  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Have you sold a car to Vroom?

If so, how did it go?

I'm considering selling my car, and they made the best offer, but some of the 1-star reviews are a bit concerning. Love to hear your experience.

TIA
 
I'm in the same boat as you. They beat everyone's offer by at least 3k but the reviews scare me. Not to mention the fact that they take your car and title(if paid off), yet don't pay you on the spot like Carvana.

Quite a few reviews on the stinger forum. I was thinking about doing that for my car but ended up working out almost even to do a trade in for the sales tax savings.

Thanks for the link - seems most people there who actually sold their cars to vroom had a good experience.
 
Sold my car to them. gave me 40k for a 2020 3.3T elite package with 20k miles.

Never take their first offer. They called me 4 days later and offered me 2.5k more than the original. It honestly was so easy. Accepted the offer, filled out some stuff online, they sent me an overnight package to sign some stuff and overnight it back. 5 days later someone picked up the car and then 3 days after that I had a check in the mail. Whole thing took 11 days to have money in my hand.

I would recommend to try it. It was the easiest sell I have ever done.

FWIW I did BUY a car from Vroom and that process went smoothly and was super easy. Lots of people sell to Vroom without issue, and if I had a replacement car lined up I would probably do the same. They offered me 4k over my lease buyout last I checked, and the used market is still bananas.

I got my 2019 Himalayan grey g70 from vroom. Really pleased. The only issue is that because people test drive then regularly and have to pay or finance every time it gets sent back an added for sale listing goes on the vin.

How many times was your car up for sale? Have you checked your vin?

I don't know where the provided carfax went so I'm not entirely sure. I don't imagine it would be too many, as the car was underpriced relative to similar examples since I don't think the Burnished Copper color is everyone's cup of tea.

Give it a try. That's where I go to get general Info before I think about purchasing vehicles.

Wow that's a cool tool and I'm definitely bookmarking it.

Double wow, it actually has a ton of sale records listed. I don't think that's people buying and returning it though, since it has the same mileage every time and that was the mileage we bought it with. It looks like there's a new listing every time they change the price.

This actually makes me feel like a winner, because it seems they initially priced it at almost 19k and dropped it numerous times until we finally bought it for 17.3k.

Oddly, the sale listings are also over the place in terms of geography, but the last listing was Indiannapolis and car came with an Indiana title in the name of Hyundai's subsiduary, clearly an off-lease car.

So normally with vroom. Buyers finance with vroom so they "test drive the car" for 7 days/250 miles. And if they aren't satisfied then they return it. I'm certain every time the car is test driven they have to take the listing off the selling section if the car is returned because the seller just wanted to joy ride a vehicle then the car gets re listed for sale and it takes a hit on the vin. That I'm sure is why your vehicle (and mine) had so many listed for sale hits on the vin. It goes all over the country when people want to potentially buy a vehicle with vroom. Since I financed with my credit union they were bugging me after the deposit( Wich I think stays in your vroom account to test drive other cars) so after my deposit they were asking for the payment in full to release the vehicle to me...
Being new to the process i had no way to send them the $36k, my credit union took care of the payment and the car was released to me.

Over all I was pleased with the process ...but the vin check was weird in that sense.

2019 g70 2.0T (what ever the highest trim is) with 3.8k miles. Burgundy wrapped dash, black seats.

Wish there was a search option that allowed to search by trim with actual results of interior by year.

Idk what my interior colorway is called
 
Looks like my time with the G70 may be ending soon. Vroom has made me the highest offer recently and I might just jump on it.
