2001 Subaru Forester Usados en Venta

I purchased this car because I needed something more reliable to get me and my belongings 13 hours away to my new home. Four years later, and I still have it, and it has been running nicely. I love the look of the car overall. The seats are very comfortable. It comes with a 5-disc CD changer, which I have never used, but is a nice touch. It's very low-maintenance, especially compared to other, younger cars I have had in the past.

Was originally received as a gift from a friend who moved onto a new car of their own. The car was a gift, so I don't really want to dwell on the complaints, but as you can imagine, a near 20-year-old car will not look as it did when it first left the showroom. But the engine still runs great and strong, and I was advised by my mechanic that when you get a good Japanese motor, they can run forever.

I bought this car about five years ago - it was at the time a ten year old car with only 63,000 miles on it, as it had been driven very gently. It had a few dings and scratches so I was a little suspicious. I had never owned a Japanese car before, so I felt like I was taking a slight risk in purchasing it, but it was affordable and I had heard many stories about Subaru's amazing reliability. As it turns out, it's the best car I've ever owned. I've taken it on multiple 400+ mile road trips with never a problem. All it needs are regular oil and fluid changes to keep it in top shape. I have had to replace a few parts on the underbody, but being a 15 year old vehicle that has to deal with salt-filled winters (the winters are terrible where I live and salt is needed for the roads) it's understandable that a part here and there would rot away. The four wheel drive is stable and above all, safe and the boxer engine just keeps puttering along with no complaints. It's very comfortable and with the rear seats folded down, there is a ton of room in the back. The heat, AC and air all still work perfectly. The gas mileage does leave a little to be desired, I would expect better from a 4cyl (it only gets around 22 mpg highway) but the tank is huge, so it's great for long trips.
