Used 2014 Subaru Impreza for Sale nearLos Angeles, CA

How much does the 2014 Subaru Impreza cost?

Prices have held steady compared to this time last year, signaling a stable and predictable market for this model year.

There are 753 listings available, which gives you a moderate amount of inventory to compare. If you find a listing below $8,908.24, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2014 Subaru Impreza a good car?

Yes — the 5/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction, and the expert rating is 6.33/10. The standout strength is Safety at 9/10.

The 2014 Impreza fits you well if you want an affordable, versatile, efficient all-wheel-drive package with broad everyday appeal. The tradeoff is refinement: the overview and road-test notes both point to a car that can feel less polished than rivals, especially in technology and driving smoothness.

The market still shows 30.4% of listings as good or great deals, which suggests there are still worthwhile opportunities if you shop carefully.

Is the 2014 Subaru Impreza reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The overview frames it as a practical, efficient all-wheel-drive choice, while the expert notes add that its value case is strongest when you want traction and everyday usability without moving up to a larger vehicle. The reliability discussion also points to top-notch dependability from Consumer Reports, even as another industry forecast raises concerns about below-average reliability and mediocre initial quality.

The performance notes also suggest the drivetrain can feel sluggish and the CVT lacks sophistication, so long-term ownership risk for used buyers is less about outright durability than living with a powertrain that may never feel especially refined.

What should I look for when buying a used 2014 Subaru Impreza?

At 57% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has higher mileage or incomplete service records. Focus on overall condition, because the model’s value depends heavily on whether the car has been maintained well and whether any prior damage was repaired properly.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base 2.0i gives you standard all-wheel drive, Bluetooth, heated front seats, USB and auxiliary inputs, power windows, and air conditioning, while higher trims add features like upgraded audio, cruise control, chrome accents, a rear stabilizer bar, leather upholstery, automatic climate control, fog lights, and a rear-view camera. The base trim is the most stripped-down choice, so you should compare equipment carefully if you want more comfort and convenience.
• Powertrain: Every version uses a 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder Boxer engine with 148 hp and 145 lb-ft of torque. A 5-speed manual is standard on most trims, while Limited models use a CVT with paddle shifters; the CVT is tied to 27 mpg city, 36 mpg highway, and 30 mpg combined estimates.
• Safety package: The car includes 7 standard airbags, 4-wheel antilock disc brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and brake assist, and a crash-optimized structure. A rear-view camera is available, but blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, and similar features are absent.
• Infotainment: The base car gets Bluetooth, but the optional navigation system in Premium and Limited trims adds Aha smartphone integration, satellite radio, iTunes tagging, text-messaging assistance, touchscreen controls, and a 4.3-inch center display screen.
• Fuel efficiency: The CVT is estimated at 27 mpg city, 36 mpg highway, and 30 mpg combined, and the road test returned 29.7 mpg in mixed driving.

Which 2014 Subaru Impreza trim should I buy?

The 2014 Subaru Impreza is offered in 5 trim levels: 2.0i sedan, 2.0i Premium, 2.0i Limited, 2.0i Sport Premium, 2.0i Sport Limited.

Here's the short version:

• 2.0i sedan: This is the entry point if you want the lowest-cost way into standard all-wheel drive, heated front seats, Bluetooth, USB and auxiliary inputs, and the basic comfort equipment. It makes sense if you care most about value and can live without the nicer cabin and tech upgrades.
• 2.0i Premium: This trim adds 16-inch alloys, upgraded audio, cruise control, chrome accents, and a rear stabilizer bar, so it is the better everyday pick if you want a more complete feature set without jumping too far in price.
• 2.0i Limited: This is the best-value trim if you want the most useful upgrades, including leather upholstery, automatic climate control, fog lights, a rear-view camera, HD radio, and a 4.3-inch center display screen. It also brings the CVT with paddle shifters.
• 2.0i Sport Premium: This 5-door-only trim mirrors the Premium’s equipment but adds 17-inch alloy wheels, special interior fabric, and distinct rocker panels, so it suits you if you want the hatchback body style with a little more visual distinction.
• 2.0i Sport Limited: This is the most equipped 5-door choice, combining the Sport-specific styling with the Limited’s comfort and tech upgrades. It fits you best if you want the hatchback body style and the richest feature mix.

The safety package is strong across the lineup, but the available rear-view camera is still the main extra safety convenience beyond the standard equipment.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2014 Subaru Impreza?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop, but the best listings still deserve quick attention.

• Inventory: There are 753 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.

What is the 2014 Subaru Impreza's resale value?

The current average of $9,252 sits slightly below last year's $9,262.

That small decline suggests the market has been stable rather than volatile, which is usually helpful if you plan to resell later. A steady price pattern can make it easier to estimate what your car may be worth down the road, especially if you buy at a fair price and keep the vehicle in good condition.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2014 Subaru Impreza safe?

It earns an overall five-star rating from NHTSA and has been named a Top Safety Pick by IIHS.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

The safety content points to 7 standard airbags, 4-wheel antilock disc brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and brake assist, and a crash-optimized structure. The available rear-view camera adds some extra help, but the car does not include blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, or similar driver-assistance features.

Should I buy a 2014 Subaru Impreza or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2014 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2014 if:

• 30.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 57% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Subaru’s formula here is affordable, versatile, and efficient, but refinement and technology are weaker points.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $10,242, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $9,252 average.
• It adds a mid-cycle facelift and better interior technology.

The bottom line: If you want the lower purchase price and can live with the 2014’s rougher edges, it is the value play. If you’d rather pay more for a fresher cabin and improved tech, the 2015 is the better path.
