A: YES! In Fact, we'll buy your car even if you don't buy one from us!
Q: Can I get my car appraised online?
A: You must bring your car to CYV to receive an appraisal. To determine your offer, one of our appraisers will need to inspect and test drive your car.
Q: What happens to the cars CYV buys?
A: Even though we buy any car, about half of those bought by CYV will never be sold to the public. Each car must pass our rigorous 150 point optimum inspection before we will consider it for our lot, and cars that don't meet our high quality standards are sold at auctions.
Q: Will you explain how your appraised my car?
A: If you have any questions about the appraisal of your car, speak with the appraiser who developed the offer. Our appraisers can provide a thorough explanation about the factors that influenced the offer.
Q: What makes CYV different from tradtional dealer appraisals?
A: The CYV offer is good for 7 days, and is valid whether you buy a car from us or not. Most traditional dealerships appraisals are based on you trading in your car for a new one, and they won't buy your car outright. If you decide not to buy a car from us, your offer will stay the same.
Q: Will making modifications to my car effect the offer?
A: Supply and demand ultimately determines the desireability of any car or feature in the marketplace. A feature sometimes could improve the offer, and other times it could have a negative impact depending on the feature/modification. Sometimes, an aftermarket modification may void the factory warranty, thus reducing the offer.
Q: Will regular maintenance/repairs affect the offer?
A: Your car's overall physical and mechanical condition will have an impact on your appraisal offer.
Q: If I choose to sell CYV my car, could I get my car back?
A: No. All car sales to CYV or final.
Q: What if I have a lien on my car?
A: We will need to contact your lien holder during business hours to get a 15 day payoff. To pay off the lien, we will need your lien holder's account name and phone number, the name(s) on the account, and your lien holder's account number. If a previously paid-off lien is listed as the title, you'll need both the title and the lien release from the lien holder before we can purchase the car.
Q: How can I save on taxes if I buy and sell at CYV?
A: Lower the amount of taxes you pay when you buy a CYV car when you are selling us a car at the same time.
Q: Can you sell my leased car?
A: In most cases, you can sell your leased car in almost the same way as any other financed car. We'll appraise the car or truck, then contact the leasing company for a payoff quote and process any equity you might have. Please note that some leasing companies will not allow you to sell the car prior to expiration of the lease. However, General Motors has come out with an incentive program called LEASE BUSTERS to help you get out of your lease and offer a cash rebate towards another new vehicle!
