Methodology
Figures are medians and middle-half ranges of real instant offers in our price index with an amount above $0, grouped by the offer date. Windows end the day before publication (2026-10-17). Groups with fewer than 5 offers are hidden; summary facts use groups of at least 100. Condition figures use only offers matched to a form submission where the seller reported the condition. Medians are rounded to the nearest $25. Offers vary by vehicle, condition and location. Offers are not guaranteed.
