Question 1

Was $12,275 a good price for this 2017 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

302 comparable 2017 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE listings sold at auction for a median of $11,600, spanning $5,100 to $21,000. At $12,275 this one went 6% 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

What does a clear mean for this MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

This 2017 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE 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.

Question 3

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

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at IAAI in PA - PITTSTON. The nearest major vehicle export port is Newark, roughly 150 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $200-$300, 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 2017 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE. 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 153,859 miles high for a 2017 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2017 MERCEDES-BENZ S-KLASSE listings at auction averaged 85,016 miles across 302 sales, so at 153,859 miles this one sits 81% 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.
