Repair budget heuristic
$6,500 – $22,000indicative USD band
Keyword + severity blend suggests a provisional $6,500–$22,000 repair envelope—body shops can deviate 2× if hidden structure or module counts appear on teardown.
Illustrative range from auction loss text, not a quote. Hidden electrical, suspension, or airbag work can exceed the upper band.

Auction Listing Context for 1FM5K8D88HGC13226
