Question 1

What do front end 2016 BMW 4 SERIES models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 304 recorded sales of the 2016 BMW 4 SERIES with front end damage, the median was $4,700, from $3,350 to $7,200. That is level with the $4,700 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $4,150 a good price for this 2016 BMW 4 SERIES?

Accepted Answer

655 comparable 2016 BMW 4 SERIES listings sold at auction for a median of $4,700, spanning $3,350 to $7,500. At $4,150 this one went 12% below that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 3

This BMW 4 SERIES sold without keys — does that matter?

Accepted Answer

Yes, usually. A missing key means the vehicle often cannot be started or moved under its own power at the yard, so its condition is harder to verify and buyers bid more cautiously. Replacing a modern key and reprogramming it to the immobiliser typically runs into the hundreds. It is one of the more common reasons an otherwise sound car sells below its comparables.

Question 4

How much below its undamaged value did this BMW 4 SERIES sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2016 BMW 4 SERIES's pre-damage retail value at $20,933. It sold for $4,150 — 80% below that. A gap this size is normal for auction vehicles: the buyer takes on the repair cost, the paperwork and the risk that damage is worse than the photos show.

Question 5

How far is this BMW 4 SERIES from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in NJ - WINDSOR. The nearest major vehicle export port is Newark, roughly 30 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $200-$300, 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.

Question 6

Is 72,199 miles high for a 2016 BMW 4 SERIES?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2016 BMW 4 SERIES listings at auction averaged 91,620 miles across 655 sales, so at 72,199 miles this one sits 21% 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.
