Across 65 recorded USD sales the median final bid is $650, with the average pulled to $1,810 by the outliers at either end.
What damage do most Buick Electra auction lots carry?

How many miles do Buick Electra cars have when sold at auction?
Half of the 10 verified odometer readings sit above 114,447 mi and half below it.
What should I pay for a salvage Buick Electra?
Work from the median final bid on this page, then adjust for the repair in front of you. A Buick Electra with light front-end damage and keys sits near the top of the sold-price range; a water loss without keys sits at the bottom.
Does the model year change what a Buick Electra sells for at auction?
Usually yes, and not evenly. Open the year links to see where the Buick Electra final-bid curve flattens — that flat stretch is where salvage buying tends to pay best.
Are these final bids what a repaired Buick Electra would sell for?
No. These are auction results for damaged or salvage Buick Electra vehicles — the price at the close of the sale, before transport, fees and repair. Retail value sits well above them.
