Question 1

Was $3,350 a good price for this 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON?

Accepted Answer

2561 comparable 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON listings sold at auction for a median of $3,850, spanning $3,100 to $5,300. At $3,350 this one went 13% below that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

Question 2

How much below its undamaged value did this HYUNDAI TUCSON sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON's pre-damage retail value at $11,839. It sold for $3,350 — 72% 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 3

What does a salvage title mean for this HYUNDAI TUCSON?

Accepted Answer

This 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON 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 4

How far is this HYUNDAI TUCSON from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in MD - WALDORF. The nearest major vehicle export port is Baltimore, roughly 40 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 5

Is 106,461 miles high for a 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON listings at auction averaged 96,867 miles across 2561 sales, so at 106,461 miles this one sits 10% 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 "ENGINE STARTS" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

ENGINE STARTS is the auction's own condition note for this 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON. It is a short status flag applied by the auction, not the result of a mechanical inspection. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.
