Used 2009 Subaru Forester 2.5 X Premium for Sale near Aurora, IL

To be honest, I have never once looked at a Subaru Forester until about 3 months ago. What once used to be what I considered a station wagon is now more SUV-looking than ever. Performance as always from Subaru is solid, with the Symmetrical All Wheel Drive System. Braking is superb, and the car handles like a charm. I've never had any issues with the build quality of the car, although when the music is played at full blast, the doors will do some rattling.... May need some dynamats. The styling of this car is great... The Subaru Accessory guide is great, with front/rear bumper guards, side skirts, spoilers, etc. The sound system that comes standard is not that great, but it can easily be modified and the standard head unit already has an output for an aftermarket sub. You can easily add on Subaru Tweeters and a Sub, or go for an aftermarket sub. Gas Mileage on a small-size SUV like this is pretty good... Considering the way I drive, i get about 22MPG, compared to my old ML320 that got 13MPG. Overall, this is a fun car to drive around town

Great gas mileage, adequate acceleration, handles great. Would have been nice to have the turbo model and/or an extra gear in the automatic... a 5-speed auto or a manual would be much nicer. Very inexpensive to own, so far. This car does everything I need it to, and is fun to drive. Plus, my wife loves it!

We bought the 2009 Subaru Forester 2.5X Premium. It is a V4 engine but has great acceleration ability. Mileage is about 25-27 in the City. The AWD is just great! It handles bumpy roads with ease. We love the large moon roof. The ride is surprisingly quite on the Hwy's even with an open moon roof. The passenger side front seat is lower than the driver front side but one gets used to it after a while. I wish the sound system was of better quality (available in more expensive options). It is one of the most sleek crossover available in the market. Over all we would rate this vehicle a ***** rating. Remember, Subaru's usually last forever. Its worth investing in one!

nice quality and finish excelent fuel consumption VDC works in perfect combination with driver Brakes are first quality with very good stopping distances Leather seats offer great confort, even on large distances Huge sunroof offers a great view and seals very tight. no noise on high speeds

Traded in my 05 WRX for this car. The trade was painful but after driving the Forester, I am happy as the time I was driving the WRX. The new design is roomy and ergonomic. The heated seats are great in the winter and the leg room in the back is a great improvement over the old Forester and the WRX. Cargo space has been adequate and I recently moved a whole deck table and three chairs in one trip. The car drives with great handling and it is a lot of fun driving on gravel and off road. The only problem I'm having is the internal rattling in the dash area. I highly recommend this car to those who are about to start a family or are into the outdoors.
