I don't see anything about a salvage title or any evidence of damage in the photos. Primary damage is listed as "normal wear."

Doesn’t look like a salvage titled car to me. Maybe I’m missing something. I think someone is just trying to flip it on Copart. It only has 297 miles on it. “Primary damage” is listed as normal wear. “Buy it now” price is $110,000.

In the description it says "Miscellaneous Damage and Missing Parts" but I agree, I could not see any damage.

The listing shows clear title, not salvage. Of course it also says the ACV (actual cash value) is $150k too.

That's because Copart's primary business is auctioning off wrecked cars that have been declared totaled by insurance companies with salvage titles. In this case, the site is being used to flip a car with a regular title.

This ^^^^^^^

This is probably about one of three cars a year that go through COPART that aren't on salvage title. It's what COPART is, a salvage yard.

Doubt it’s a true salvage. That car was built the same day as my Zeus. Only 19 cars behind mine. Built on December 08 2020.

Possibly a stolen vehicle off a dealer lot, recovered and disposed of by insurance.

Even if it is not a salvage title this car’s auto check title status will show that it was sold through a salvage auto auction , and need an explanation for the rest of its life , it will also show up on a CAR FAX report so the future buyers will always question why was it in a salvage auto auction? It is kind of like stepping in **** , it maybe only on the bottom of your shoe but you have to convince the people around you that you didn’t **** your pants , only the stigma of the salvage auction will last the lifetime of the car.

On another note a lot of exporters buy vehicles on Co Part’s auction site so it may be targeting foreign buyers
