June 17, 2025

June 2 - June 8, 2025

1. Auctions sales statistics

The volume of cars at auctions has rebounded and returned to its earlier levels, ensuring a dependable supply of vehicles. Despite this temporary dip, there have been no significant disruptions in vehicle availability. Both auctions have consistently maintained a flow of cars, contributing to seamless operations and a stable inventory for buyers.
Performance metrics, including the number of cars sold and approval ratings, have not only weathered the minor reduction in car volume but are also showing signs of improvement and growth.
In summary, insurance auto auctions provide a stable and consistent environment, with evidence of car volume returning to previous levels. Operations continue to run smoothly, and key performance indicators are not only stable but also showing positive growth trends.

Top sellers of the week

Progressive Insurance was the leader in sales this week. They sold 14,256 cars. They are considered the best insurance company to buy from. State Farm Insurance followed with 13,662 cars sold. Geico insuranse sells cars at the highest bid, so it's worth considering them as a seller next time you're bidding.

2. Car of the week

My personal pick of the week!

2018 McLaren 720S

Final bid: $121,000 USD

The 2018 McLaren 720S Base is an extraordinary supercar that redefines performance and design. Built around a lightweight carbon fiber Monocage II chassis, the 720S features advanced aerodynamics, including active elements and a sleek "teardrop" shape, to generate significant downforce and ensure exceptional handling. Despite its immense capabilities, it offers a surprisingly refined interior with modern technology, making it a highly capable and engaging machine for both track and road.

5. Cars with the most bids

Cars that have the most bids are the ones that are most popular among buyers and have the most competition for purchase. It's important to note that just because a car has many bids, it doesn't necessarily mean it's the best deal or in the best condition. It's always important to thoroughly inspect the vehicle and do research on its history before making a bid.
