Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2012 Infiniti M worth?
A 2012 Infiniti M has a median retail value of $7,842, with most appraised between $5,781 and $8,980. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $675 across 9 recent sales — the middle 50% between $375 and $1,000.
Why is the 2012 Infiniti M so cheap at auction?

For the 2012 Infiniti M that gap runs about 11.6× — $7,842 retail against a $675 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
How accurate is this 2012 Infiniti M value estimate?
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.
