Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2024 Lexus Is worth?
A 2024 Lexus Is has a median retail value of $42,443, with most appraised between $37,547 and $44,069. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $15,250 across 15 recent sales — the middle 50% between $12,400 and $22,700.
Why is the 2024 Lexus Is so cheap at auction?

For the 2024 Lexus Is that gap runs about 2.8× — $42,443 retail against a $15,250 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
