Replying to: samirataustin (May 06, 2008 4:34 pm) I haven't gotten any quotes on Foresters yet, but the salesman I spoke with at Georgetown Subaru volunteered that their internet price for new Foresters was 300 over invoice. I figure that if he mentions that up front, that there might be some wiggle room. Best of luck in your search.

Help! I'm trying to decide between the 2008 vs 2009 Forester. I have a great price on the 2008 and like the visibility, and that it is a little smaller. The cup holders are too small to be useable. I thought the seats seemed a bit hard after being in it for a while. Will they "break in" at all? I'd like to hear any comments that 2008 or 2009 owners have pro or con about their vehicles now that they have had time to drive them. If anyone has driven both versions, comments comparing them would be helpful as well. Thanks! |

Replying to: sgloon (May 08, 2008 1:21 am) We were disappointed that the power seat became an LL Bean feature and not a Premium feature, though, because that was something we really wanted -- otherwise, we would not have bought the more expensive Bean. Also, the '09 has a coolant light instead of a gauge -- what's with that? And why did Subaru cripple the trip computer to not show distance till empty? And why should you have to upgrade the mirror to get a compass? Still, we like the '09 a lot. We bought one. (Does this thread belong in the 2009 Subaru Forester discussion?)

Replying to: dcwestby (May 08, 2008 3:47 am) The long drives were exactly what I was worried about. Are the 09 seats that much better for the long drives? I agree on the gas, but haven't been able to find a Manual Transmission vehicle with top carrying and cargo capacity I need that gets any good gas mileage. The 08 Forester was my compromise vehicle. The next closest was the Matrix/Vibe option. I had to rule that out as I can't get Thule racks on it (not for 6 months per Thule). And then the insurance cost for the Matrix/Vibe was going to be $300 more per year than the Forester.. If you have any suggestions for other options to look at (the Subaru is maxing me out on price) I'd love to hear it. |
