What do front end 2016 MAZDA 3 models sell for?

Across 69 recorded sales of the 2016 MAZDA 3 with front end damage, the median was $3,425, from $3,050 to $4,100. That is 2% below the $3,500 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

What does a salvage title mean for this MAZDA 3?

This 2016 MAZDA 3 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.

How far is this MAZDA 3 from an export port?

The lot sat at COPART in CA - SAN DIEGO. 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.

Is 105,004 miles high for a 2016 MAZDA 3?

Comparable 2016 MAZDA 3 listings at auction averaged 83,937 miles across 278 sales, so at 105,004 miles this one sits 25% 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 2016 MAZDA 3 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 front end damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.
