Auction archive FAQ

How much does a Ford Tempo sell for at Copart and IAAI?

Is a Ford Tempo cheaper at Copart or IAAI?

Median final bid over the last 12 months: Copart $188, IAAI $188.

What should I pay for a salvage Ford Tempo?

Work from the median final bid on this page, then adjust for the repair in front of you. A Ford Tempo 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 Ford Tempo sells for at auction?

Usually yes, and not evenly. Open the year links to see where the Ford Tempo final-bid curve flattens — that flat stretch is where salvage buying tends to pay best.

Are these final bids what a repaired Ford Tempo would sell for?

No. These are auction results for damaged or salvage Ford Tempo vehicles — the price at the close of the sale, before transport, fees and repair. Retail value sits well above them.
