Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2019 Lexus Is worth?
A 2019 Lexus Is has a median retail value of $25,354, with most appraised between $19,761 and $27,717. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $7,000 across 13 recent sales — the middle 50% between $5,400 and $9,300.
Why is the 2019 Lexus Is so cheap at auction?

For the 2019 Lexus Is that gap runs about 3.6× — $25,354 retail against a $7,000 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
