission, equipment group 1H, bought new in Sept. 2005. 06 XT models come loaded - turbo, leather, heated seats, etc., you name it.

This car replaced a German wonder, '01 VW Passat GLX, that had a habit of...

2006 Subaru Forester SUV

Date of Review:  May 30, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a small SUV with decent gas mileage and AWD this is the car for you.
Review: I leased the 2006 Subaru Forester in July of 2006. I traded in my 1999 Subaru Outback because I wanted a newer smaller version of an SUV with better gas mileage.

This car is a 4 cylinder automatic with all of the basic options and nothing...

Get the Forester Turbo 2.5 XT

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 2006
Review: With almost 40K miles in 15 months, the Forester 2.5 XT Turbo has more than proven itself in every area of car ownership. Consider:
1. 26.17 mpg hwy on a 1200 mile trip at 70 mph+
2. Screaming fast acceleration and top-end when needed for...

2006 Subaru Forester XLT

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2006
Review: My husband and I purchased our fully loaded 2006 Subaru Forester XLT three months ago and I love it! We opted for manual transmission and have found the gears shift more smoothly than those in my 2001 VW Jetta. The heated seats act quickly and are...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Date of Review:  Apr 14, 2007
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a safe, reliable vehicle then I would go for it. This car would be perfect for a family. Don't let its square looks deceive you!
Review: I just got this car a few months ago because I needed something to replace my old car. My mom wanted me to get a Subaru because of their good reputation. I drove it and liked it a lot but thought that I should shop around. Nothing I drove compared...

Love my Suburu Forester

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2007
Review: I just wanted to add my two cents worth to the Forester reviews. I've owned my 2006 for almost one year and wanted to add dependability plus to the assets of this great car. I bought a Suburu because I've driven them for over 20 years now and have...

a very good vehicle

Date of Review:  Apr 2, 2007
The Bottom Line: Highly recommend. Best value for money out there. High safety, driveability, economical. All wheel drive all the time, don't have to think about it.
Review: I rented a car for a 2 day round trip from Cedar Rapids to MSP on business. They offered an 06 Forester so I took it. I had just bought a new 07 maybe 3 days before but had only 100 miles on it. This would give me a feel for it on a long trip.
