Picture yourself winding along a back road between Troy and Schenectady, feeling the confident grip of a car built for more than the daily commute. Maybe you’re heading to Albany, New York, for work or planning a weekend trip past Colonie. Either way, you want a fun, practical car ready for whatever comes next.
That’s where the new Subaru WRX for sale at Subaru of Troy comes in. With sharp handling, turbocharged power, and the versatility of standard all-wheel drive, the WRX is a performance sedan that doesn’t ask you to compromise.
One of the first things you’ll notice about the Subaru WRX is how thoughtfully it’s designed for both thrill and convenience. The available Keyless Access with Push-Button Start means no more fishing in your pocket or bag for your keys. Just walk up, hop in, and hit the button — perfect when your hands are full with coffee or a laptop bag.
And once you’re on the road, the available Blind-Spot Detection and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert give you an extra set of eyes. These features ease the process when you’re backing out of a tight parking spot. Also, the 2024 Subaru WRX earned the prestigious IIHS Top Safety Pick award, receiving “Good” marks across critical crash tests, including small overlap, original moderate overlap, updated side impact, acceptable or better headlights, and pedestrian crash prevention.*
If you enjoy a responsive car, you’ll appreciate the WRX’s electronically adjustable dampers (available on certain trims). With the push of a button, you can adjust the suspension for comfort or sport. Imagine heading through Colonie’s winding roads — soft for the rough spots, firm for the corners. This flexibility makes the WRX feel like two cars in one: a daily commuter and a weekend toy.
There’s a WRX trim for just about every kind of driver near Troy, Albany, and beyond. The WRX Limited brings luxury into the mix with its power moonroof, letting in fresh air and sunlight on a nice day. You also get upgraded interior materials and additional driver-assist tech. This trim hits that sweet spot for many buyers between sporty and refined.
At the top of the lineup, the WRX GT stands out with features like reverse automatic brake, which can stop the car if it senses an obstacle while you’re backing up — a helpful touch when parking in tight city spaces. It also comes standard with the adaptive dampers we talked about, plus Recaro sport seats that hold you in place during spirited drives.
The WRX tS is a special variant that ditches the moonroof (for reduced weight and a lower center of gravity) and adds unique badging and suspension tuning, appealing to the purists who want that raw, focused driving experience.
Our finance center makes planning your WRX purchase or lease simple, thanks to easy-to-use tools on our website. The Payment Calculator lets you adjust variables like down payment, loan term, and interest rate so you can see what works best for your budget — no guessing. It’s great for planning, whether buying your first performance car or adding to a collection.
Thinking about trading in your current ride? The Value Your Trade tool helps you estimate your car in just a few steps. (A quick tip: having your VIN handy can speed this up.) The trade-in value can go right toward your WRX, lowering the price you pay out of pocket. It’s practical and saves you time when you visit the dealership.

Every new WRX comes equipped with a 2.4L turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine, delivering an impressive 271 horsepower. This engine pairs with a 6-speed manual transmission (standard on most trims) for those who enjoy the tactile control of shifting gears. If you prefer quicker shifts without the clutch pedal, the available Subaru Performance Transmission (SPT) provides smooth, fast gear changes.

Thanks to standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, the WRX inspires confidence on slippery roads. Whether you’re navigating icy streets in Schenectady or handling heavy rain between Troy and Albany, the WRX’s power is distributed evenly to all four wheels. This balanced traction helps you maintain control in challenging conditions, making it a smart pick for drivers in upstate New York.
