Over 5,000 Flooded Cars Damaged By Hurricane Ian Are Up For Auction At Copart At Bargain Prices
Over 5,000 flooded vehicles damaged by Hurricane Ian are up for auction at Copart at bargain prices.
Cars damaged by floodings caused by remnants of catastrophic Hurricane Ian that swept through Florida in the US.
Some of these vehicles have salvage titles and some listed as non-repairable like a 2021 Bentley Flying Spur.
Cars up for auction includes 2021 Ferrari Roma, 2020 Rolls-Royce Dawn, 2022 Porsche 911 Turbo and 2022 Mercedes-Benz S 500 (S-Class).
If you are in the market for repairable water-damaged vehicles or non-repairable ones for projects, then you need to visit Copart as the car online action site currently has over 5,000 vehicles damaged by Hurricane Ian.
These vehicles were damaged by flash floodings caused by the remnants of the catastrophic Category 4 storm that swept through Florida in the United States few months ago.
Some of these vehicles have salvage titles and some are listed as non-repairable like a water-damaged 2021 Bentley Flying Spur luxury sedan that has a current bid of $5,400.
Current bids for some of these exotics on Copart are $17,200 for 2021 Ferrari Roma while a 2020 Rolls-Royce Dawn goes for $10,200. A 2022 Porsche 911 Turbo still have a bid of $7,300 while a 2022 Mercedes-Benz S 500 4Matic (S-Class) goes for $250.
A “flood reconditioned” 2017 Ferrari 488 Spider that “was recovered from a storm event” and underwent special treatments was attracting bids north of $100,000 while a 2017 Lamborghini Huracan still stands at $2,000.
Other cars up for grabs and their current bids includes a 2021 Aston Martin DB11 ($200), 2022 Mercedes-AMG G63 SUV ($50,500), a 2021 Bentley Flying Spur ($1,100), a 2022 Porsche 911 Turbo ($1,300) and a 2023 Land Rover Range Rover SE ($102,000).
While buyers know the present conditions of the flood-damaged cars they are buying on Copart, some of these Hurricane-damaged cars will still reach markets in Africa and probably Nigeria where they will sold to unsuspecting buyers.
