Suffolk County Police will be conducting an auction of vehicles that were confiscated.

WestHampton, New York

On Saturday, a range of "previously owned" cars such as a Mercedes, BMW, and Porsche will be up for auction at the impound yard of Suffolk Police in Westhampton.

The auction is anticipated to attract a full house and a competitive bidding atmosphere.

Cooper Nedvin from Manorville sat in a Mercedes Benz and fantasized, stating that it felt incredible and he wished it was his own.

CBS2's Jennifer McLogan advised, "You must accept it in its current condition."

Cooper's mother, Jackie Nedvin, agreed by stating, "That's correct. Therefore, it's a risky venture. You're unsure of what you'll receive, but the offer is quite enticing."

There will be an auction featuring 120 vehicles, and one of them is a Mercedes.

Marta Ayala from Bellport is shopping in advance for her eldest child as she will be a senior student next year. She intends to surprise her child.

"Camping vehicles, motorcycles, flatbed trailers, and pickup trucks can be perceived as treasures or junk depending on individual perspectives," commented Tor Jacob Worsoe.

He stated that visiting the place reminds him of a time in his childhood when his father used to be an auctioneer, and his family would arrive early to admire the most fascinating items.

It takes him back to a more pleasant and uncomplicated era.

Several people looking to buy new, used, or leased cars are currently experiencing market panic due to the inability to find vehicles. 

A previous event, the Suffolk Police impound yard auction, had over 1,000 enthusiastic buyers in attendance earlier this year.

What is causing the surge in auctions? Consumer Reports reveals that used car prices have increased by up to 50% in some cases due to higher interest rates and monthly payments following the pandemic.

According to Jeffrey Dietz, an automotive expert, there is a shortage in new car inventory due to the fact that the chips are currently in Taiwan.

He claims that since there are delays in receiving new orders, drivers are eagerly purchasing used vehicles.

It is noteworthy that all VIN numbers will be accessible at this auction, giving patrons the opportunity to research before buying.

Dietz suggested that you can investigate the car's history to determine if it has been involved in an accident or if it has previous records of being purchased or sold.

The department confiscated certain cars, such as a damaged Porsche and a Jaguar, after apprehending individuals for DWI.

Dietz stated that the car's history can be examined to determine if it has been in an accident or where it was previously purchased or sold.

A few vehicles, such as a damaged Porsche and a Jaguar, were confiscated by the department due to DWI-related arrests.

The department impounded various vehicles, such as a Jaguar and a damaged Porsche, after DWI arrests. A man claimed that the Porsche required a significant amount of care but was otherwise in fair condition.

Initial bids must be at least $500, and payment options include cash, traveler's checks, or certified checks. There are no refunds for purchased items.

Regardless of the weather, the auction will begin at 9 a.m. More information is available by clicking here https://suffolkpd.org/Precincts-and-Specialized-Units/Specialized-Units/Impound-Section/Impound-Section-Auction
