Performance – acceleration, Decent braking, excellent handling, very good, much improved over previous generation Build Quality – Very good, only needed minor repairs, some cheap pieces, some minor squeaks and rattles Appearance – Good looking car, don't love the grey bumpers Cost of Ownership – 25-26mpg, very good mileage from a brick shaped, AWD car. Fun Factor – is this car fun to drive? Yes, it is very fun to drive, and has a good ride which is a hard combination to get right. It's really fun in the snow with snow tires.

Reliable as hell, never needs repairs! Always starts, good fuel economy, good off-road with car-like performance on-road. Would suggest this AWD to anyone looking at a little 4X4. It tows a trailer well, goes though snow incredibly well and can be had with a 5 speed manual, which many others can't. With the 2.5L 4 cylinder, has just enough power to whatever you need with great fuel economy. Best of both worlds!

The 2003 Subaru Forester is a fantastic blend of reliability, capability, usability and even performance. It uses a 2.5 liter boxer 4 cylinder which makes 165hp mated to a 4 speed auto or a 5 speed manual, with a full time AWD system, And two different trims X and XS, X being the base and XS being the more premium. The 2003 Subaru Forester is a very reliable car, it is built to last, the 2.5 liter H4 is a fantastic engine except for its one major problem being head gaskets, (Of course that being true of all the Subaru 2.5 H4s from that era.) But if (when) the head gaskets are in good shape, the 03 Subaru Forester is a truly remarkable feat of reliability and capability. The 03 Forester is truly remarkable in snow and ice, I live in a place with harsh winters and I personally have never gotten truly stuck with this vehicle. But it is not just snow and ice that this car will tackle, it will keep up with a jeep on an "off road" trail or that guy's Honda without a muffler at 3am, you know who I'm talking about. The 03 Subaru Forester is also very practical, with 64 cubic feet of cargo room and plenty of leg room in front and in back and a towing capacity of 2,500lbs It'll get you, your family, your stuff and your boat where you need to go with relative ease. I would consider myself a car enthusiast, you don't know me so you'll just have to take my word for it, but I think that this car is genuinely fun to drive, obviously there are funner cars to drive out there, but for what it is, it handles really well and it's pretty peppy, my Forester has the manual transmission which also adds to the fun factor. All of this to say, obviously a brand new Subaru Forester or Toyota Rav4 or Honda Crv is going to be better, but for $5,000-6,000 I truly don't think there is a more capable, reliable, practical or fun car for the money. But don't take my word for it.

holds lots of stuff. doesn't break down like american cars. handles decently for a steel box with wheels. way too slow for my tastes. four wheel drive a must have for snowy conditions, also makes empty parking lots in winter much more fun
