Torrance Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

In Torrance, we see a lot of different vehicles come through our hands. Sedans like the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Forte are common, especially models from 2012 to 2016. Many of these cars have high mileage and sometimes have issues like worn out suspensions or minor engine problems. Interestingly, older trucks, like the Ford Ranger and Chevrolet S10, are also popular, often with rust or body damage from years of weather exposure. We’re noticing that SUVs, especially models like the Honda CR-V and Jeep Cherokee from the late 2000s to early 2010s, are still sought after, but newer models are starting to decline in buys. On the flip side, some vehicles, like the Dodge Dart and Nissan Sentra, have become harder to sell because they tend to have transmission troubles and electrical issues that make repairs costly. Recently, we’ve seen fewer junk cars, as more owners are fixing them up or replacing rather than selling. The market stays pretty steady, with prices fluctuating only slightly over the past few months.
