What is the deal with buying a car at a police auction? Specifically for New York state, how do you go about finding one? I've heard of some people getting great deals and I've heard from others that you actually have to be a car dealership to attend...which is true? Would it be obnoxious to call the town's police station (non-emergency of course) and ask them personally? Help!

When you buy a car at a police auction what kind of title do they give you? Our local police will be having a seized car auction next month...I though it might be a good cheap way to pick up a car for my teen daughter...Now I've never been to a police auction before so I have to ask do they give you a salvage title or just the paperwork for a sheriff's lien and expect you to get a title on your own? if it matters these will be sized DWI, DUI and not abandoned along the roadside cars...
police car auction/government car auction? What's the difference between the 2? which one's better? i've heard many stories that you can get cars for dirt cheap, but there must be a catch, rite? i mean, i already know that you buy the car "as-is" no warranty, and they usually only accept cash. i've looked on a few sites and found that some ppl buy fairly new audi's and bimmers for like 5000. the site i used was http://www.gov-auctions.org/ is this legit?

Would you consider buying a former police car at auction without seeing it up close beforehand? For a little more than $2k, a county near me is selling a number of former police cars on an online public auction site used by state and local agencies. The following is an example: Year: 2003 Make: Ford Model: Crown Victoria Mileage: 114,817 VIN: 2FAFP71W83X169857 Running Condition: yes Engine: 4.6L Transmission: A4 Tires: 225/60R16 Good Color - White Condition: GOOD The prices range from 2k to 3k right now, depending on mileage. The auction closes in the next hour or two, and I won't get to the physical site of the vehicles before the auction closes. At this price, is it worth putting down $2k for a former police car? I assume that the county has maintained the vehicles fairly well and that they are simply being retired. The pictures of the outside of the cars makes them all appear to be in decent condition and are listed as being in good condition, but there's no way to be absolutely sure. Thanks for your feedback.

Police Auction murder car w/ police report? I recently bot a car at a police auction (and it runs!) for $175. I would get a great kick out of filling out a 'police report' and taking a black marker, and crossing out the case # names/addresses of 'people involved', and all other 'important information.' It would read something like this: At 12:03 PM, ------ ------ was sitting in a 1994 Plymouth Acclaim registered to---- ----- in the parking lot of --- ----- Avenue. Victim was killed by 2 gunshots to the chest, according to the Medical Examiner ---- ------- - Officer ------- OK. So would there by anything illegal about this? I can't imagine, since there is actually no relevant information to support anything on this one. I am pretty sure I will get many answers saying 'Yes, I *think* it is illegal.' or 'No, I don't think it is illegal, but I don't know.' Please don't answer if you don't know... plenty of other pages 2 get 2 points. Some girls believe anything, you know... Perhaps some ketchup as supporting 'evidence'

Would you purchase a car from a police auction? Need advice on purchasing a good car for cheap? I need a good car for a low price (max $5000, I’m really trying not to finance a higher priced car), and I'm considering going to a police auction (although I know nothing about the process lol) but the thought that something terrible could have happened in those cars freaks me out. Do they tell you WHY the car was confiscated? Can you change the license plate number? If you know about buying good cars for cheap, please give me any information you can, advice, websites? Anything! Thank you for your time. =0)

Found a bunch of stolen shirts in a car we bought from a police auction. Where do we take them? We bought a car at a police auction for dirt cheap, but it was filled with clothes and a bunch of other stuff. We sorted through the clothes, and found some nice clothes, but some weird stuff too, like thongs and bras. But we did find about 16 Colorado Rockies (a baseball team) hoodies and tee shirts. They're brand new and have the security tag thingy on them. They look stolen, and they're all the same. The value's for the hoodies are 55 and the tee shirts 35. The tag says that they're from Sears, so should we take them back there? Or should we take them to the police we got the car from. No, I'm not keeping them.

When is the best time of the year to buy a car at an auction? I know that auctions are happening all the time, all year round, but when is the best time to find great deals a.k.a. "steals" at auto auctions? Are you more likely to find better deals at specific kinds of auctions (like police auction auctions where they sell cars by drug dealers, etc.) during certain times of the year? Basically, when do auto auctions have their largest inventory making it the perfect situation to find a great deal?
Cars from Police auctions - good deal or not? What about ex-police cars? I'm going to an auction tomorrow that has city-owned vehicles for sale - most of them are former law enforcement vehicles. I'm interested in the 2001 Impala, but was told by my friend that most of the police cars have no stereos, the back power windows are disabled, etc. Has anyone ever bought an ex-police car? Also, i've heard conflicting opinions as to whether or not they'd be in BETTER or WORSE shape than a regular car...any help?
