Good Points

AWD, a good amount of cargo space, pretty good MPG for a AWD car (20c 26hw 03' model), great resale value, great for light off roading, Great bad weather (even snow), light weight for a suv. 5 star safety ratings all across the board except rollover which is 4


Bad Points

The ground clearance could be better. (NOTE THAT: this is only a factor in major off roading, and heavy snow. ) I have to agree with the other poster that the 15 gallon gas tank is annoying. though I still manage 300 miles pertank in city.


General Comments

I really have to say the Subaru Forester doesn't get enough credit in the world. This is my second car. My other was a Cavalier 97'. Although, I've driven alot of cars in my time. This is easily the best that I have so far, and I am nothing but pleased with the car. Don't let the pictures fool you this car looks more like a station wagon than a typical SUV and is light enough to pose as midsize car. Keep in mind though i own the x version which only has 170hp. This isn't a 'sporty' car, and isn't made for that, if your interested in that kinda stuff. The car's typical 0-60 is about 10seconds, so don't be suprised when it doesn't blow your mind. This is supposed to be the family type car. It doesn't have the Turbo and typically comes standard equiped. All and all I have to say this is the best car I've owned or driven. Highly recommended if you want a cheap awd, good gas mileage car.
