Estimate your car’s value and note its mileage, options, damage, and maintenance history.
Gather the essentials
Have registration, title or loan details, service records, all keys, and identification ready. Requirements vary by state and lender.
Compare the full deal
Request the sale price, trade-in offer, fees, and financing terms separately. Review the final numbers before signing.
Keep in mind: valuation guides are references. A real sale, trade-in, or insurance outcome depends on the specific vehicle and current market evidence.

Common questions
Is an online estimate a guaranteed offer?
No. A buyer or dealer may inspect the vehicle and adjust an offer based on its condition and local demand.
Why do valuation sources disagree?
They may use different data, dates, transaction types, and assumptions about mileage and condition.
