MSRP:$28,500 – $32,000
The Subaru Forester S/tb-STi combines the versatility of a compact SUV with the performance-focused character of a turbocharged Subaru. Its upright profile, five-door body, and practical cabin make it suited to everyday driving, while the all-wheel-drive system adds confidence across changing road conditions. Seating for five and 14.3 cubic feet of luggage space provide useful everyday capacity without sacrificing its sporting identity. MacPherson strut suspension at both ends supports a straightforward chassis layout, complementing the Forester’s blend of practicality and performance.
For the 2000 model year, the Forester S/tb-STi uses a turbocharged 2.0-litre flat-four engine producing 237 hp at 6,000 rpm and 228 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. A four-speed automatic transmission delivers power to all four wheels. AutoSpecsHub lists a top speed of 137 mph and a 0–60 mph time of 6.6 seconds. With a curb weight of 3,131 lbs, it pairs strong turbocharged output with the everyday usefulness of a compact SUV.
