WHY THIS FORESTER STANDS OUT
Complete Mechanical Peace of Mind: The notorious Subaru head gasket concern has been completely solved for you. At 91,018 miles, a comprehensive engine refresh was completed at Dan's Auto Center. This extensive job included brand-new cylinder head gaskets, resurfaced cylinder heads, a brand-new timing belt kit with a new water pump, a new thermostat, a resealed oil pump, a new rear main seal, new drive belts, and a fresh coolant flush.
Incredible Maintenance Trail: This vehicle comes with an astounding 47 detailed service history records. It was primarily cared for at local dealerships like Lithia Subaru of Oregon City and Wilsonville Subaru throughout its life. There is no mystery history here—just consistent, proactive, professional care.
Turn-Key Ready: Within the last few thousand miles, this Subaru has also received new valve cover gaskets, fresh spark plugs, and a new ignition wire set. Its most recent engine oil and filter change was just completed in March 2026, meaning it is ready to drive home today.
Ultra-Low Mileage: Finding a classic, well-built Forester with under 100,000 original miles is incredibly rare. This car has been driven sparingly and has plenty of life left to give.

Whether you need a dependable daily driver, a confident mountain commuter, or a weekend camping rig, this fully updated Forester S offers unmatched value, longevity, and timeless style.
This is a rare opportunity to own an exceptionally serviced, low-mileage Pacific Northwest favorite. Come see it today and experience the value for yourself!
