Frequently asked questions

How much is a 2010 Subaru Legacy worth?

A 2010 Subaru Legacy has a median retail value of $5,110, with most appraised between $3,929 and $5,842. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $425 across 31 recent sales — the middle 50% between $325 and $525.

Why is the 2010 Subaru Legacy so cheap at auction?
