What is a 1994 Subaru WRX STI Type R worth today?
The Shifty Estimate is $38,200. That sits above the $28,000 median of actual sales because the median counts every car that sold, including high-mileage examples, while the estimate describes a clean, low-mileage one bought today. We rate confidence low: 7 public sales in a year is not enough to be firm, and the honest range is wide. Treat it as a starting point, not a valuation.

About the 1994 Subaru WRX STI Type R
The original WRX STI Type R established the template for high-performance all-wheel-drive sedans that would influence an entire generation. Built from 1994-2000, this JDM-exclusive variant featured the legendary EJ20 turbocharged boxer engine producing 280 horsepower, though many suspected the actual output was higher due to Japan's gentleman's agreement. The Type R designation indicated Subaru's most track-focused variant, with stiffer suspension, limited-slip differentials, and weight-saving measures. These early STIs dominated rally stages and inspired countless enthusiasts worldwide, though few made it to Western markets officially. Today, clean examples are increasingly valuable as collectors recognize the Type R's historical significance in establishing Subaru's performance credentials. The combination of rally pedigree, JDM exclusivity, and influential design makes these early STIs highly sought after.
