I've found lots from dealers that had most auctions or impressive repairs. Remember to check every vehicle of your interest at Copart and IAAI at autoAstat.

This week I am taking a look at the most researched car of this week: 2016-18 BMW 3 SERIES (F30)
You can see that the average price for the car was the cheapest in February, 2022, then prices went up. Right now it is slowly going down. If you see great car that matches your budget - go for it! Now is the great time!
