Question 1

Accepted Answer

Across 10 recorded sales of the 2018 CHEVROLET MALIBU with normal wear damage, the median was $4,150, from $3,300 to $6,500. That is 17% above the $3,550 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $5,400 a good price for this 2018 CHEVROLET MALIBU?

Accepted Answer

865 comparable 2018 CHEVROLET MALIBU listings sold at auction for a median of $3,550, spanning $3,050 to $5,500. At $5,400 this one went 52% 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

What does a clean title mean for this CHEVROLET MALIBU?

Accepted Answer

This 2018 CHEVROLET MALIBU was sold on a clean title. A clean title means no total-loss brand was recorded at the point of sale, which is unusual at salvage auctions and typically lifts the price.

Question 4

How far is this CHEVROLET MALIBU from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in AL - THEODORE. 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

Is 112,996 miles high for a 2018 CHEVROLET MALIBU?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2018 CHEVROLET MALIBU listings at auction averaged 82,229 miles across 865 sales, so at 112,996 miles this one sits 37% 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.

Question 6

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

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2018 CHEVROLET MALIBU. 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.
