Price LeBlanc Toyota wants to buy your car! Now that you’re ready to take advantage of the current market and upgrade to a new Toyota, use these tips to make sure you get the best value for your trade-in.

  • Perform your own inspection. You can’t fix up your car unless you know what’s wrong! Take stock of dents or dings, perform outstanding maintenance, and have a friend go for a test drive to see what you might have missed.
  • Take on minor repairs. Check your lights, top off your fluids, and take care of any other small repairs. Major repairs are best handled by a dealership.
  • Clean your car, inside and out. We know how to value a vehicle, but you know how to get that stain in the backseat out. The more detailing you can do on your own, the better!
  • Gather important documents. Make sure you have your service records, title, and registration. Cars with regular maintenance records retain much more of their value.
  • Find all the accessories. Spare keys? Spare floormats? Cargo netting? Bring it all with you!
