How to Trade In a Car: Step by Step

Get Your Trade-In Car Value

First things first, you’ll want to do some research to determine the value of your current vehicle. We have simplified things at Mercedes-Benz of Lynnwood with the access to a simple and easy value your trade tool. All you need to do is enter your car’s year, make, and model, along with your name, email, and phone number. Then provide information about the vehicle’s condition, and you’ll receive the estimated value of your car. If you want to dive deeper, there are other online tools available, such as Kelley Blue Book® Value and Edmunds True Market Value®.

Get an Appraisal

After getting your estimate, visit our Mercedes-Benz dealership near Edmonds for an appraisal. Our experts will take a look at your car’s condition, inside and out, take into consideration our current used inventory, and we will help you determine whether we can sell the vehicle and for how much. Be sure to bring your trade-in value estimate for our reference.

Negotiate or Accept a Trade-In Offer

After we finish the appraisal, you can either negotiate or accept the offer outright to close the deal. Other advantages of this process include:

• Unlike many Bothell-area used-car retailers, you can negotiate the best price. The first offer you’re given isn’t necessarily set in stone, and you can choose to haggle up based on the trade-in value research you’ve done.
• If you’re upside down on your auto loan and want to consolidate what you owe with the price of your new car, our finance team can help you do that.

After accepting the offer, you can finalize your trade for cash, or put the value of your trade-in towards the purchase of a new car.
