Trading In Your Vehicle at RAR Auto Sales

RAR AUTO SALES · PHOENIX, ARIZONA

Know what to prepare before discussing your current vehicle and your next purchase with our Phoenix team.

Start with a trade-in request

Use our trade-in form to share basic vehicle information, including the year, make, model, mileage, and condition. Accurate details help us begin the conversation. An online request is a starting point, not a guaranteed appraisal or an offer to buy.

What should I bring for an appraisal?

  • Your vehicle and keys, including spare keys if available.
  • Your identification and current registration.
  • The title, if you hold it, and information about any owners listed on it.
  • Your lender's name and loan information if the vehicle has an outstanding balance.
  • Available service records and information about known damage or mechanical issues.

Call ahead if the title, registration, or ownership situation is unusual so we can explain what information we need.

How is a trade-in evaluated?

Our team reviews the vehicle's condition, mileage, equipment, and relevant history. An in-person inspection helps us discuss an appraisal. Be open about known issues, and ask how the trade-in amount is reflected in the proposed purchase figures.

If you still owe money

The loan payoff and the trade-in value are separate figures. A payoff can differ from the balance on your last statement. Our team will need current lender information to discuss the remaining balance and available options.

If the payoff exceeds the value

There may be a remaining amount to address. Do not assume it disappears when you trade the vehicle. Ask our team to explain how it would be handled and review any effect on the new purchase and financing.

Connect the trade-in to your next vehicle

Browse available vehicles and discuss your trade before deciding on a purchase. If you plan to finance, review the complete terms and the financing document checklist. Trade-in acceptance, value, and financing are subject to review.
