A used Subaru Impreza ac condenser carries a median asking price of $159, which is 27% higher than the Ford Mustang at $116. Supply also plays a role: Ford Mustang has 1,235 priced listings versus 529 for Subaru Impreza, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.

The Ford Mustang average ($153) runs 32% above its median ($116), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Our guide covers 10 model years for the Subaru Impreza (2016–2026) but only 8 for the Ford Mustang (2015–2023), so the Subaru Impreza data reflects a broader range of generations.

The Subaru Impreza ac condenser is interchangeable across 16 model years versus just 10 for the Ford Mustang — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.

At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Ford Mustang is 27% cheaper ($125 vs $171) — the gap narrows compared to the overall median difference.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used condenser

  • Check for bent or crushed fins — significant fin damage reduces heat dissipation and A/C performance.
  • Look for pinhole leaks by inspecting the tube surfaces for green dye residue (from prior leak detection).
  • Confirm the inlet/outlet line fittings match your vehicle — condenser plumbing varies across model years.
  • Inspect the mounting brackets and rubber isolators. Missing isolators cause rattling and premature wear.
