Accepted Answer

Across 386 recorded sales of the 2018 TESLA MODEL S with front end damage, the median was $6,800, from $3,700 to $10,400. That is 4% below the $7,088 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Question 2

Was $4,000 a good price for this 2018 TESLA MODEL S?

Accepted Answer

773 comparable 2018 TESLA MODEL S listings sold at auction for a median of $7,088, spanning $3,800 to $10,800. At $4,000 this one went 44% below 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

What does a salvage mean for this TESLA MODEL S?

Accepted Answer

This 2018 TESLA MODEL S was sold on a salvage. 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.

Question 4

How far is this TESLA MODEL S from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at IAAI in NY - AVENEL. The nearest major vehicle export port is Newark, roughly 160 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 5

Is 230,121 miles high for a 2018 TESLA MODEL S?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2018 TESLA MODEL S listings at auction averaged 83,745 miles across 773 sales, so at 230,121 miles this one sits 175% 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 6

This TESLA MODEL S has front end and suspension damage — how does that affect it?

Accepted Answer

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.
