What do flood 2018 BMW 3ER models sell for?

Across 15 recorded sales of the 2018 BMW 3ER with flood damage, the median was $4,200, from $3,175 to $7,575. That is 14% below the $4,900 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

What does a salvage mean for this BMW 3ER?

This 2018 BMW 3ER was sold on a salvage. A salvage title means an insurer declared the vehicle a total loss. Repairing it and passing a state inspection can convert it to a rebuilt title, which stays on the record permanently and affects resale value.

How far is this BMW 3ER 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 "RUN AND DRIVES" mean on this listing?

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2018 BMW 3ER. 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.

Is 56,820 miles high for a 2018 BMW 3ER?

Comparable 2018 BMW 3ER listings at auction averaged 80,328 miles across 1590 sales, so at 56,820 miles this one sits 29% 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.

Did this 2018 BMW 3ER come with keys?

Yes — this lot was listed with keys present, which usually means the vehicle could at least be started or moved at the yard. Combined with flood damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.
