This 2008 Subaru Forester 2.5 XT Limited remained registered to its original owner in New York until it was acquired by the selling dealer in 2024. It is powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter flat-four mated to a five-speed manual transaxle, an all-wheel-drive system, and a limited-slip rear differential. Finished in Obsidian Black Pearl over black leather, the car is equipped with 17″ five-spoke alloy wheels, a hood scoop, a panoramic sunroof, automatic climate control, cruise control, a CD stereo, and a power-adjustable driver’s seat. This Forester 2.5XT has 89k miles and is offered by the selling dealer in Connecticut with the window sticker, sales documents, service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean New York State title.
The car is finished in Obsidian Black Pearl and has a hood scoop, a panoramic sunroof, fog lights, mudguards, roof rails, and power-adjustable side mirrors. Paint imperfections around the car can be seen in the gallery below.
The 17″ five-spoke alloy wheels are wrapped in 215/55 Michelin Cross Climate tires. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes, and the brake fluid was flushed in 2022. The power steering pump was replaced in preparation for the sale.
The heated front bucket seats are trimmed in black leather that extends to the split-folding rear bench. Amenities include a power-adjustable driver’s seat, a factory CD stereo, cruise control, and automatic climate control.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 150-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer indicates 89k miles.
The turbocharged and intercooled 2.5-liter flat-four produced 224 horsepower and 226 lb-ft of torque when new. Power is delivered to all four wheels via a five-speed manual transaxle and an all-wheel-drive system with a limited-slip rear differential. The clutch assembly, engine cover, fuel injectors, and spark plugs were replaced in 2022, and the air-fuel ratio sensor and one oxygen sensor were replaced the following year. An oil change was carried out in preparation for the sale.
