What Subaru WRX do most buyers choose?

The Subaru WRX years with the most listings are 2023, 2024, and 2025.

These higher-volume years tend to be the easiest to shop because you get more inventory to compare, which can make it simpler to find the right trim, colour, and price. They also often attract more attention from used-car shoppers because newer model years usually balance modern features with broader availability.

What is the Subaru WRX's resale value?
