Value Your Trade in Clifton, NJ

Value Your Trade at Garden State Honda

Deciding whether to sell or trade-in your old car can be tough. There are pros and cons to both. If you need cash, selling it to a third party might be more suitable for your situation. However, dealing with a private party can also be risky. You might get scammed or lowballed.

Trade-ins at dealerships are popular since many people find them convenient. One of the easiest ways to dispose of your old car is to turn it over to the dealership. If you're buying another car, you can use the trade-in value to beef up your down payment and lower your monthly payment for the new unit. In most states, you will only need to pay tax based on the difference between the price of the new car and the value of your trade-in vehicle.

If you're from Clifton, NJ, visit Garden State Honda and talk to one of our sales associates about your trade-in options. Whether you are shopping for a new or used car, our dealership has a variety of Honda models that will suit your needs. You can use our trade-in calculator to know how much financing you'll need.

How to Value Your Trade

Trading your vehicle at a dealership offers convenience and requires less time and effort. The dealership handles all the paperwork, and you don't have to deal with strangers inquiring about your car or testing it.

When making a trade-in offer, a dealership will consider several factors, including the vehicle's age, mileage, and overall condition. Most trade-in calculators also factor in the equipment and packages included in the vehicle when appraising its value. Local supply and demand, as well as the time of year, also affect the trade-in value.

You may also get a better trade-in price if you choose the right dealership. For example, if you have a Honda and plan to get another Honda model with the money from the trade-in, it's better to go to a Honda dealership.

Steps in Trading Your Car

You can use Garden State Honda's trade-in calculator to know the value of your trade. You can follow these steps:

• Look at our inventory and choose a model that appeals to you.
• Apply for financing (if you need one) and use a payment calculator to determine how much your monthly payment will be. Make sure to include the interest rate in the calculation. If you use the trade-in value as a downpayment for the new car, you should also include that in the calculation.
• Once you have the estimates for the vehicle you're interested in, contact the dealership and make an appointment for the inspection and appraisal.
• The sales associates at the dealership will inspect your car to verify its condition and the features and upgrades you have. They will make an offer based on their findings. If you accept the offer, you can use it as credit for your new car or get a check. If it's the former, they will deduct the trade-in value from the MSRP of your next car. They might even offer you a better interest rate based on your trade-in.
