Bring your car to Lute Riley Honda, and we'll carefully inspect and
drive your car to determine your appraisal offer.
We'll check:
Interior and exterior condition-excessive wear and tear may affect your
car's appraisal offer.
Mileage/age-excessive miles may lower your offer and narrow its resale
market.
Paint and body for paint lines, over-spray, body putty, dents, scratches, and
other signs of previous body repair. Frame damage will also affect your offer
because it shows your car has been in a serious accident. At Lute Riley Honda, we don't
resell frame-damaged vehicles to our customers. These vehicles are sold at
wholesale auctions to other dealers.
Step two: the offer
We'll give you a free written offer good for 7 days.
Step three: complete the sale
When you decide to sell your car to Lute Riley Honda, bring all your
paperwork and any car accessories, including extra keys, to Lute Riley Honda with your
car. (See our list of what to bring for more information.) Lute Riley Honda will buy your car, whether you buy one
from us or not.
We'll help you with your paperwork, and if there's a pay-off involved, we'll
call your finance company to determine your balance. A bank draft may be issued
to you for the difference. If there is negative equity, we'll calculate the
difference between your pay-off and our offer to you. We'll accept a cashier's
check or certified check for the amount you owe and then pay off the finance
company. In some cases, the negative equity can be included in your financing
when you buy or lease from Lute Riley Honda.
