Subaru Forester marketing

[jasbart]

Yesterday I brought my 2023 Forester Premium in for its one year check up. All went well, 10,000 miles, no problems, rotated tires, went home. That night I received an email from the dealership offering to sell me a brand new 2025 Forester Premium for $10,489 plus my 2023 Forester. I haven’t taken the time to do the math, but I’ve never known a car dealership to do anyone any favors. That said, is this an offer I should at least consider?

Thanks everyone, Jim

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. If you're happy with the car service it well and drive it till it falls apart.

Subarus seem to hold their values more than any other. They can make a profit on two...so why not, from their standpoint.

Everyone who owns a Subaru is eligible for their buy back program after a year. Subarus have the best resale value of any automaker. Even if your Forester gets totaled and you file a claim with insurance, and it is determined a total loss. Your insurance settlement will be similar to your buy back price. I know because I owned a WRX that had extensive hail damage, and insurance covered it. Of course this is not what you want to happen to your Forester, but it will help a lot if it needs to be replaced. Only downside of insurance is your premiums go up. Overall, Subarus are a good investment. If you need another Subaru take advantage of the buy back. Yes, it does benefit the dealership more, but you do get a better price on a new one.

I have an Outback 2020 premium plus options with 3. 8 k miles and I stick to it . It has no much black plastic around the car to take care theses new version as to much black plastic in my opinion. I don't think so the engine as changed since 2020 it's the same we spent 35K plus taxes.
and i don't think so to put more money to get a 25 or 2026 model I stay with my 2020.
If there aren't any issues with the 2023 version stay with it. I don't like dealer they are too sneaky it's all about $$$$.
