I'm trying to find production numbers for the 2014 Impreza, more specifically the WRX. What I was interested in is total # of Impreza's, and total number of WRX's. I came across cars101.com which has a massive amount of info on the specs and the sales numbers. On a forum I found that 20% of WRX's are hatches. these are the numbers I have so far :
2013 total sales: 424,683
Impreza 58,856 (112597 if u include crosstrek)
WRX (&STI) 17969
January 2014 WRX sales went up from 1306 to 1553 (1 of which was me)
thats a 19% increase (if I can do math right) which would put the 2014 to around 21315
When I was shopping for a WRX i kept on hearing they are sooo rare. 20,000 doesnt seem like a rare model, maybe when compared to a camry.
So in the end I drive 1/~4,000 hatchback WRX. not really an impressive number.

I've read elsewhere that the hatchback/sedan split on the WRX is closer to 50/50 and that for for the STI is 60/40 in favour of the sedan.
I'd completely believe that the overall split for the entire Impreza range is 80/20 though.
I'll try to find a source to back me up on those numbers.

That looks to be just one dealerships sales.

And that doesn't reflect overall sales?
I had a better source in one of the Jalopnik articles about the new 'rex. I'll scroll through later to find it.

Here it is: http://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motorami…
"WRX sales were about half sedan, half five-door hatchback."

I dont like that at all. I thought the hatch was suposed to be the rarer of them. that would put me at 1/14,000. I dont know how the Subaru sales people get off saying these things are rare. Maybe because rally wannabe's wrap them around trees?

Rare? Not even close, WRX sedans are rare. The only reason they're rare is because no one is selling
