VIN KNAE15LA1J6034643 — 2018 KIA STINGER Auction History

This 2018 KIA STINGER, finished in Silver, sold on September 14, 2026 at Springfield, Springfield, MO for $3,900. K-Series pedigree shows in the 2.0L I-4 DI, DOHC, VVT, turbo, 255HP paired with the Automatic — a familiar KIA combination, with Gasoline fuel keeping the running costs in a known bracket.

At 144,982 mi the lot sits in a serviceable range; hail damage is typically repairable on the STINGER body and K-Series aftermarket parts are widely available. The IAAI listing closed without title surprises that would push it into parts-only territory.

This was not the first time the VIN appeared at auction — see the timeline below for the prior sale. K-Series STINGERs frequently cycle through Copart/IAAI as rebuilders flip them post-repair.

A Hail-coded 2018 KIA STINGER lot shows hood, roof, deck-lid and quarter panels (denting only). "hail-comb" cars (50+ dents) often totaled despite running fine is the costly diagnosis to confirm; paintless dent repair (PDR) at $50–150/dent or full respray is the standard repair scope.

Bidding above the parts-only threshold requires confirming "hail-comb" cars (50+ dents) often is absent. Consult an estimator on the 2.0L I-4 DI, DOHC, VVT, turbo, 255HP drivetrain and structural rails before committing.

Repeat at auction: this 2018 KIA STINGER sold twice. The first sale: September 8, 2026. The latest: September 14, 2026. The timeline shows how price reacted to title and damage changes.
