2008 Subaru Forester 2.5 XS Premium Wagon 4-Door with Alloy Wheels Description

2008 Subaru Forester 2.5L Premium Package with manual transmission in excellent condition mechanically and physically. Never smoked in so smells neutral and no stains or burns in upholsteryat all.
Rated 92 (Above Range) on AutoCheck and valued $15,000 so this is a real bargain! Everything works with no warning lights (except for tire pressure sensor; for which I have ordered a new set already..... will delete this once fitted).
This car was owned by a long-time employee at THE oldest Subaru dealership in the USA, so it has been well maintained, serviced & even mechanically upgraded to remain as reliable as a hammer, as well as drive smooth and solid.
New oil & filters, new spark plugs, new brakes & rotors, new battery, new tires, new alternator, new belts including new timing belt and upgraded STi head gaskets........so there is nothing to worry about for the next 80,000-100,000 miles besides oil changes and checking other fluid levels.(in a non-turbo Subaru like this, STi head-gaskets will last forever, not a cheap upgrade either as both the work and parts would usually cost a few thousand dollars)
A/C blows cold, and heated seats have two settings. Driver seat has fully electric adjusters, but the passenger seat is like a regular forester with no electrics.
This is the premium package so has disks all round instead of drums on rear, heated seats, auto-dimming rear-view mirror, power moon-roof (large sunroof), Wing-mirror turn-signals, uprated sound system and more.
Has clean title, and rated above average. Located in Greater Atlanta.

PS - This drives and handles like a dream, it's the last year of production for this shape, with low mile and as it has been well treated so it is the cleanest one I've seen anywhere and the only one in Aspen White & Tan.I sold my old standard 2007 one of these for $5,500 just over a year ago and it had 200,000 miles so they are a sought after and reliable model which is why I bought one again after I got sick of my Corvette breaking down all the time; but I also bought a Nissan Truck at the same time which is a little more ideal for my needs this summer so I am selling this (and my Harley) before I hit the road for a cross country tour. Might do a deal for both......... but to the guy who just sent an Offer for $5,500 you are not even close but you might find an older model with 200k to 300k or else a one with an Auto Trans for that price or a rebuilt title car and just get a mechanic to check it all over as you can still get good reliable cars this way on a tight budget. I advise Subaru, Toyota or Nissan with Manual transmission as they are the most reliable cars in the day and age, they will do a million miles.
