Vol.140

July 15, 2025

June 30 - July 6, 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.

Progressive Insurance was the leader in sales this week. They sold 13,636 cars. They are considered the best insurance company to buy from. State Farm Insurance followed with 11,096 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!

2023 Audi R8

Final bid: $121,500 USD

The 2023 Audi R8 Performance is a high-performance supercar known for its screaming, naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10 engine. As one of Audi's last V10 models, it blends race-car performance with a comfortable, tech-filled interior, making it a highly desirable and engaging sports car.

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.
