Bought it at 122,000. Within 3000miles of use I had the wiper motor go out, catalytic converter check engine light. Lastly the head gasket blew as I was going down I-35 and the engine was fried by the time I could pull over. Worthless.
All wheel drive for life!

With a Subaru, you get safe, dependable, and fun to drive. I'm not talking about 0-60 numbers. I'm talking about normal every day driving, because how many people out there get the chance to really drive like a race car driver, legally? Whether you're driving on the beach in soft sand, heading up the mountains on winding roads, or just cruising through the country, you can feel the car planted to the road with plenty of pick up, even without the turbo option.

2011 Subaru Forester 2.5X Limited 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl 4A)

Recently purchased the 2011 Subaru Forester Limited. All Wheel Drive was a compelling feature for me and the fact that it is highly rated in Consumers Report. Number one small SUV. Some things I would like to see improved upon: Interior fit and finish and quality of interior materials. Limited Edition should have features such as auto lights, auto locking doors, Satelite Radio instead of Satelite Ready (which cost you another $500 to buy the parts to have the radio function as a satelite radio), Gas Lid release should be on the driver's door instead of the floor of the car (making it easier to reach), transmission should updated to a CVT transmission or more than 4 gears.
Great vehicle for tall people

2011 Subaru Forester 2.5X Touring 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl 4A)

This is my first time owning a Subaru and I am very pleased. I am 6'8" tall and could not be happier in this vehicle. The leg room and head room are fantastic, the ride is very comfortable, and the AWD feature is great. The exterior design is sharp and the interior design is simple. There is plenty of cargo room and the sun roof does not reduce the amount of headroom I have. The driver seat is very comfortable for long road trips and my passengers have commented on their comfortable seats. The Touring edition provides several key features that make it worth the extra money when compared to the Limited. I've only driven it 2,000 plus miles, but absolutely love this vehicle.
Reliable and safe

This car is practical and just always goes. In the 68k miles I have owned the car, not a single mechanical problem. Handles snow really well. Excellent visibility-there a virtually no blind spots.
