This is my first Subaru. To date I am very satisfied with the SUV. Handles well and is fun to drive. Certainly meets all of my needs from shopping, golfing and traveling.

Got this after owning a 98 model for many good years. Mileage had been good, we break 30 on trips. Like the perforated and heated leather seats, too. Good size for a family of 4 - small outside, big inside. Ours hasn't seen the dealership since we bought it, our salesman says we see him every 7 years, when it's time to buy a new one. I'd like to see them add Direct Injection and maybe the CVT from the Outback. All in all we're happy and would buy the same car again.

Tough to Beat for Value & Quality

This is our family's 3rd Subaru. Traded in a 2008 Forester that we loved for its ruggedness, reliability, AWD, and safety but needed more rear leg room as 2nd child is on the way. Got a steal of deal on the transaction and could not be happier with our new 2010 Forester. It's just the right size inside but still has a compact exterior that is easy to maneuver. The interior is well laid out and all body components are tightly built. Yes, we have a couple of rattles hear and there but nothing overly annoying. Be careful of the light grey interior (might get dirty fast). Overall, this is not a particularly luxurious vehicle but is still solid, safe, and very reliable. Can't beat it for value.

This is our fourth Subaru. 02 WRX, 08 Outback, 09 STI, and 2010 Forester. If you know Subaru you know the beauty of Maximum Value, Reliability, and Safety! Did I mention a blast to drive as well. This car has the same dash as my STI and drives like an AWD car with slick SUV looks. Subaru did a great job with the new style! This car is driven primarily by my wife and she loves it! (So do I!) I'd rather have her in a forester than any other compact SUV or crossover. Go with the best get a Subie!

Haven't had for very long but really like it. Easy to handle, perfect size, and very practical. Plenty of room.
