Selling your vehicle can be a headache. We made it simple.
No listings, no test-drive strangers, no haggling at a dealership desk. Here’s exactly what happens when you sell to Auto Whiz.
Enter your vehicle information
Our application takes about five minutes. Start with your VIN or license plate, then tell us about mileage, condition, options and history.
- Have your VIN handy (see where to find it below)
- Note any warning lights, damage or recent repairs
- Mention upgrades, packages and service records — they add value
Receive your estimate within 24 hours
We’ll email you an estimate built on your car’s real details. The final number is confirmed at inspection, where we review:
- Accident and damage history
- Ownership history
- Tire and brake wear
- Overall cosmetic and mechanical condition
Schedule your inspection
Pick the time and place that works for you — at your home or office within our service radius, at our Rancho Palos Verdes facility, or at a mutual meeting spot. Most inspections take about 30 minutes.
Finalize paperwork & get paid
We prepare the paperwork, you review and sign, and payment is set up instantly at pickup. If you have a loan, we’ll coordinate the payoff with your lender.
