Caution
Damage severitysevere (52/100)

Deal score (proprietary)

21Risky deal

Score 21/100: cheaper-than-peer asks lift the read unless mileage rank or loss index erodes the cushion.

Modeled price outlook

Peer pricing is too thin here to publish a modeled resale midpoint—expand the make/model year band or wait for more indexed asks.

Repair budget heuristic

$18,000 – $48,000indicative USD band

From the “front end” loss read (52/100), budget planning often lands $18,000–$48,000 before paint, calibrations, and regional labor drift.

Illustrative range from auction loss text, not a quote. Hidden electrical, suspension, or airbag work can exceed the upper band.
