What does Highlights mean?

Short labels on a lot that sum up its condition at check-in.

What it means

Highlights are the quick condition labels on a Copart lot, such as Run and Drive, Engine Start Program or Enhanced Vehicles. They come from the yard's check-in, not from a mechanic's inspection, and say nothing about hidden damage.

What it means for a buyer

Use highlights to filter lots quickly, then verify with the photos, the damage codes and the odometer brand. A label that was true at check-in may not be true weeks later at the sale.
