I owned a 2021 Forester which I loved. I decided to get a 2025 Forester Limited. It's even better. Drives smoother and less noise. Love the new screen. Hoping this one is as good as the last one I owned. I don't think you will be disappointed when you test drive

Defies Expectations

Based on recommendations from family who own Subarus, we narrowed our search down to just a Mazda CX-5/50 and the Subaru. Edmunds was very helpful in terms of determining price range, recommended option packages, their reviews of the different cars we were considering initially and the likely trade in value of our former car. In the end, the test drives cinched the deal and made the Subaru the obvious choice for us.

Sell 2016 Forester for 2025 forester touring

My Wife always liked the good visibility of the road and how it performs on snow despite all weather tires. It is easy to navigate and park in tight quarters. Like the 2016, we did not expect much power, but that's OK, and the interior is still noisy on some road surfaces. One gripe is it does not come with a built-in garage opener like my 2016 did (crazy that the highest price model does not come with an opener.) Sometimes it warns me to pay attention to my driving when I am looking right down the road. (May be the sun reflecting off of my glasses confusing the algorithm.) I wonder if due to the short wheelbase both 2016 and 2025 require constant steering correction at highway speeds more than my F-150 Crew Cab.

Overall it's a great car but i wouks give it 4.5 stars. It's comfortable, easy, and practical. It's not the fastest car but it's not slow IMO like people make it out to be. Build quality is great, pretty quiet and alot of space. I only really have 2 faults with it. The infotainment is a little slow at times and finicky but its usually good and I wish it was the hybrid version (which I know it coming) to improve mpg which isn't terrible but not great.

I absolutely love my Subaru forester sport! I initially went in to test drive an Outback and well I own a forester now. The seats are so comfy, I feel like I belong in the car. It drives well, there’s minimal noise, and all the standard features that come with the sport are perfect! Heated seats, leather seats, moonroof, safety features I couldn’t ask for a better car.
