Trade-ins

Our mission is to do everything possible to ensure you the best bottom line on the purchase of your new car. For this reason, when it comes to your trade-in, we feel it is important that you be advised of all your options.

If you need to transfer the equity from your existing car into your new one, you have an important decision to make...

Should you trade in your car, or sell it yourself?

Maximizing dollars with a private sale

If you can sell your used car yourself, for close to its full retail value, you will definitely end up ahead. Selling your car yourself will take some time, effort and may delay the process if you do not have a buyer waiting. However, if you can sell your car yourself, you will likely end up from $1,000 to $3,000 ahead.

It is important to note that the difference between the trade-in value and the private sale price does not actually save you as much as it appears, because of the way in which provincial and federal sales taxes are applied to the sale of new cars.

Maximizing convenience with a trade-in

If you do not have the time or desire to sell your car yourself, we will help you arrange a fair trade-in. Once we have negotiated the lowest possible price on your new car, we will set up an appointment for the dealer to evaluate your trade.
