About Brand:

  The Japanese company Subaru is one of the most famous manufacturers of cars on the market, which is highly appreciated by fans of outdoor activities. It was introduced in Japan in 1954.   All cars are assembled in Japan. Reliability of products is confirmed by the authoritative world ratings. Subaru's production volumes are relatively low. Since the beginning of its development, the company had to struggle for survival, as at small output volumes it was difficult to withstand competition in the global market. But that is changing. If in 2016 produced up to 900 thousand units per year, in the coming years, according to the company's plans, output will be increased to 1 million cars per year. One of the leading models in the world's security ratings is Subaru Forester.  When buying Subaru auto parts, it is important to detect counterfeits. For example: when looking at spark plugs, you can pay attention to the fact that the color of the package printing is different, at the places where the body is connected to the insulator there is no ceramic powder, the font and the clarity of the marking are different, the central electrode and the color of the core are not like the original, the insulator cone is poor-quality, the bending of the side electrode is different. As a rule, the non-original can always be revealed by the inconsistency of the package alone, which is true for all Subaru parts.
