Pros

Handles well due to AWD and has low range capacity, also fuel efficient. Comfortable and has a roomy rear compartment.

Cons

Not as much ground clearance as a 4WD and not as much grunt as the Pajero (obviously as has smaller engine and is not a DID!)

Good Car For Small Price — Very good car for the price. Handling is very good. Performance is the best. Build quality is good, the car lasts forever. It doesn't look very good, but ok. The costs are ok. It takes about 10-12 liters to 100 km.

Subaru Forester Turbo S — This is my current car, it's a Turbo S and is a good compromise between practicality and performance, drives great, plenty of room for the kids, can be a bit thirsty though. Had better!!! Holding out for a 944 Turbo.

I Like Everything About This Car - Very Happy I Bought It. — Handles well, good gas mileage, comfortable. Nice and small for an SUV, but big enough to haul plenty of 'stuff'.

Good Car Overall By wolfman1692

Only recently bought it but it has been good so far. Only down negatives are that it needs a better automatic transmission and a few extra inches of space would make a huge difference. Overall satisfi... Read More

This Is A Good Choice For New England Winters. By toyotaron

It's A Wonderful Ride. By Lago108

This car can go fast and I feel incredibly safe at 80 mph with no shimmy or shake. Getting out of tight spots is a snap the way it jumps on a dime and the handling is tight - so much fun to drive and... Read More
