Frequently asked questions

How much is a 2009 Volkswagen Eos worth?

A 2009 Volkswagen Eos has a median retail value of $4,992, with most appraised between $4,067 and $6,023. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $750 across 11 recent sales — the middle 50% between $175 and $1,050.

Why is the 2009 Volkswagen Eos 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 Volkswagen Eos that gap runs about 6.7× — $4,992 retail against a $750 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
