Question 1

How much below its undamaged value did this BUICK ENCORE sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2013 BUICK ENCORE's pre-damage retail value at $13,075. It sold for $4,050 — 69% 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 2

How far is this BUICK ENCORE from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in LA - BATON ROUGE. The nearest major vehicle export port is New Orleans, roughly 130 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 3

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

Accepted Answer

RUNS AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2013 BUICK ENCORE. 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 4

Did this 2013 BUICK ENCORE come with keys?

Accepted Answer

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 front end damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.

Question 5

Can I buy this 2013 BUICK ENCORE from AutoBidCar?

Accepted Answer

No. AutoBidCar is an archive of past auction listings, not a seller — we have never owned this vehicle. This 2013 BUICK ENCORE was listed at COPART as lot 57953423 and any sale happened there. We publish the record so buyers can research what comparable vehicles actually sold for.
