Noticed Atlanta car...seemingly good price...has a "no" at the end. Any idea what this stands for? Other than that, auction sale prices are, least to me, unexpectedly high...that's good!

I found this surprising:

10/15/14 Manheim Atlanta $49,000 57,491 Avg SILVER 8G A Yes
10/08/14 Manheim Palm Beach $49,500 19,195 Avg BLACK 8G A Yes

Seemingly identical cars but for ~37K miles priced $500 apart. Anyone know what the difference is between wholesale (Manheim) and dealership? Do they list at a 15% markup with an anticipation that it will sell at 10% above cost?

I found those 2 particularly interesting too... maybe it's the color? Would a black in color, go for that much less??

Doubt it. Silver and black seem to command the same lesser price relative to the red and white. In and of itself, that pricing would indicate a bottoming out around $49K but I think we've seen that not to be the case. I think the people on this forum can make a greater distinction within this particular model than say a used car dealer that has to price any number of makes and models so that might explain the similarity in pricing. That's just a guess though.

Not sure what no stands for. Maybe it didn't reach a reserve and therefore did not sell?

The 2nd and 3rd seem like bargains. These prices are a bit stale now though.

I agree! That's why I was asking what the format was. $50K for 10K miles is great!

The BS market seems super sloppy. Demand on any given day is all over the place.
