How to Sell a Used Car

Do you wish to sell your vehicle? The process isn’t as hard as one might think, but there a few steps you need to follow. Here is how you can efficiently sell your existing car to a dealership. Upon selling, your automobile will join our inventory of our used cars in Bentonville, AR.

Do I Need to Buy or Lease a New Car?

Customers are not required to buy or lease a new car in order to sell their existing vehicle. If you sell your vehicle to us, we’ll write you a check, and you can leave without buying anything from us. If you do buy a new car, then the process becomes a trade-in.

What Do I Need to Bring?

Have the following documents ready when selling your car to a dealership.

• Car title (to prove you’re the legal owner)
• Car registration
• Loan paperwork if you’re still making payments to the car
• Service receipts and invoices if available

In addition, bring along all original equipment that came with the vehicle if you have them. Examples include the spare key, user manual, and tool kit.

How to Prep Your Vehicle

A dealer will perform an inspection as part of the valuation process. Any deficiencies detected will lower the value. We highly recommend that sellers perform any necessary repair work beforehand. It’s best to do this at the dealership to ensure only OEM replacement parts are used. While more of a secondary factor, you should also arrange for a vehicle detail to restore any existing dents or paint scratches.

You can sell your car to Superior Mazda, or trade it as part of a new car acquisition process. Trade for a model like the Mazda CX-30 or Mazda CX-9.
