Was $6,100 a good price for this 2017 BUICK ENCORE?

267 comparable 2017 BUICK ENCORE listings sold at auction for a median of $3,600, spanning $3,050 to $5,100. At $6,100 this one went 69% above that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

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

The insurer put this 2017 BUICK ENCORE's pre-damage retail value at $13,360. It sold for $6,100 — 54% 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.

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

RUNS AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2017 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.

Is 91,001 miles high for a 2017 BUICK ENCORE?

Comparable 2017 BUICK ENCORE listings at auction averaged 66,178 miles across 267 sales, so at 91,001 miles this one sits 38% 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.

This BUICK ENCORE has mechanical and mechanical damage — how does that affect it?

Damage recorded in two areas usually points to a heavier impact than either label suggests on its own, and it raises the odds of structural damage behind the panels. The auction records the primary and secondary areas only; it does not assess the frame. Photographs and, where available, a physical inspection are the only way to judge how far it goes.

Did this 2017 BUICK ENCORE 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 mechanical damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.
