Question 1

What do vandalism 2022 LEXUS IS models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 11 recorded sales of the 2022 LEXUS IS with vandalism damage, the median was $19,725, from $15,200 to $25,250. That is 58% above the $12,500 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $16,500 a good price for this 2022 LEXUS IS?

Accepted Answer

402 comparable 2022 LEXUS IS listings sold at auction for a median of $12,500, spanning $5,550 to $19,600. At $16,500 this one went 32% above that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 3

This LEXUS IS sold without keys — does that matter?

Accepted Answer

Yes, usually. A missing key means the vehicle often cannot be started or moved under its own power at the yard, so its condition is harder to verify and buyers bid more cautiously. Replacing a modern key and reprogramming it to the immobiliser typically runs into the hundreds. It is one of the more common reasons an otherwise sound car sells below its comparables.

Question 4

What does a clean title mean for this LEXUS IS?

Accepted Answer

This 2022 LEXUS IS was sold on a clean title. A clean title means no total-loss brand was recorded at the point of sale, which is unusual at salvage auctions and typically lifts the price.

Question 5

How much below its undamaged value did this LEXUS IS sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2022 LEXUS IS's pre-damage retail value at $43,232. It sold for $16,500 — 62% below that. A gap this size is normal for auction vehicles: the buyer takes on the repair cost, the paperwork and the risk that damage is worse than the photos show.

Question 6

Is 44,357 miles high for a 2022 LEXUS IS?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2022 LEXUS IS listings at auction averaged 45,756 miles across 402 sales, so at 44,357 miles this one sits 3% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.
