At Avon Auto Repair, we’re thrilled to showcase this 2017 Subaru Forester 2.5i Touring—an all-wheel-drive legend with the heart of a daily commuter and the soul of an explorer. With only 43,957 miles, this SUV is ready to take on Minnesota roads with a calm demeanor and a capable stride. Whether you’re driving through downtown Avon or heading up north for the weekend, this Forester is prepared to deliver safety, comfort, and performance in every mile.
Wilderness Meets Refinement
A Look That Says Go Anywhere, Gracefully
Wearing a sleek green exterior, the Forester Touring balances rugged utility with timeless style. It’s the kind of SUV that looks at home in a city parking lot and just as comfortable on a dirt road lined with pine trees. Its upright profile ensures visibility and cargo practicality, while refined detailing—like subtle chrome accents and Touring-specific design cues—add just the right amount of sophistication.
The black interior is a study in versatility. Durable, well-stitched materials create a welcoming space that’s easy to clean and hard to wear out. The panoramic sunroof floods the cabin with natural light, and the attention to visibility is a real plus for safety and comfort alike. With fold-flat rear seats, the cargo possibilities open up to accommodate bikes, luggage, camping gear—or just the weekly groceries.
Built for Blizzards and Beyond
Power, Control, and a Smooth Ride Every Time
Beneath the hood lives a 2.5L H-4 DOHC engine that’s perfectly matched for real-world needs. Thanks to variable valve control, this engine delivers smooth power whether you’re accelerating onto the freeway or gliding down a winding backroad. And paired with a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), the ride stays quiet, smooth, and efficient from start to stop.
This Forester’s not just about easy commutes—it’s got teeth for tougher stuff. Subaru’s signature Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive offers full-time confidence, especially when the roads get slick. Snow, sleet, gravel, or rain—it doesn’t matter. This SUV grips and goes, bringing peace of mind no matter what the skies have planned.
Features That Feel Thoughtful, Not Flashy
Touring Trim Means All the Right Touches
In true Touring fashion, this Forester is packed with amenities designed to make driving better, not busier. Dual-zone climate control keeps peace between passengers. The heated seats turn chilly winter mornings into a luxury. A power rear liftgate makes loading cargo less of a struggle, while the leather-trimmed seats add a touch of polish to your everyday ride.
Subaru is also known for intelligent safety tech, and this Touring model is no exception. Depending on configuration, you may find Subaru’s EyeSight Driver Assist system onboard—adding extra sets of eyes with adaptive cruise control, lane keeping support, and pre-collision braking. Add in a backup camera, intuitive infotainment system, and steering wheel controls, and you’ve got a well-rounded, tech-savvy cabin without overwhelming complexity.
High Value, Low Mileage, No-Nonsense
Smart Price, Smart Purchase
With just 43,957 miles and priced at $17,495, this Forester hits the sweet spot between affordability and longevity. Subaru’s reputation for durability isn’t just a marketing slogan—it’s a lived reality. Owners know these vehicles are built to go the distance, especially when well cared for. And this one? It’s just getting started.
Fuel efficiency is another reason this model shines. You’ll enjoy an economical ride without sacrificing capability, especially during long winter months when AWD becomes more of a necessity than a luxury. Combine that with the Touring trim’s upscale features, and this isn’t just a good deal—it’s a great one.
We’ve seen plenty of Foresters in our day here at Avon Auto Repair, but this one checks all the right boxes: great mileage, strong bones, loaded trim, and an all-weather attitude.
