Showing results 1 - 24 of 146
147 Nissan Versa Note lots for sale across 94+ Copart locations — model years 2014–2019, avg. mileage 118,000 mi. 27% clean title, 70% salvage; Front End is the top damage (45%). Bids start at $200, and recent Nissans sold for a median winning bid near $1,750 before fees across the make.
The Versa Note shared its bones with the Versa sedan but wore a taller hatchback body built for cargo instead of trunk space. Nissan sold it in the US only from 2014 through 2019, so the pool stays thin next to a mainstream sedan — too few trade here to hold a model-specific median, mileage averaging around 118,000. Across the make a recent Nissan sold for a median winning bid near $1,750 before fees, and a clean-nosed Versa Note tends to land close to that number once you weigh its modest retail ceiling. Most stay in the US, picked up locally or shipped in-country.
Every Versa Note ran the 1.6-liter HR16DE four, paired with a CVT on most trims or a 5-speed manual on the base S. Interrogate that CVT before anything else: a shudder or a flare in RPM under simulated load, especially paired with a burnt smell off the dipstick, points toward a unit near the end of its life, and it's a known weak spot across Nissan's small cars from this generation. SV and SL trims added the Divide-N-Hide cargo floor, a two-position panel under the hatch that drops for taller items or sits flat for a level load — confirm it's still in the car, since these panels wander off on parts-only lots. There's no frame to inspect on a small unibody hatchback like this one, but a front hit that reaches the strut towers or radiator support is the one to walk from; a bumper-and-headlight repair on a clean-title Versa Note is a far easier lift. When the shell's too far gone, non-repairable lots still sell for the engine, doors and interior.
Buying is quick: register free — no dealer license — set a maximum bid and the system bids up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
Note: ACV and damage data come from the original auction listing. Always check the condition and title yourself before you bid.
FAQ
What condition are these Versa Notes in?
About 147 lots, 70% on a salvage title and the rest clean or rebuilt. Front End shows up most, and mileage averages near 118,000. Nearly all are the standard Versa Note hatchback.
Is a salvage Versa Note worth buying?
Often yes for a cheap commuter, since parts are common and the mechanicals are simple to work on. Too few sell here to pin a model median, so lean on the make-wide number: recent Nissans sold for a median winning bid near $1,750 before fees. A shuddering CVT or a folded strut tower is where the math stops working on a car this inexpensive to begin with.
What should I check before bidding?
The CVT first, since it's the known weak point on this generation — listen for a flare in RPM or a shudder under load. Then the strut towers on any front-end lot. On an SV or SL, confirm the Divide-N-Hide cargo panel is still there. Cross-check the title brand against the damage photos.
Can I insure and register a salvage Versa Note?
Only after it's rebuilt and passes a state inspection — then most insurers will cover it, just not the company that totaled it. While it's salvage-titled it can't be road-registered. Check with your insurer before you bid.
How does the auction work?
Register free, no dealer license. Set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
How do I check a Versa Note's history before bidding?
Every lot shows the VIN, damage type and title brand. Run the VIN through a vehicle-history report for prior accidents, mileage and title events before you commit.
What are good alternatives to the Versa Note?
Buyers cross-shop the Honda Fit and Toyota Yaris hatchbacks, or the Chevy Sonic for similar cargo room. All three usually have healthy salvage counts.
