Vol.187

June 9, 2026

May 25 - May 31, 2026

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.

My personal pick of the week!

2025 BMW 8 Series

Final bid: $43,700 USD

The 2025 BMW M850i xDrive is a premier grand tourer powered by a 4.4L twin-turbo V8 engine that produces 523 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. The cabin balances high-performance with flagship luxury, featuring a 12.3-inch central touchscreen, multi-functional Merino leather seats, and a standard 16-speaker Harman Kardon surround sound system.

3. The most interesting lots

The best cars this week that deserve your attention

2016 Chevrolet Corvette

Final bid: $40,250 USD

The 2016 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 1LZ is a track-ready supercar powered by a supercharged 6.2L LT4 V8 engine that cranks out a massive 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. It delivers blistering supercar performance with a 0-60 mph time of just 2.95 seconds when equipped with the available 8-speed automatic transmission.

1969 Chevrolet C10

Final bid: $28,750 USD

The 1969 Chevrolet C10 is a standout member of the celebrated "Action Line" generation of pickups, introducing a refreshed front grille with the Chevrolet nameplate stamped across the center and the iconic bowtie logo moved to the hood. It stands as a prime example of a vintage workhorse transformed into a striking modern street truck.

2017 Nissan GT-R

Final bid: $44,000 USD

The 2017 Nissan GT-R Premium benefits from a major mid-cycle refresh, boosting its handcrafted 3.8L twin-turbo V6 engine to 565 horsepower and 467 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via a more refined 6-speed dual-clutch transmission and the sophisticated ATTESA E-TS all-wheel-drive system for launch-control-fueled, supercar-slaying acceleration.

4. Scam of the week

I've found cars from dealers that had the most auctions or extensive damage and apparent repairs. Remember to check every vehicle of your interest at Copart and IAAI with autoAstat.

2023 Chevrolet Tahoe

Auctions: 11

Selling this vehicle will be difficult. The previous condition is just horrific!I would stay away from it!

2010 Subaru Forester

Auctions: 138

It's always important to check autoAstat before buying cars at salvage auto auctions.

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.
