Do you think that an upgrade would be doable for a non-XT Touring?

Congrats on the car! I just got a limited myself. Where is the switch that controls the electric folding mirrors? I really miss having this feature. I lived in Japan for 4 years and the cheapest of cars had them there. It’s a shame those aren’t a standard feature.

I just bought my 2020 Abyss Blue Pearl Limited yesterday. We have a 2017 Forester Touring XT so the power is defintely a little underwhelming compared to the XT. I will be using the car to commute so gas mileage was a bigger concern for me, hence the tradeoff. I absolutely love the interior. The head unit is such an upgrade compared to the Forester. I think the speakers sound a little better as well. It’s fairly easy to modify most of the settings such as auto stop/start. The lane keeping is light years better than the Forester IMO. I’ve put about 90 miles on it so far, and am getting around 37 MPG with mixed highway and city driving. I think that you probably can’t go wrong with purchasing one of these.
