The 2018 Subaru Forester 2.0XT Touring AWD in Quartz Blue Pearl is a powerful and well-equipped compact SUV that blends turbocharged performance, premium comfort, and legendary Subaru all-weather capability. With 85,293 miles, this Forester has been well driven and continues to deliver strong reliability, confident handling, and everyday versatility.
Under the hood, this Forester 2.0XT Touring is powered by a turbocharged and intercooled 2.0L 4-cylinder DOHC engine paired with Subarus Lineartronic CVT. This turbocharged setup delivers impressive acceleration and responsive power, giving you extra confidence for highway merging, passing, and everyday driving. Subarus Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system comes standard, providing excellent traction and stability in rain, snow, gravel, and challenging road conditions. Whether youre commuting through the city or heading into the mountains, this Forester is built to perform with confidence.
Finished in Quartz Blue Pearl, this SUV stands out with a deep, vibrant exterior color that highlights its rugged yet refined styling. The Foresters bold body lines, raised stance, and functional design give it a strong and capable appearance, while the Touring trim adds upscale touches like chrome accents, LED lighting, and stylish alloy wheels. The result is a vehicle that looks just as comfortable in the city as it does on outdoor adventures.
Inside, the Touring trim offers a premium and comfortable cabin designed for both driver enjoyment and passenger comfort. Leather-trimmed seating, soft-touch materials, and refined interior accents create an upscale atmosphere throughout. The spacious interior provides excellent headroom and legroom in both rows, making it ideal for daily commuting or long road trips. Heated front seats, a power-adjustable drivers seat, and thoughtful ergonomic design help enhance comfort on every drive.
Technology is well integrated into the Forester Touring. The infotainment system features a user-friendly touchscreen with navigation, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto compatibility, keeping you connected wherever you go. Bluetooth connectivity, USB ports, and steering wheel-mounted controls make it easy to manage calls, music, and apps without distraction. A premium audio system enhances the driving experience with rich, clear sound throughout the cabin.
Versatility is one of the Foresters greatest strengths. The rear seats fold flat to create a large and flexible cargo area, perfect for groceries, luggage, sports gear, camping equipment, or pets. The wide rear hatch and low load floor make it easy to load and unload larger items, while roof rails add even more utility for bikes, kayaks, or rooftop storage.
Safety is a major focus, with Subarus EyeSight Driver Assist Technology helping to enhance awareness and confidence on the road. Features such as adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, lane departure warning, and lane keep assist work together to help protect you and your passengers in a variety of driving situations.

I like it
By Mark | on 11/27/2025 4:22:54 PM
Bought my 2016 Forester new and got about $4k off the sticker price. I maintain it very well and do the work myself. I’ve had to replace the shift safety interlock mechanism at around 80k miles, due to occasionally being unable remove the key from the ignition; replaced rear wheel hub at 130k miles; replaced infotainment head (radio) at about 100k miles. Biggest disappointment is the mediocre a/c that doesn’t blow very cold when it is really hot outside. It’s a very easy car to work on and maintain. New cars today are way overpriced, and I dislike the over abundance of angst inducing “safety” features so I’m going to keep my Forester and swap out the engine and trans. with salvage yard replacements when my engine and trans. give up the ghost.… - 4.0
Mostly enjoyed it until the computer began failing

Bought my "Pearl" '17 Subaru Forester used in 2020 or 21. The best things about it, hands down, were the great visibility from the big windows, high safety rating, ground clearance and rear passenger legroom + cargo space. It got decent gas mileage for mostly in-town driving. On the highway it had lousy road noise, so backseat passengers can't follow a conversation happening in front. I would have kept it until the wheels fell off, but the onboard computer started going haywire and the replacement cost was hefty for an 8 yo vehicle. Aside from road noise, my main complaints were the awful infotainment interface and tiny (useless) backup camera screen. So last November I decided to upgrade to the quieter, hybrid '21 Toyota Venza.…
