When you’re ready to upgrade your ride, getting rid of your current car can be a headache. Taking photographs and making a private listing takes time and effort, with no guarantee of a sale. In contrast, trading in your vehicle at your local Mazda dealership is fast, simple, and convenient. Discover more trade-in benefits by talking to your local dealership today.
Five Benefits of Trading in Your Vehicle at Your Mazda Dealership
1: Competitive Valuation
When you trade your car in at Mazda, you’ll always get a fair and transparent valuation. We use Kelley Blue Book to calculate the value of your car, which takes into account the condition of your car, market demand, and any regional differences. The result is a very competitive trade-in value that is guaranteed for seven days, with no catches or hidden costs.
2: Convenient Transfer
Selling your car privately can be a lot of hard work, which can be frustrating when you’re keen to purchase your new one. Trading in your car makes the process simple, with all the admin taken care of by the dealership. Everything from the initial valuation to the transfer of title is handled on-site, leaving you free to get on with choosing your new car right away.
3: No Risk of Fraud
Putting your details online can be risky, and there are no guarantees of a secure transaction. Some scammers target private car sellers, fraudulently claiming their money back once they have your car. Trading your car in carries none of these risks. Simply visit your local dealership and complete the sale with a simple, secure transaction that’s guaranteed.
4: Tax Advantages
Some states, including here in Illinois, provide a tax advantage when you offset your trade-in valuation against the cost of a new car. The sales tax only applies to the purchase price after the trade-in value has been deducted. For example, if you trade your car in for $12,000 and your new car costs $35,000, you’ll only pay tax on the difference of $23,000. This can save you a substantial amount in tax and makes a trade-in even more valuable.
5: All Cars Accepted
When you trade your car in, you don’t need to worry about local demand or whether your car is looking its best. You can trade your car in even if it needs a little bit of work, cosmetically or mechanically. This can save you time and money in the long run, freeing you up to focus on your new purchase.
