What do mechanical 2021 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA models sell for?

Across 17 recorded sales of the 2021 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA with mechanical damage, the median was $4,050, from $3,250 to $7,300. That is 19% below the $5,025 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

Was $3,000 a good price for this 2021 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA?

1708 comparable 2021 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA listings sold at auction for a median of $5,025, spanning $3,350 to $8,700. At $3,000 this one went 40% 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 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA sell for?

The insurer put this 2021 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA's pre-damage retail value at $17,800. It sold for $3,000 — 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.

How far is this VOLKSWAGEN JETTA from an export port?

The lot sat at COPART in TX - HOUSTON. The nearest major vehicle export port is Houston, roughly 200 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $250-$350, 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.

What does "ENGINE STARTS" mean on this listing?

ENGINE STARTS is the auction's own condition note for this 2021 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. It is a short status flag applied by the auction, not the result of a mechanical inspection. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.

What does a clean title mean for this VOLKSWAGEN JETTA?

This 2021 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA was sold on a clean title. 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.
