Question 1

What do rear end 2024 KIA FORTE models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 716 recorded sales of the 2024 KIA FORTE with rear end damage, the median was $6,600, from $4,100 to $8,800. That is 10% above the $6,000 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 2024 KIA FORTE?

Accepted Answer

5020 comparable 2024 KIA FORTE listings sold at auction for a median of $6,000, spanning $3,800 to $8,600. At $5,400 this one went 10% 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 3

How much below its undamaged value did this KIA FORTE sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2024 KIA FORTE's pre-damage retail value at $18,498. It sold for $5,400 — 71% 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 2024 KIA FORTE. 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

Is 53,418 miles high for a 2024 KIA FORTE?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2024 KIA FORTE listings at auction averaged 26,992 miles across 5020 sales, so at 53,418 miles this one sits 98% 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

This KIA FORTE has rear end and front end 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.
