Question 1

What do rear end 2017 MAZDA 3 models sell for?

Accepted Answer

Across 61 recorded sales of the 2017 MAZDA 3 with rear end damage, the median was $3,500, from $3,050 to $4,300. That is 1% below the $3,550 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $3,600 a good price for this 2017 MAZDA 3?

Accepted Answer

382 comparable 2017 MAZDA 3 listings sold at auction for a median of $3,550, spanning $3,050 to $4,600. At $3,600 this one went 1% 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 much below its undamaged value did this MAZDA 3 sell for?

Accepted Answer

The insurer put this 2017 MAZDA 3's pre-damage retail value at $13,298. It sold for $3,600 — 73% 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 2017 MAZDA 3. 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 49,820 miles high for a 2017 MAZDA 3?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2017 MAZDA 3 listings at auction averaged 87,802 miles across 382 sales, so at 49,820 miles this one sits 43% below 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

How far is this MAZDA 3 from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at COPART in TN - MADISONVILLE. The nearest major vehicle export port is Savannah, roughly 400 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $350-$475, 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.
