Newark Insights: Junk Car Values and Trends

In Newark, we often buy a mix of older sedans, trucks, and SUVs. Vehicles like the Toyota Camry from the early 2010s are common, especially those with high mileage and some mechanical wear. These cars usually have issues like worn out brakes or tired transmissions, making them less attractive for repairs. Pickup trucks, especially Ford F-150 models from around 2012 and 2013, continue to be popular in our market. Many of these trucks have rust or accident damage but are still sought after for parts or scrap metal. Compact cars like the Hyundai Elantra from 2008-2012 are also common, but they often come with problems like failing some emissions tests or leaky head gaskets. Sports cars, such as Mazda Miatas, are less frequent but still appear, often needing cosmetic fixes or engine work due to age. Interestingly, newer models like the Honda CR-V from 2018 might fetch a higher price but are less frequently brought in because owners tend to hold onto them longer. Many of these cars have been in minor accidents, have faded paint, or need new tires. The demand for parts from these vehicles keeps prices steady, even while the market for newer vehicles stays more stable. If you’re thinking about selling a vehicle that’s seen better days, chances are it will go quickly since we buy many trucks and older cars that need some TLC.
