Accepted Answer

Across 20 recorded sales of the 2025 CHEVROLET MALIBU with water/flood damage, the median was $5,450, from $4,300 to $9,000. That is 37% below the $8,700 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $8,900 a good price for this 2025 CHEVROLET MALIBU?

Accepted Answer

1136 comparable 2025 CHEVROLET MALIBU listings sold at auction for a median of $8,700, spanning $3,650 to $13,250. At $8,900 this one went 2% 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 CHEVROLET MALIBU sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2025 CHEVROLET MALIBU's pre-damage retail value at $29,399. It sold for $8,900 — 70% 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

What does a salvage title mean for this CHEVROLET MALIBU?

Accepted Answer

This 2025 CHEVROLET MALIBU was sold on a salvage title. 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.

Question 5

This CHEVROLET MALIBU has water/flood and minor dent/scratches damage — how does that affect it?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 6

Is 7,347 miles high for a 2025 CHEVROLET MALIBU?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2025 CHEVROLET MALIBU listings at auction averaged 22,996 miles across 1136 sales, so at 7,347 miles this one sits 68% 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.
