I'm looking to buy a discounted car. Are deals at auctions as good as they sound? How much you save? Any leads?

Yes. They're very good.
If you can be comfortable with the ethics of police seizing people's stuff and selling it off whether or not there's a conviction and whether or not the initial charges were entirely fabricated and deemed unethical by courts.

I see local police auctions. It so they have federal ones too? I didn’t look super deep but curious.

I never thought there was any federal auctions. Cool site to look into.
A bus or multiseater would be bad ass.

Not sue if it’s the same everywhere, but in Florida, I think they list it all online so you can bid on it through the site. I’ve never seen anything worth bidding on.

How often do you look? I thought I knew a guy who got a nice old cop car and he doesn’t have much money.

idk, the ones I've seen are usually beat to death city vehicles, and weird plots of land that are too small to do anything with.
I thought about buying one of the plots of land just to set up my own 10x10 park with a bench a swing.
for example* https://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa=Main.AdvSearchResultsNew&searchPg=Classic&inv_num=&category=00&kWord=&kWordSelect=2&sortBy=ad&agency=5389&state=&country=&locID=&timing=bySimple&locationType=state&timeType=&timingWithin=1&rowCount=10&StartRow=1
For the actual police auctions, look for something like.

By a car, dismantle it, find 50kg of coke. Profit.

They sell guns. Ones you don't want. Usually used in suicide or some homocide intentional or not.
-------------------- Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

I’d totally buy a car from the cops. Play the game take the risk. Me not bidding isn’t gonna get the vehicle returned to the previous owner would it? Just give the next guy a better deal

I want to go to a police auction, but despite all the knowledge and links shared here I can't find anything near me lol. Shit makes no sense, I always bump into people who got a super deal on a police auctioned car but yet despite me wanting to go to one for years I can't fucking find one.

They don't do them very often. You just have to keep checking wherever they post such things in your area.
Go here, and enter your zip and a range. It'll give you other government auctions.
https://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa=Main.ZipSearch
It's all bullshit though. They only thing I've ever thought about bidding on, was a lot of old computers.
edit: sometimes the local PD will list stuff too, but it's usually old or wrecked cars.
For example https://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa=Main.AdvSearchResultsNew&searchPg=Location&inv_num=&category=00&kWord=&kWordSelect=2&sortBy=ad&agency=61&state=&country=&locID=2021&timing=bySimple&locationType=state&timeType=&timingWithin=1

There are some more pricey nice ones but I can't afford right now. But I do like one I am seeing a whole lot.
