Question 1

What do rear 2023 KIA SPORTAGE models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 256 recorded sales of the 2023 KIA SPORTAGE with rear damage, the median was $8,800, from $5,900 to $12,600. That is 16% above the $7,600 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $8,675 a good price for this 2023 KIA SPORTAGE?

Accepted Answer

5056 comparable 2023 KIA SPORTAGE listings sold at auction for a median of $7,600, spanning $4,500 to $11,600. At $8,675 this one went 14% 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 far is this KIA SPORTAGE from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at IAAI in CA - CARSON. The nearest major vehicle export port is Long Beach, roughly 200 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $250-$350, 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 4

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

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2023 KIA SPORTAGE. 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 73,697 miles high for a 2023 KIA SPORTAGE?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2023 KIA SPORTAGE listings at auction averaged 50,003 miles across 5056 sales, so at 73,697 miles this one sits 47% 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

Did this 2023 KIA SPORTAGE come with keys?

Accepted Answer

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 rear damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.
