Frequently asked questions

How much is a 2016 Buick Enclave worth?

A 2016 Buick Enclave has a median retail value of $8,841, with most appraised between $6,862 and $10,183. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $1,050 across 76 recent sales — the middle 50% between $525 and $1,900.

Why is the 2016 Buick Enclave 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 2016 Buick Enclave that gap runs about 8.4× — $8,841 retail against a $1,050 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
