Used 2024 Subaru WRX for Sale nearOttawa, ON

How much does the 2024 Subaru WRX cost?

Prices have softened 12.14% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 212 listings available, which suggests you should have a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Subaru WRX a good car?

The 2024 Subaru WRX stands out because it keeps the formula that made the nameplate famous: a turbocharged Subaru Boxer engine and standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. It is also a sedan only, which gives it a more focused, performance-oriented identity. For buyers who want a practical sports car with genuine all-weather capability, that combination remains the WRX’s biggest draw.

For 2024, the WRX GT sits at the top of the line-up and comes with adaptive dampers and an 11-speaker Harman Kardon audio system. The broader WRX range also offers a six-speed manual transmission, while the automatic Subaru Performance Transmission is available only on the GT. Subaru’s EyeSight driver assist suite is fitted across most of the line-up, adding features such as lane departure prevention, advanced adaptive cruise control with lane centring, automatic emergency steering, and reverse automatic braking, although reverse automatic braking and a vehicle hold function are exclusive to the CVT.

There are trade-offs, though. The WRX’s pros are its fun-to-drive character, great handling, and standard all-wheel drive, but its cons include outdated technology and poor fuel economy. Even so, the 2024 Subaru WRX remains appealing because it blends everyday usability with the kind of performance hardware and road feel that continue to define the model.

With 34.0% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market offers a decent number of value-oriented opportunities.

For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is most likely to come from the car’s performance-focused hardware and the costs that can follow if it has been driven hard.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Subaru WRX?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully without expecting every listing to be a bargain.

• Deal availability: 34.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 212 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.14% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $34,183 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Subaru WRX's resale value?

The current average of $34,183 CAD sits slightly below last year's $38,906 CAD.

That price movement suggests the WRX has softened enough to give future sellers less room to command a premium than they could a year ago. If you buy at today’s average, you may have a narrower cushion for depreciation than if you had purchased earlier in the cycle. On the other hand, the current market may help you enter at a more realistic price point, which can make eventual resale easier to absorb.

Should I buy a 2024 Subaru WRX or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 34.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.14% compared with last year.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $31,782 CAD, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $34,183 CAD average.
• The 2023 keeps the same sporty, manual-friendly character.

The bottom line: If you want the newer model-year pricing context and a decent share of value listings, the 2024 is the cleaner default choice. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2023 is the better path and still delivers the WRX’s core appeal.
