Frequently asked questions

How much is a 2005 Infiniti G worth?

A 2005 Infiniti G has a median retail value of $3,988, with most appraised between $1,900 and $5,593. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $600 across 14 recent sales — the middle 50% between $325 and $625.

Why is the 2005 Infiniti G so cheap at auction?

Because auction lots are not retail cars. Most carry collision or flood damage, a salvage or rebuilt title, or are dealer-only liquidations sold as-is with no warranty. For the 2005 Infiniti G that gap runs about 6.6× — $3,988 retail against a $600 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.

Prices reflect live Copart and IAAI sale data from the last 180 days. They are most useful for: gauging salvage rebuild margins, comparing private-party asking prices to the auction floor, and spotting overpriced dealer listings. For a clean-title retail estimate use the depreciation calculator.
