Local auto auctions run year round, but it is often hard to find them.
Many times you can find car auction listings in your area in the
newspaper, but not much information is given. The listing will simply
just inform you that an auction is happening at a specified location.
This is fine for someone that is just looking to get used or repo cars
to sell and make some money off of, but what if you are looking for a
specific car? You might go to ten local auto auctions before the car
model you want is there.

Quite recently, this
problem has been resolved. With the power of the internet it is now
possible to search to see if an exact car make/model is going to be
available at local auto auctions. These listings are updated daily and
are packed with cars that are soon to be auctioned off in your area.
Whats even better regarding these online local auto auctions listings is
that both a picture of the vehicle and the starting bid are displayed
right in the search results. This is great because you get to see the
car way before the auction starts and you get to see if its a wreck or
not. I'm saying this because a lot of times the newspaper ads will say
that they are auctioning off a 2006 Dodge Viper. Then when you get to
the auction site the Viper's whole drivers side is smashed in. Having
pictures of each car prevents you from wasting time travelling to these
auctions just to be disappointed.
These online
databases of local auto auctions are very helpful if you are looking to
both save time and search for a specific vehicle in your area.
There
are many car auction directories and databases available. Make sure you
use one that is loaded with the most vehicles near you and contains the
best pictures and information about individual cars as possible.
