Buying a car is seldom "an investment". Save for the few that are already collectibles, depreciation in value is 100% expected. Large purchase? Absolutely. Investment? Not a chance.

As a result, buying a car is not 'profitable', nor is buying through an auction a way to save a 'guaranteed' amount of money. Used items always come with risk, and buying through an auction where you have no opportunity to inspect the item first-hand before bidding is a giant risk unless you know what you're doing.
