How Does Trading In a Financed Car Work?
- Find the remaining balance on your, which is usually listed on your monthly statements.
- Then, use our trade-in value tool to get an estimate of the market value for your current vehicle. Have the model inspected by our technicians, so they can verify its quality. Negotiate with us and accept an offer.
- If you owe less on your current loan than the vehicle is worth, then you can put the difference towards a new or used car on our lot. For instance, if you owe $7,000 on your current vehicle, but it’s worth $8,000, that leaves you with $1,000 to use towards a down payment on a new vehicle!
- If you owe more on your loan than your model is worth, you have negative equity. If the remaining balance of your auto loan is more than the trade-in offer, then you’ll still owe money on your car–this is called negative equity. You can still trade-in your car, but your lender will roll the remainder of your balance over into your next loan.
