What do flood 2021 BMW 3 SERIES models sell for?

Across 16 recorded sales of the 2021 BMW 3 SERIES with flood damage, the median was $9,100, from $5,700 to $15,925. That is 17% below the $10,900 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Was $7,800 a good price for this 2021 BMW 3 SERIES?

1402 comparable 2021 BMW 3 SERIES listings sold at auction for a median of $10,900, spanning $5,600 to $16,850. At $7,800 this one went 28% below that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

What does a certificate of destruction-fl mean for this BMW 3 SERIES?

This 2021 BMW 3 SERIES was sold on a certificate of destruction-fl. The title type is the auction's own classification and determines what can legally be done with the vehicle afterwards.

Is 1 miles high for a 2021 BMW 3 SERIES?

Comparable 2021 BMW 3 SERIES listings at auction averaged 51,539 miles across 1402 sales, so at 1 miles this one sits 100% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.

How far is this BMW 3 SERIES from an export port?

The lot sat at IAAI in FL - PEMBROKE PINES. The nearest major vehicle export port is Jacksonville, roughly 200 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $250-$350, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

What does "NOT RUN" mean on this listing?

NOT RUN is the auction's own condition note for this 2021 BMW 3 SERIES. It means the vehicle started and moved under its own power during a brief check at the yard. It is not a mechanical inspection and says nothing about how far it would drive. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.

Sold at auction on November 4, 2024, this striking 2021 BMW 330i presented a unique opportunity for enthusiasts and collectors alike. With a bold orange exterior, the vehicle was powered by a robust 2.0L I-4 turbo engine, generating an impressive 255 horsepower. The automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive layout promised an engaging driving experience, making it a coveted model within the BMW 3 Series lineup. However, the car had significant past damage due to flooding, which rendered it non-operational at the time of sale. Despite this setback, the low odometer reading of just 1 mile indicated that it had barely been used, highlighting its potential as a project car for restoration or customization. Sold for $7,800 in Pembroke Pines, FL, this BMW 330i attracted interest for its performance features and distinctive color, despite its flood-related issues. A rare find for those looking to revive a modern classic, this vehicle epitomized both elegance and performance in the luxury sedan segment.
