All the bumpers look good. Glass is good on the white car some on the RED. Amazing how good shape the bumpers are ESPECIALLY the white rear looks new. Wing on the RED.I am checking out one in our local wrecking yard .

Re: 2 svx's on copart

I have never seen that website. it is very cool. How does it work? Will any bid be accepted or is there a reserve? Can anyone buy a car or do I have to be a dealer. Also, If I win the bidding there do I just go pick the car up?

Re: 2 svx's on copart

The bad thing about copart is all the fees, it will cost you about $500 in fees PLUS what you bid.....which generally makes it too expensive on the cheaper cars

Re: 2 svx's on copart

Copart started out as a dealer/dismantler auction that's slowly trying to appeal to a larger buying public. The 'basic' Copart membership is cheap but only allows you to bid up to $1000 on a car without an additional security deposit. They don't collect sales tax (at least not in Utah) so you have to have some kind of vehicle reseller's or dismantler's license to buy most of their cars, plus a tax ID number to buy, and the fees include a buyer's fee, an online bidders fee (which is how most buyers bid), a lot fee, a gate fee, possible storage and relisting fees if payment is delayed, etc., which are, in my opinion, excessive. If you can't jump through all the hoops to be a registered buyer yourself, sometimes there are local dealers that will bid on Copart lots for you for an additional price. I've bought at many different kinds of auctions over the years and Copart seems to be the most bewildering of any of them.

In addition, it's difficult to preview the vehicles in-person, and forget about hearing them run or driving them- the sales lots are huge and poorly organized. It's probably not worth the bother for the average buyer to try to get an SVX from Copart.
