Question 1

Was $9,600 a good price for this 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS?

Accepted Answer

142 comparable 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS listings sold at auction for a median of $5,700, spanning $3,500 to $9,000. At $9,600 this one went 68% 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 2

How far is this MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at IAAI in NH - SALEM. The nearest major vehicle export port is Newark, roughly 280 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $250-$325, 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 3

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

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS. 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 4

Is 136,771 miles high for a 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS listings at auction averaged 134,102 miles across 142 sales, so at 136,771 miles this one sits 2% 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 5

Did this 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS 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 normal wear & tear damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.

Question 6

Can I buy this 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS from AutoBidCar?

Accepted Answer

No. AutoBidCar is an archive of past auction listings, not a seller — we have never owned this vehicle. This 2016 MERCEDES-BENZ METRIS was listed at IAAI as lot 42738458 and any sale happened there. We publish the record so buyers can research what comparable vehicles actually sold for.
