Trade-in valuation

What's your car worth?

The Model Black estimates your trade from real market comps, so you walk in knowing roughly what it is worth. Tell us about the car to sharpen the estimate; when you send your deal, the dealership puts its own number on it. No credit pull.

Illustrative estimate only. This is not an offer to purchase your vehicle, an appraisal, or a guarantee of its value, and The Model Black does not buy vehicles. It is based on market data for similar vehicles and the information you entered, not an inspection of your car. For an appraisal, send your car's details and photos to the dealership on your deal. Its trade number may be higher or lower than this estimate. It's final once the dealership inspects your car, and it holds if your car arrives in the condition you described, with the title and payoff you gave. Market values change daily.
