Review: 2004 Subaru Forester

Go to MYRIDE.COM for more car videos.
The biggest news in the 2004 Forester line-up is the addition of a 2.5-liter horizontally opposed, turbocharged engine (hence the moniker 2.5 XT).

@johnpa2006 Thanks for the review..........I just got one with roughly the same mileage..........I live in the south so I guess I'm gonna have to drive north to find some snow lol....look foward to some great adventures with this car!

does it only take premium gas since he said "Premium?" 

[johnpa2006]

I got a 2004 Forester XS used, its got 98k miles on it now.

This thing has got us through the worst blizzards every time.

I LOOK FOR REASONS TO GO DRIVE WHEN IT SNOWS.

SUBARU'S MAKE SNOW STORMS BEND OVER AND CRY TILL IT HURTS....

When my other car conks out I will replace it with another Forester as well.

Good mileage, low center of gravity, great handling in all conditions.

lots of cargo space as well.

bad review I must agree, I have an 08 xt sport and I love my red bitch... I gotta stage 2 cobb setup too=delicious...

[deeber223]

cool, does the 99 version have a low range gearbox?

[alernest]

In the US: In the UK, Europe Japan and Latin America they also offered the 2.0 normally aspirated (ours) and the 2.0 turbo (apart from the 2.5's)...

[MMK86]

Even the non-turbo models are 2.5's :D
