Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2009 Subaru Impreza worth?
A 2009 Subaru Impreza has a median retail value of $3,865, with most appraised between $1,800 and $4,832. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $425 across 37 recent sales — the middle 50% between $400 and $675.
Why is the 2009 Subaru Impreza so cheap at auction?
Because auction lots are not retail cars. Most carry collision or flood damage, a salvage or rebuilt title, or are dealer-only liquidations sold as-is with no warranty. For the 2009 Subaru Impreza that gap runs about 9.1× — $3,865 retail against a $425 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
How accurate is this 2009 Subaru Impreza value estimate?
Prices reflect live Copart and IAAI sale data from the last 180 days. They are most useful for: gauging salvage rebuild margins, comparing private-party asking prices to the auction floor, and spotting overpriced dealer listings. For a clean-title retail estimate use the depreciation calculator.
