I bought a Jeep Cherokee about 3 months ago for $20,995 plus tax, tag, title. Total came out to be $23,100. I just went and put in the vehicle info on the vroom website and they’re offering me $24,700 for the vehicle. I wasn’t really planning to sell this soon but if they’re offering me $1,600 more than what I paid for the vehicle it sure makes it tempting.
What do you guys think? Go ahead and do it and go buy me a new car?
You should see how much it’s going to cost your new ride first.
I would get something different but I could get the same exact vehicle brand new (2021) for about $22k.
Would it be cheaper to sell off my BMW, which is under miles, at a $750 loss than deal with BMW’s lease return and negotiate with BMWFS to waive the fees off? I’ll be leasing another BMW or maybe a different brand. One tire has a patch, 3 tires probably need replacements, curb rashes, and car has front bumper scratches.
I uploaded my documents to vroom on Sat and I have heard nothing but crickets. These people must be swamped.
I uploaded my docs last Wednesday and didn’t hear back until Monday (14th to 19th.) During that period they had to get the buyout from Audi…who knows what part of that delay was on Audi. Since Monday everything has progressed very quickly and I’m now waiting for the carrier to contact me for pickup.
ally bank dealer payoff is market value based, just like Audi fs
Nope. They can charge brand or bank dealers, third party dealers, and you all different amounts.
They just increased the offer by another $400. I think i’m gonna take it. Free money.
I think Vroom just had a technical glitch, about 2 weeks ago I was checking for my brother how much his 2019 Mazda CX-5 with only 3000 miles would get, he does not need the vehicle anymore and has over 1 year left on lease. Vroom offer was 26,000 which is about 1k over payoff. Go to check again today and its 39,000???!! Major glitch/error but Ill put it through and wait for them to say ummm nope that was an error.
They just offered $25k on my 2020 Jeep Cherokee that I paid $21k +TTL about 3 months ago. It had a sticker price of just over $30k but I was able to get 30% off with rebates when I bought it. I got it in January 2021 and it’s a 2020 model. I’m shocked they’re offering so much but the KBB trade-in value is around $23.1k so they’re about 2k over that. I hope it’s not an error…I just did the first step and they said they’re gonna send me the paperwork via fedex. Let’s see…
It must happen quite a bit with Vroom. I got an offer actually couple of times through them on 2020 Tundra for only $5k.
Was offered 8k over pay off for my m340i 11 months into my lease. Carvana came under pay off and Carmax about 4K over.
Wasn’t looking to get rid of the car due to my low payments but 8k is hard to turn down… will report back if things go through.
Similar situation here. Vroom is offering about $5k over payoff on my 2019 GLC lease. Certainly hard to turn this down. Carvana and carmax offers were both about $3k over payoff.
Closing the loop here.
Msrp of truck was 47500 18 months ago
Vroom offer 45300
Ally “market based payoff” 43200
Listing on Vroom at 49180
Impressive 8,000 miles in 18 months - did you even have to change the oil!??
Grrrrrrrrr. We only like market based when it is in the consumers favor😊
Any recent experiences here selling a mercedes lease to vroom? Just want to make sure I’m not signing up for too big of a headache.
As an update, I sold the 2019 corolla (~7k miles) to Vroom at ~$13400 late Jan. They overnighted the documents and, in retrospect, I am very happy with the transaction. I may come back and add more detailed timeline if there’s any interest in that sort of detail for this.
How did you go about getting the payoff amount from Ally? It’s like pulling teeth. My offer from Vroom went from 35,250 to $36,000 in the past week on my Tacoma. 20 months into lease with 20k miles on it.
