Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about buying and financing a used car in Detroit. Don't see your question? Call us at 313-891-8000.

Do I really only need a State ID to buy a car?

Yes. Bring a valid State ID or driver's license and we can get you approved and driving. If you have proof of income and proof of residence handy, bring those too; they can speed things up, but the ID is the only must-have.

I have bad credit or no credit. Can I still get approved?

Yes. We work with all credit situations including good credit, bad credit, no credit, and past bankruptcy. Approval is based on your income and your down payment, not just a credit score.

Will applying affect my credit score?

Yes. Our credit application is a hard inquiry, which will affect your credit score. However, we work with all credit situations and encourage you to apply — approval is based on your income and down payment, not just your score.

How much do I need for a down payment?

Down payments vary by vehicle and income, but we have $0 down options available. Tell us what you can put down and we will match you with cars that work for your budget.

What kind of income do you accept?

All of it: W-2 paychecks, self-employed and 1099 income, SSI and disability, retirement, and cash income. If you have steady money coming in, we can usually work with it.

Do you take trade-ins?

Yes, any make, any model, any condition, running or not. Your trade can lower your down payment or your monthly payment. Tell us about it on the contact page or drive it up to the lot.

Can financing a car help rebuild my credit?

It can. On-time car payments are reported and show lenders you are reliable, which can raise your score over time. Many of our customers use their auto loan as a first step toward rebuilding credit.

How fast can I drive home?

Most customers drive home the same day. Come in with your State ID, pick your car, and we will handle the paperwork on the spot. Applying online first makes it even quicker.

Are your cars inspected?

Yes. Every vehicle on the lot is inspected before it goes up for sale, and you are welcome to test drive and look everything over. Stop and look, it's in the name.
