Buying the 2003 Subaru Impreza
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2003 Subaru Impreza for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2003 Subaru Impreza before buying one.
What to check on the Impreza
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. NHTSA has 62 owner complaints on file, mostly about fuel system, service brakes and fuel/propulsion system. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the figures tell you
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
How big it is
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back.
Who the Impreza suits
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Drive it on your own roads
A week with the Impreza answers more than any brochure. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
The cost of driving it
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Picking a year and a trim
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Ask us
Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2003 Subaru Impreza from us first.
Find me this car
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a 2003 Subaru Impreza for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the 2003 Subaru Impreza
Does CarmaCars sell the 2003 Subaru Impreza?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a 2003 Subaru Impreza before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Does the 2003 Subaru Impreza have recalls?
NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for it, in the table on this page. Ask for proof each was fixed.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
