Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2009 Toyota Yaris worth?
A 2009 Toyota Yaris has a median retail value of $3,948, with most appraised between $2,366 and $5,250. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $825 across 57 recent sales — the middle 50% between $500 and $1,050.
Why is the 2009 Toyota Yaris 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 2009 Toyota Yaris that gap runs about 4.8× — $3,948 retail against a $825 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
