We just bought my wife a 2012 Outback with about 63k on the odometer. We bought it from the original owner, and by the maintenance records it appears to have been well cared for.

I do want someone for fluids, tuneups, and such. My wife loves the car so we want to to treat her right.

Thanks in advance!

I don't know of a Subaru 'specific' specialist, but ...

... both Rick's Automotive on South Patrick in IHB (next to Man Overboard Bait and Tackle)
and Seaside Auto Repair at the corner of Pineda and A1A in Satellite Beach have treated my 2007 Subaru Outback very good for the last
80,000 miles (started with Rick's at 55,000 ... then Seasisde about 90,000 and now at 135,000)

Started at Rick's then due to distance and recommendations I changed to Seaside and have been very pleased. Neither cheap,
but I don't think anyone is cheap anymore, and I'm willing to pay for trust and quality work.

Now that I've moved, I'm looking for a new mechanic in Merritt Island.
If I don't find a good one that is competent, trustworthy, fairly close, and convenient, I'll be going back to Seaside.

Good luck with your 2012 Outback.

I'm envious, but my 2007 LL Bean Outback (6 cyl) is still in too good of shape and running
too good to go newer. I love my Outback.

Sounds like you have a few to pick from. The good news is you are driving Subaru so you won't be Needing a shop all that much. I drive a2010 Forester.

Melbourne Volvo Suburu - the parts counter IS very helpful.  Not sure about the shop and the cost of skating through their service dept scares me -- but Ive had lots of help from the parts counter.
