The 2016 Mercedes-Benz S auction market at a glance
The middle half of sales ran from $2,550 to $8,700, a 3.4x spread, so the damage on the car matters far more than the badge.
68% still ran and drove when sold; most were lightly or moderately damaged, which props up the median.
The most common primary damage was front end (51% of sales), followed by rear end (22%).
Next to neighboring years of the S, a 2017 brought $575 less at the median, and a 2015 brought $1,550 less at the median.
The typical one crossed the block with about 79,000 miles.

How much is a wrecked 2016 Mercedes-Benz S worth?
Most sold for $2,550 to $8,700 at US auctions over the last 6 months, with a median of $5,200 across 95 sales. Where yours lands depends on the damage, whether it runs, mileage and title.
Does it matter if my 2016 Mercedes-Benz S still runs?
Yes. 68% of the ones sold still ran and drove. Runners with light damage sell toward the top of the range; non-runners, flood and fire cars sell toward the bottom.
Should I part out my wrecked 2016 Mercedes-Benz S or sell it whole?
At a median of $5,200, it depends on which parts survived. Parting out grosses more on paper, but time, fees and the leftover shell eat into it; selling whole pays this week.
Can I sell a 2016 Mercedes-Benz S with a salvage title?
Yes. Buyers of damaged cars handle salvage titles every day and price the brand in. A missing title narrows the pool of buyers more than a salvage brand does, and state rules decide who can buy a car without one.
