Why it matters

What to know about US cars

A US price looks attractive, but it often hides an auction history. Here is what the LevelCar report checks.

Copart / IAAI lotAuction, sale type, declared damage and bids by VIN.
Accident & rebuild historyWhether the car was wrecked, the damage type and its price impact.
Mileage vs the normWe compare the odometer with the typical mileage for the year and model.
Fair price vs marketWhere the price sits versus the market median — overpay or a deal.
