Question 1

What do water/flood 2016 BMW X5 models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 34 recorded sales of the 2016 BMW X5 with water/flood damage, the median was $7,300, from $3,450 to $10,500. That is 12% above the $6,500 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $8,800 a good price for this 2016 BMW X5?

Accepted Answer

1877 comparable 2016 BMW X5 listings sold at auction for a median of $6,500, spanning $3,700 to $11,800. At $8,800 this one went 35% above 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

How much below its undamaged value did this BMW X5 sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2016 BMW X5's pre-damage retail value at $18,535. It sold for $8,800 — 53% 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 4

How far is this BMW X5 from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in AL - MOBILE SOUTH. The nearest major vehicle export port is New Orleans, roughly 350 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $300-$425, 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 5

What does "RUNS AND DRIVES" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

RUNS AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2016 BMW X5. 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.

Question 6

Is 128,493 miles high for a 2016 BMW X5?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2016 BMW X5 listings at auction averaged 112,012 miles across 1877 sales, so at 128,493 miles this one sits 15% above 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.
