What Kinds of Cars Can You Find at Auction?
What Kind of Cars are Sold at Michigan Auto Auctions?
I wonder how many in Michigan seriously consider an auction when buying a used car? 🤔
Most, I bet, search for used dealerships, not auctions.
But did you know that auctions can save you serious money? I’m talking about thousands of dollars in savings! For example, a Toyota, Honda, or Ford with 100,000 miles may still run you over $10,000 at a dealer, whereas here at Pontiac Auto Auction you could snag one for $2,500.
But does an auction have what you want?
Don’t you only buy classics at auction, like a 1955 Ford Thunderbird, 1961 Lincoln Continental, or 1969 Chevy Camaro?
Maybe you think only supercars, like Lotus, Bugatti, or Koenigsegg are sold at auction. 🏆
Or maybe you think auctions are full of junk! Yeah, lots of lemons and rust buckets only valuable to the salvage buyers and those looking for parts. 🤦
ALL WRONG! Pontiac auto auction is a remarkable place to find everyday mainstream used cars, alongside sports cars, classics, and yes junkers! That’s right. You don’t have to go to a used car dealer. Auto auctions often have better prices and more transparent condition reports!
Your next pickup truck or family minivan, project, classic, or even spare part may be sitting right here at Pontiac Auto Auction in Pontiac, just outside Detroit.
Here’s a short list of the variety of vehicles we sell.
1. Classic Cars
Classic cars are the crown jewels of classic car auctions. These automotive legends, steeped in history and craftsmanship, are the stars of the show. 🤩
Whether it's a meticulously restored '65 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 or a vintage Land Rover, classic cars command attention and often fetch top dollar. Collectors from around the world will flood classic car auctions for a chance to add one of these legends to their garage. 🏎️
But you don’t have to be a gazillionaire or fly across the planet to find a classic. Just drive over to our Pontiac lot.
2. New Cars
Auto auctions reach into the past but aren't stuck in the past. We have used cars that aren’t that used. We have makes and models from well-known automakers, and for all types of driving needs. 🛞
Newer cars tend to receive lots of bids, because of the price!!, so check the inventory frequently and mark your calendars.
3. Project Cars
Perhaps you have a passion for restoration or car building. If you love the mechanics under the hood or want to flex that hobby without spending a fortune, project cars are a hidden gem at auctions. 🧽 🔧
These vehicles need a bit of elbow grease, but they offer a canvas for customization and personalization. We do our best to list a full condition report on the auction site, detailing if parts are missing, whether the car is running or not, and what to expect.

4. Cheap Cars
So, auctions are not only for the everyday driver, but the collector, the dealer, and the enthusiast. They’re also for the dealer, the reseller, and those on a tight budget.
Pontiac often has some of the most popular mass-produced cars, like Toyota’s, Honda’s, Nissan’s, Ford’s, Kia’s, Hyundai’s, Jeep’s, and more passing through our lot every week. 👌💰
Many of our cars have been donated and are in better condition than other auctions and many used dealerships. It's a cost-effective way to get behind the wheel of a dependable vehicle. Most bidders aren’t looking for bells and whistles. They need a dependable vehicle they can count on for commuting, hauling, or vacations.
5. Specialty Niche Cars
What else could an auto auction have besides Toyota Camry’s, classic Ford’s, and a Corvette occasionally?
Pontiac Auto Auction also serves the niche markets. We have motorcycles, 4-wheelers, jet skis, trailers, off-road vehicles, retired police cruisers, RVs, and even lake-loving boats! 🛥️
We sell it all! You won’t find this kind of variety at a used car dealership. When you visit our inventory, filter by “vehicle type”. 🛵 🛺 🚌
6. Commercial and Fleet Cars
Not only do we auction off the odd and quirky, we can meet business needs. Our inventory usually includes commercial and fleet vehicles, such as cargo vans and trailers. 🚐
Pontiac Auto Auction meets lots of different needs with lots of different cars, trucks, vans, and more. No matter your taste, preference, or budget, we will often have something that works for you. 🏍️
