I didn’t expect to see 2 year old slightly wrecked examples already at LKQ Pick Your Part.
This yard typically just carries late 90's and early 2000's cars, so to see something as new as 2014 really shocks me.

When new ones are selling for $10k off sticker, used ones have no residual...3-5k worth of damage probably is a total loss.

Makes a lot of sense. I guess an upside to buying one now is that if you need cheap parts, you can find them at your local pick and pull.

As somewhere deep down there is an Alfa Romeo Giulietta (or a FIAT Bravo, depends if you’re rather the optimism or pesimism kinda guy), that could maybe be used as a cheap, cheap hoonmobile.

Too bad you can't rescue them from the junkyard.

It doesn’t take much these days, especially if there’s damage to an engine component. There’s so much plastic up front holding the bumper and radiator and all things together that a small hit will push past all that and get into the engine compartment.

I mean, the damage isn’t the car’s fault...

Yeah, hits like those ... airbags deployed ... pretty much automatic total loss.

People should buy Darts - we asked for something, and they delivered. Buy one.

Possibly rental fleet cars or something that they didn’t want to bother auctioning off or fixing, or whatever?
