VerdictWATCH

Unlike the median asking price shown above, True Value is anchored to 20 recent confirmed sales, normalized for mileage, and blends auction hammer prices (grossed up for buyer's premium) with real-world asking behavior.
Sellers are currently asking a median of $46,200 — about 51% above what these cars have actually been selling for. That gap favors patient buyers: negotiate from the sold data, not the ask.
