Question 1

What do side 2018 HYUNDAI KONA models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 43 recorded sales of the 2018 HYUNDAI KONA with side damage, the median was $3,550, from $3,050 to $4,500. That is 4% below the $3,700 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $5,000 a good price for this 2018 HYUNDAI KONA?

Accepted Answer

410 comparable 2018 HYUNDAI KONA listings sold at auction for a median of $3,700, spanning $3,100 to $5,000. At $5,000 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 HYUNDAI KONA sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2018 HYUNDAI KONA's pre-damage retail value at $19,150. It sold for $5,000 — 74% 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 "RUN AND DRIVES" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2018 HYUNDAI KONA. 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 5

How far is this HYUNDAI KONA from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in OK - OKLAHOMA CITY. The nearest major vehicle export port is Houston, roughly 450 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $375-$550, 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 6

What does a cert of title-salvage mean for this HYUNDAI KONA?

Accepted Answer

This 2018 HYUNDAI KONA was sold on a cert of title-salvage. 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.
