Sold one to VROOM!

I sold my 2017 accord sport to them. Had 2k negative equity so I had to pay them the difference. Car was going to be over mileage, need new tires and a couple of other things so I let it go. They worked pretty quickly to get the documents to me. I signed and sent them back. They next linked me with the transportation that would be coming to pick up the car. Monday they said the car would be picked up Wednesday the pickup guy made it Thursday because his truck was full on Wednesday. Friday they mailed the check to Honda financial and it got there on Monday. Honda didn’t show account paid and closed till Friday. They needed five days to process a check which is ridiculous. I would do it all again if I had to. I only had it for a year and was never satisfied with it because I wish I would have got the touring model. I am happy now.

Yeah :frowning: I wish honda financial would’ve accepted a wire transfer. I was worried the entire time vroom had my car and the check was on its way to honda.

After more than 2 mo trying to sell private party and lowered price, decided to get vroom quoted twice with the same offer so I know it’s time :grinning:
2015 Audi A3 Premium FWD
20.3k miles $16500

I just used the Vroom as well. Got an acceptable offer.
Trust the process.

Interesting thing happened with me. Last month I got quoted on my Optima SXL for 21500. Pay off was around 22000. Carvana was worse. Checked Again this month after making another 250 payment and this time it asked what I expected to get, so I put in 21750. They then offered me 21750. Im like 25 bucks in equity now and my car went up in value from last month even after about 800 miles. So try again and ask for more if you didn’t get what you wanted the first time.

Yeah i have seen some people state that. Kinda odd. But might be because they are short on ur model at the moment in inventory.
Its fun doing and almost feels like your running ur credit every month but without being dinged

Actually thinking of rolling it into lunch at Arby’s. Only reason I want out is I hate the seats. Stinger has the same seats.

Does anyone have any experience selling a leased car to vroom in Minnesota? If so, how fast is the process between them paying off the leasing company?

We have the meats…

Lol they have been playing that commercial non stop

During the process of leasing a new car for my wife, we opted to sell her financed CX-5. After reading this thread and the similar one about Carvana I decided to check them out. Carvana offered me $14,200 while both the dealer and Vroom offered me $14,000

Ended up selling it to the dealer because the convenience of just leaving the car and walking away with a check was worth the $200 to me, but their pricing was definitely competitive.

That would have been one month’s worth of Arby’s lunches …

I have started the process of selling my Murano. I have accepted their offer, filled out initial form online, and am waiting for them to send paperwork.

I’m hoping to have the positive experience most users here have touted!

Kinda fun to get to shop earlier than we would have by closing lease in April 2019.

Now to make the wifey happy with a new ride . . .

How could I have been so careless?!? Now I’ll be forced to eat Wendy’s for lunch…

I hear McDs has some $1 value menu items and some coupons on their app

So Nissan doesn’t play so nicely with Vroom.

Learned that Nissan Financial requires transaction to go through a dealer. They allude to it being a Nissan dealer, of course.

But guess what dealer we sold to? Carmax.

Super easy. Arrived at noon. Left sans Murano at 1 PM with a check for the equity. Done and done.

Suck it Nissan Financial.

Three cheers to Carmax for quick and easy deal.

See ya in the trophy garage.

So you were not able to sell your lease to Vroom.

I am wanting to get out of my wifes Altima lease as we are way over on miles. We have 7 Months left and are just about at the 36k. At this point we are pretty much accepting that we will owe like 1k or so at the end plus disposition. I received an offer from Vroom for 13.5k payoff is 14.5k. So we would owe the remainder to Vroom?
