2005 Subaru Forester XS review from North America
"The Forester is a fantastic car to own."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car is perfect.
General comments?
I love the car. It gets great gas mileage and handles very well. My wife has a 2005 Nissan Altima; but we prefer the Forester many times over. The Forester has sufficient power for entering the highway and is very comfortable on long road trips. It is spacious enough for family, pets, and hauling building materials and lawn and garden supplies. I wish that I had purchased a Forester earlier, this car is great!
