Default CoPart

Is anyone familiar with this? I have a friend who can get me in and was wondering if it's worth my time... all I have to do is find a car I want and I can put the cash forward through their account..

What are some of your opinions I'm interested to know?

Hmm yeah I was thinking about that, but I was wanting to take a nice car that would normally cost 10K and hopefully get it for little to nothing and rebuild... I hear people try to make a little extra money doing that, but I just wanna do it for a DD.. Just seein if it's a good way to go or not..

From what I hear cars used to go for way cheaper than they are now. The recent mass advertising has brought in a lot of new bidders that have driven the price of everything up. Good for the sellers though.

We send a lot of totalled cars to CoParts in Orlando at my work, they are legit.

They are legit but you will be bidding against people from all over the world so it's hard to get a great deal as Nycist said.

Most of the cars that I've seen on copart are hit pretty hard.

Well they have some nice bikes on there as well as other stuff.. But they recently had a Lancer EVO that just had some front end damage and needed a bumper and hood and such and it went for 5k. But yeah it seems pretty difficult to find a really nice car for cheap other than that rare occurrence.
