Frequently asked questions

How much is a 2019 Subaru Wrx worth?

A 2019 Subaru Wrx has a median retail value of $17,657, with most appraised between $15,000 and $22,000. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $3,900 across 31 recent sales — the middle 50% between $3,050 and $5,200.

Why is the 2019 Subaru Wrx so cheap at auction?

For the 2019 Subaru Wrx that gap runs about 4.5× — $17,657 retail against a $3,900 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
