Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2004 Acura Rsx worth?
A 2004 Acura Rsx has a median retail value of $3,653, with most appraised between $2,950 and $5,858. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $650 across 8 recent sales — the middle 50% between $525 and $925.
Why is the 2004 Acura Rsx so cheap at auction?

For the 2004 Acura Rsx that gap runs about 5.6× — $3,653 retail against a $650 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
