How to Sell Your Car to a Dealership

How to Sell Your Car to a Dealership

There’s no need to hang onto an unwanted car, truck, minivan, or SUV or attempt to sell it on your own. Pohanka Acura is here to tell you how easy it is to sell your car to a dealership, so you can get the cash you need with minimal hassle or delay! Just give us a call to set up an appointment, and we’ll meet with you to go over everything in detail.

Trade vs. Sell

The first thing to do before meeting with us is to decide if you’ll use the value of your model to offset the cost of a new purchase or not. In the event that you’re planning on making your next vehicle more affordable, then we recommend completing a trade. That way, we can simply apply its value toward the cost of the next model you wish to take home for a seamless transaction. Of course, if you’re just looking to sell a vehicle for cash, then this is also straightforward to complete. In either case, it’s not a bad idea to clean the interior and exterior prior to having it appraised.

Estimate Its Worth

Whether you plan to sell or trade-in your old car, you can discover its value without taking a step outside, thanks to the tools located here on our website. First, select either the Value Your Trade or Sell Us Your Car link. Both of these resources require information about your ride, like its make, model, year, condition, and your contact information, and can supply a more competitive offer if you add photos or a short video. After you submit the form, it shouldn’t take long for our staff to come up with a number and reach out to you regarding the next steps should you decide to accept.

Stop By the Dealership

Once you’re ready to sell, be sure to collect the necessary documents before coming to see us. These include its title, service history, owner’s manual, and a few others, so consider checking with us or your local DMV for a full list. Our staff members are here to assist, so you don’t have to stress! Since we conduct these kinds of transactions on a daily basis, it shouldn’t take long for us to either complete the trade or hand over the check for your car’s worth. It’s that easy!

Do you still have questions on your mind about how to sell your car to a dealership? Pohanka Acura is the place to go for expert assistance! When you work with us, you’ll get to benefit from the Pohanka Value Package, which explains how we manage to stand head and shoulders above the competition.

My experience at Pohanka Acura was awesome. Yong Kim was my sales rep and he took such great care of us! He's easy to work with and very knowledgeable. My husband and I have bought multiple Acuras from Yong and it's been a great experience every time. We also really enjoyed working with our finance manager, Shahbaz Butt!

My experience at the Pohanka Acura dealership is summarized in 6 words. Award winning Salesman and award winning dealership. Mr Yong Kim made our purchasing experience stress free, it shows in his knowledge and his 14 years of experience selling Acuras. Which by the way he was recognized for during our purchase. He accepted his Award, didn’t miss a beat and took care of us. If you are planning to purchase a Acura go and see Mr. Kim at the Pohanka Acura dealership.

Yong Kim was my sales rep and he provided me with a great service. Provided me with great knowledge of the vehicle I wanted and the options that I had with thorough explanation. Have bought other cars in the past, but this was by far the smoothest process I have had thanks to him and the team.
