What do rear end 2016 TESLA MODEL S models sell for?

Across 106 recorded sales of the 2016 TESLA MODEL S with rear end damage, the median was $5,100, from $3,450 to $7,900. That is 3% above the $4,950 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Was $3,800 a good price for this 2016 TESLA MODEL S?

999 comparable 2016 TESLA MODEL S listings sold at auction for a median of $4,950, spanning $3,350 to $7,500. At $3,800 this one went 23% below that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

How much below its undamaged value did this TESLA MODEL S sell for?

The insurer put this 2016 TESLA MODEL S's pre-damage retail value at $23,025. It sold for $3,800 — 83% 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.

This TESLA MODEL S has rear end and side damage — how does that affect it?

Damage recorded in two areas usually points to a heavier impact than either label suggests on its own, and it raises the odds of structural damage behind the panels. The auction records the primary and secondary areas only; it does not assess the frame. Photographs and, where available, a physical inspection are the only way to judge how far it goes.

What does a salvage title mean for this TESLA MODEL S?

This 2016 TESLA MODEL S 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.

What does "ENHANCED" mean on this listing?

ENHANCED is the auction's own condition note for this 2016 TESLA MODEL S. It marks a lot the auction has given extra listing prominence, not a statement about condition. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.
