I didn't realize I could sell a car this easily.

When I first listed my 2019 Toyota RAV4 on Craigslist, I got nothing but a few calls that went nowhere. I was going to spend on other listings, and then I found Nexus. In a few minutes, I got my car value evaluated and uncovered a few buyers without paying anything. I struck a deal with a nearby car dealer for more than I initially hoped! I didn't realize I could sell a car this easily, so thanks Nexus.

No Hassles, Great Communication

I shipped two cars all the way from west coast to east coast, and both cars were transported with no hassle from the day I booked with Nexus. Customer support was always easily available on phone, once a driver was assigned, their dispatch team was also very communicative. One of my cars were delivered in two days, I wasn’t really expecting it to be this fast.

A New Go-To Company

First I was working with another transport company and for three days I didn't hear anything. So I contacted Nexus Auto Transport and the communication was outstanding. They communicated with me daily and responded within minutes when I needed them. They transported my 65 mustang from Colorado to Houston in no time. They will be my go-to auto transport company from now on.

Rare Level of Service

Excellent service, efficiency, and care for my vehicle. Moving cross country was very difficult overall, but not in regards to my vehicle. Our driver was incredibly quick, careful, and caring whilst transporting our car. Customer service is excellent from this firm, which is very rare nowadays. I recommend this company with 0 apprehensions.

Calmed My Nerves

I used nexus to send my car from Washington to Florida and back again in 2021. Both times they were up front with the pricing, took very good care of my car and delivered the car earlier than expected. I was nervous to send my new car on an open truck across the country, but now I wouldn’t think twice about using nexus to do it.

Impressed, Not Stressed

I was nervous about picking a car transport company because I was reading so many negative reviews about being charged a different price, not being able to get in touch with the carrier, the car never being picked up etc. I chose nexus because I was impressed with how easy it was to get in touch with them, and their non aggressive sales approach. The car was picked up on time, I was able to speak to the driver for updates and it arrived on time. I was not charged extra and it was very stress free. I was very impressed and would recommend nexus to others

In the middle of a moving emergency, the dispatcher hustled for me and scheduled the pick-up of my 2020 Fusion the very next day. The agent offered me a very affordable rate which was hundreds of dollars cheaper than the first company I called. The truck-drivers and Nexus agent were kind people and just overall great in terms of service. I would definitely recommend using to anyone looking to move their car over a long distance

My experience with Nexus auto transport was excellent....definitely 5 star. The assigned driver was on time and thoroughly briefed me on the procedures he would follow and the route he would take. He kept me informed of his progress and was very accommodating to a change I requested in the day and time for delivering the vehicle.

Can't Beat This Service.

Needed 2 cars transported from New Jersey to California. The agent from Nexus Auto Transport provided a fast quote that was very competitive with clear expectations of timeline for payments, pickup and delivery. They subcontracted for actual transport which had some hiccups, but the agent was my advocate and made sure everything went smoothly with the shipping team. He is very responsive to text and calls. Ultimately our cars were delivered safely and EARLY! Can't beat that.

Professionalism That's Worth More

I researched and got a few quotes to ship my Jeep on a truck instead of driving. Nexus was a bit more expensive than others, but sounded and looked more legit then the competition so I Got my car delivered by Nexus from LA to Dallas last week. It was a great service and their timing was as promised. I definitely recommend using them even if it costs you more, it was worth it for their professional service and my peace of mind to have my car arrive safely and promptly.

This was the first time we shipped a car, so it was a little scary but it turned out great. Customer service was always helpful, the price was the best we found and the carrier that picked up our car was reliable and flexible. It was faster than expected and they were happy to change the drop off location (in the same town) at the last minute. Would recommend and use again.

The agent from Nexus was an absolute pleasure to work with and had great customer service skills. We had another reservation with another company who wasn't following up and felt helpless.

He fulfilled and exceeded our expectations and thank you again!

Flawless, Excellent Transaction

I received a quote within minutes and it was better priced than the other half a dozen ones I received. Actually, I was a bit skeptical because of that. However, I went along with my gut feeling and used them. They did an excellent job! I put them directly in contact with the party I bought the car from and they did the rest. They picked up the car on schedule. Then, a day later I received a call from the driver letting me know he was in town and on his way to drop off my vehicle. The whole transaction was flawless and done by text and email. Definitely recommended and I will certainly use them again.

FAQ

You have a higher risk/reward ratio when selling used cars privately instead of selling a car to an auto dealership. However, private car sales take much longer than selling a car to a car dealership, and they also require you to parse out potential scammers and "window shoppers."

Selling a car to Carvana or another online car-buying service is much less profitable. The returns are fixed, and there is no room for negotiation. Our Nexus car selling portal provides a fair appraisal of your vehicle's current value and instant access to the best car dealers in the United States. We facilitate a sense of competitiveness between vehicle dealers. When dealers vie for your car, it increases its return value, getting you the most bang for your car-selling buck.

Get the best overall value for selling your used car by having dealerships compete for your business. The more interested parties you have looking to buy your used car, the higher return you'll be able to swing in negotiations. When you sell cars privately, you often compete against yourself and your expectations for a sale.

When you connect with competing automotive dealerships through our Portal, you can use bidding between parties for leverage. This allows you to get a high-value return for sedans, pickup trucks, SUVs, or any other passenger vehicle you can think of.

A direct bank transfer is the most secure way to receive payment when selling a used car. Bank transfers use multiple fraud prevention techniques to trace and validate funds exchanged between parties. Reputable car dealerships usually choose bank transfers for safety, security, and accurate documentation of a sale.

Note: wire bank transfers can take multiple days to complete. Please consult one of our dealership partners and your bank for an accurate estimation of funds availability.

The best way to find fair market value when selling a car is with a trusted car dealership, especially if multiple dealers compete for your vehicle. When selling a car to a private buyer, there is boom/bust potential for securing close to, if not complete, market value. However, it's exceedingly rare, and you'll likely have to compromise after weeks of inaction.

With our Nexus Car Value Calculator, you'll receive an accurate vehicle valuation upfront. Then, you'll be connected with dealers in your area or across the United States, ready to buy your car now. With multiple dealerships vying for your vehicle, you can extract a fair return from your car in relation to its current market value.

Required documents for selling a car online vary from state to state. However, you will likely have two, if not all three, of the following pieces of paperwork:

  • Title: An original or replacement title is a non-negotiable requirement for an online car sale. A title validates ownership and contains vital vehicle information, including the VIN, make and model, and year of manufacture.
  • Notice of Sale: Most states require you to complete a Notice of Sale through a local DMV within 10 days. This transfers liability from the online car seller to the buyer. You may be held responsible for subsequent incidents if you do not complete a Notice of Sale within the required timeframe.
  • Bill of Sale: A bill of sale is usually not a requirement when selling a vehicle online. However, it is still a key legal document that can help a seller deflect legal responsibility in case of litigation or lawsuits down the road.

Other online car sales documents worth maintaining and filing include:

  • A current odometer reading.
  • A vehicle history report secured from a trusted online provider.
  • Active warranties.
  • Applicable maintenance records.
  • Applicable vehicle records.
  • Included manuals and related paperwork.

You are not legally required to complete a vehicle inspection before selling an automobile online. However, it is advisable to do so when disclosing key vehicle records and information to an online buyer.

When you sell a car to a Nexus-vetted car dealership, they will dispatch a vehicle inspector to ensure that your used car is in the condition you've disclosed. Failure to disclose preexisting issues will decrease your potential return and could nullify the sale altogether. If you sell a car to a private buyer under false pretenses, you leave yourself open to legal issues down the road.

Yes, selling a used car you are currently financing or owe money on is possible. However, you must pay off your lender before legally transferring a title to a car buyer. Contact your lender before the sale to receive your current payoff amount.

Other options include trading it in. With our Nexus Portal, you can negotiate with top dealerships in your area of residence or anywhere else in the United States. Dealerships often agree to pay your current auto loan in part or whole as per the terms of the trade-in agreement. You can also sell a car to a private buyer while owing money provided the buyer is willing to take legal responsibility for the remainder of the vehicle loan.

The average time to sell a used car privately online is a month or more. With our Nexus Portal, you can find a dealership that buys cars and completes a deal within a few days.

The auto dealerships on our Portal are currently looking to buy cars like yours, which means quicker negotiations and potentially a much quicker sale. You can even expand your car-selling net to other states and enjoy the benefits of our 5-star shipping management services.

After you accept a used car sale offer from one of the dealerships on our Portal, the dealer will arrange the necessary paperwork to complete the transaction. Be sure to find or secure the original or replacement title for the vehicle to transfer ownership officially.

Once you sign all applicable paperwork and agree to the sale, the buyer will dispatch a vehicle inspector to ensure the car is in the condition you've disclosed. If everything checks out, you can either drive it to a nearby dealership or enjoy stress-free pickup through one of Nexus Auto Transport's trusted trucking partners. The buyer will complete all shipping arrangements, so all you have to do is be present for the pickup, complete a pre-shipping inspection, and sign off!

Note: Be sure to complete a Notice of Sale with your local DMV and send any necessary paperwork or e-signatures to the dealership purchasing your used car.

No, current car registration is not required to sell a used car online. It is always up to the buyer to agree to the terms of any sale. However, the car dealerships on our Nexus Portal do not require current or non-expired vehicle registration to complete a sale or trade-in.

You can sell a used car online in any condition. From salvages to cars like new, as long as you find a buyer and properly disclose the car's condition, you may legally transfer ownership in an online car sale.

Receive a free appraisal from our online car value calculator, and we'll assess key factors such as your vehicle's make, model, year, and current condition. Once a fair market value is assessed, you can use it to negotiate with multiple dealers both in your area and across the United States.

There are no hidden fees when selling a car to a trusted car dealership using our Nexus Portal. All fees and payments will be negotiated directly between you and the buyer. Pickup/delivery fees will be covered in your payment agreement, and all shipping arrangements will be arranged between the buyer and our Nexus Auto Transport dispatch staff.

One fee to consider, however, is the title transfer fee. Most car title transfer fees range from $80 to $120, varying from state to state.
