The 2015 Subaru WRX: before you buy
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2015 Subaru WRX for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. This page sets out the 2015 Subaru WRX for buyers, in plain words.
Before you sign for the WRX
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Engine and fuel
The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
At 9.9 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 30 litres of fuel. Driving 300 km costs roughly $51.99 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,400 a year for 15,000 miles.
When the WRX makes sense
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
What the WRX is like
As a compact car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. EPA lists 340 litres of luggage space, enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Rent it for a week first
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent the WRX for a week and see how it fits your life. A week with the WRX answers more than any brochure.
Which one to look for
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Within the 2015 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
Running costs
Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. 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.
