2001 Subaru Forester Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers appreciate the 2001 Subaru Forester for its reliability, all-wheel drive, and impressive cargo space. Many love how it handles in various conditions and enjoy the comfortable ride it provides. However, some noted that its design isn't the most appealing and that it lacks speed, particularly without a turbo. Despite some minor drawbacks, most agree it's a practical and fun car to drive."
Well this use to be my mom' s car so now i ride it harder than she ever did....plus she's an older girl but she keeps up NICELY! I love the clearance the all wheel drive the comfortable room the amazing cargo space the durability of this car and the nice softer purr of the engine and i love the sound system...my sub woofer is right under my seat and it ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!
July 17, 2008Extremely reliable car with enough power to get around. Excellent Build Quality and extremely reliable. Low Cost of ownership relative to other vehicles. Interior colors of Gray and wood tones is not really the best for me. The exterior two-tone is a bit lame but for me, the yakima roof racks add a little more aggressive look. For a car with it's capacity and all-wheel drive. I get around 23 city and 25/26 Highway. The only thing stopping this car to be fun to drive is the fact that the gas pedal is too sensitive and the steering isn't quite sharp enough. It can take turns fine...but it just could use a more solid, directed feel.
April 5, 2012This car can fit a ton in the back end looks good with a roof rack. It isn't that fast but it is an auto with no turbo. Hit a deer with it and nothing mechanical wrong just body work that needed done. All around a good small sport utility vehicle

January 27, 2010It has a very nice performance, it's a very easy car to drive. So far, in my eight years with this car, I haven't had any issues with needing repairs or something like that. About the appearance, it's not something I'd buy but it's ok. And of course, any Subaru is fun to drive.
October 8, 2009I bought the Subie in 2006 for my teenage daughter to drive. She just got her license. Easy to handle, side airbags, AWD (we live in NH), easy to see out of (she's 5'2"). Fun to drive. Gotta love the huge sunroof and the frameless doors...
July 24, 2007Use this Subaru to get off the beaten trail every once and a while. With excellent all-weather performance and all-wheel drive this wagon can take you to the hills or rivers and bring you back in comfort. Great for camping and driving on winding roads through rain or snow.
November 23, 2011Its my grandmas, good acceleration and good traction control. it handled well on pavement and gravel roads
March 4, 2008its low, its fast.. not exatly a big saver on gas.. but its a great ride for the expense, cruises nicely on the road and corners real nice, doest give much slip or skid given it some hard runs and holds up great.
