What do hail 2018 KIA FORTE models sell for?

Across 11 recorded sales of the 2018 KIA FORTE with hail damage, the median was $3,425, from $3,150 to $3,925. That is level with the $3,413 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

What does a clear mean for this KIA FORTE?

This 2018 KIA FORTE was sold on a clear. 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.

How far is this KIA FORTE from an export port?

The lot sat at IAAI 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.

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

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

Is 81,454 miles high for a 2018 KIA FORTE?

Comparable 2018 KIA FORTE listings at auction averaged 70,036 miles across 97 sales, so at 81,454 miles this one sits 16% 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.

Did this 2018 KIA FORTE come with keys?

Yes — this lot was listed with keys present, which usually means the vehicle could at least be started or moved at the yard. Combined with hail damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.
