How much is a 2008 Cadillac Sts worth?
A 2008 Cadillac Sts has a median retail value of $4,184, with most appraised between $3,450 and $4,696. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $550 across 12 recent sales — the middle 50% between $250 and $575.
Why is the 2008 Cadillac Sts so cheap at auction?

For the 2008 Cadillac Sts that gap runs about 7.6× — $4,184 retail against a $550 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.
