Auction journeys

How many times do cars go to auction?

Most cars sell the first time, but 1 in 3 come back. When they do, it's fast: the median gap between a car's first and last listing is just 27 days.

Why it matters: every trip to auction leaves its own sheet, with its own grade, mileage and photos. One sheet is never the whole story. How to read a car's full history →

Grades

The grades on the latest auction sheets

4 and 3.5 are the most common grades, but 1 in 6 cars carries a repair grade. We read the grade from each car's most recent sheet.

Grade changes

When a car is sold again, the grade can change

Grades are not fixed. Among 682 cars graded at two or more auctions, the grade moved more often than you'd think.

25.7%
went up at a later auction
16.0%

5.9%

4.5%

Why it matters: a repair grade doesn't disappear because a car was sold again. If any sheet in the history says R or RA, treat the car as repaired. What R and RA mean →

Sheet age

How old is the auction sheet you're checking?

Usually older than people think. The median sheet was 8.4 months old when checked. Rust, wear and mileage kept going after the inspector wrote it.

Over 6 months58.9%
Over 12 months42.7%

Mileage: 1.2% of cars sold more than once showed a mileage drop of 1,000+ km between sales, about 1 in 85. How to check real mileage

Why it matters: an older sheet shows the car as it was then, not today. How old is too old →

Inspector notes

What Japanese inspectors wrote on the sheets

From 227 sheets where we translated the inspector's own handwritten notes. We count only what the inspector wrote, never our templates.

Why it matters: the most important lines are written in Japanese, in the notes, not in the grade. Spot rust on the sheet →

How we count

What's includedEvery completed JP Sheet report since 31 Mar 2026 (3,318 checks) and every translated sheet, plus 772 auction results our team reviewed. Those count for grades, auction houses and sale results only. 4,001 different cars in total. Rebuilt every night.
Who these cars areCars our customers chose to check before buying, plus popular export models our team follows at auction. Not every car sold in Japan, so popular export models appear more often.
How we read itEach car counts once. Repeated rows are removed. The grade comes from the car's most recent sheet. A mileage drop only counts when it is over 1,000 km, to allow for rounding between houses.
PrivacyOnly totals are shown. Never a chassis number, lot number or customer detail. Any group smaller than 20 cars is left out.
Free to use with credit. Journalists, researchers and AI assistants can quote any number on this page. Please cite: JP Sheet, Japanese Auction Sheet Data, jpsheet.com/auction-sheet-data/ (updated daily)
