Value Your Trade With Phil Smith Acura In Pompano Beach, FL

It's Easy To Value Your Trade In Pompano Beach, FL

Did you know you can value your trade online, get an offer, and then decide if you'd like to accept? Many of our customers at Phil Smith Acura have never used a vehicle trade-in program to gain credit toward another car, so they're unfamiliar with the process. Let's demystify how our Acura trade-in program works and get you one step closer to making a trade-in worth your time in Pompano Beach, FL.

What Is Vehicle Trade-In Value?

Vehicle trade-in value is the amount of money a dealership will give you for your current car. Trade-in worth is typically lower – but not by much – than resale value because, once a dealership accepts your vehicle, they assume responsibility for repairing and restoring it. At our Pompano Beach, FL, dealership, we take pride in our transparent, competitive, and expert-led Acura trade-in deals that give you the best possible offers, no matter which automotive brand you own.

How Does "Value Your Trade" Work?

Our "value your trade" process is simple – here's an outline to get you started:

  • Enter your information into the CARFAX®-powered Acura trade-in calculator on this page – we accept nearly every make and model.
  • CARFAX® will assess your vehicle's records to determine its trade-in worth.
  • Receive an online offer for your vehicle trade-in.
  • If you choose to accept our vehicle trade-in value, you can schedule an in-person appointment at our Pompano Beach, FL, dealership.
  • A Phil Smith Acura certified technician will examine your vehicle and confirm your car's trade-in worth.
  • We'll sign paperwork together to make the trade official, and you'll be free to shop for a new daily driver.

What if I owe more than my car is worth?

Owing more than your car is worth doesn't disqualify you from our Acura trade-in program; it just means that you'll need to pay the difference between your car's value and your remaining loan costs or roll your remaining balance into a new loan.
