“AWD, honest miles, fair price — the Crosstrek holds its value for a reason.”

Analysis

The Crosstrek is the car that refuses to depreciate, and this 2016 2.0i Premium shows why: standard all-wheel drive, 8.7 inches of ground clearance, roof rails, a backup camera, and Hyper Blue paint that photographs like a much newer car. At 118,787 miles the miles are honest for a 10-year-old, and the photos show a clean, straight example on the Premier lot.

The price is the reason for the badge: $15,099 sits right at the market. Edmunds puts the average list price for a 2016 Crosstrek near $14,622, dealer-retail clean is about $10,931, and comparable ~118k-mile Premium listings ask $13,998–$15,700. This car is priced like the comps, not under them — but for a Crosstrek, priced-like-comps is a fair deal, because these cars sell at ask. Add Premier’s included 26-month/26,000-mile warranty and in-house financing as a backstop, and you have a car you can buy at the number and drive for years. Get the CVT service history checked before you sign, then drive it home.
