We Will Buy Your Car in Chicago, IL
What Preparations Should I Make Before Selling My Car?
Part of how smoothly and efficiently a car sale occurs is by choosing a reliable buyer. Rather than try to go through a list of entities to sell it to, any of our McGrath Imports dealers will be happy to inspect it and give you a cash amount. We’ll be here during open hours for any questions about the final sale.
Preparations
If you’ve sold other property types before, such as a house or even a simple garage sale, you are likely to already know that items in good condition sell for a higher price. The same concept comes with selling or trading in your ride, so spend some time looking after the cleanliness of the rear seats, front cabin, windshield, and other surface areas of the automobile. Now would be a needed time to have a multi-point inspection scheduled with any of our locations, which is a thorough process where we identify any mechanical irregularities and perform the required maintenance. After you pay for the service, you will want to hold on to the receipt and any other paperwork that has the details of what transpired, since maintenance records can raise your final appraisal.
Selling
If you need more time to find the ride that you need, but you are eager to give the keys of your vehicle to a buyer as soon as possible, then you’ll want to sell it. You might be unsure how easy giving us your automobile can be since we have multiple locations. The good news is that we have a dropdown menu called Sell Us Your Vehicle without having to dig through links and buttons on our website. You’ll select the link that has a similar name to the dropdown menu. Then, just choose the location that you want through the button that says “Sell Us Your Vehicle” below each dealer address, and then you’ll be requested information to help us value your ride.
Trading In
It may very well be the case that you’ve already gone through our online inventory and found the ride of your dreams. If so, then combine the process of selling your automobile and buying one of ours in a trade-in. The fastest way to do so is by clicking on the link that says, “Value Your Trade.” This is found both under the New or Used dropdowns, but you should know that it leads to a different page to calculate an appraisal from the one for selling your automobile. The estimate that appears is an approximate amount, so it's not set in stone as maintenance records and quality upkeep of your vehicle can help you boost the dollar figure.
We will buy your car in Chicago, IL, and are eager to give you advice on your next set of wheels. Head on over to a McGrath Imports dealer to receive your final appraisal!

Easy to work with
“ Been looking to upgrade to a newer vehicle for a long time. Would be first time buying something this new along with financing. Tom Hong helped me just about every step of the way into getting my new (to me) 4runner. Any questions I had I’d send an email to him and I’d get a response within minutes. Kept me up to date on price changes, appointments. Took the extra step of letting me inspect the underside of the vehicle to make sure it was clean which a lot of places I’ve been to didn’t let me do. Overall everyone is very friendly and easy to work with. thank you Tom for getting me into my new 4runner! ”

Easiest car buying experience
“ Easiest car buying experiences ever. Our sales specialist, Kevin Jovaisas, was awesome. He was very friendly, transparent with the price and rebates/discounts, very knowledgeable about the car and helped my wife with the Genesis app, asked us what we wanted in the deal, and made everything work for both parties. I would highly recommend Kevin and his team and would definitely refer them to my friends and family for future Hyundai or Genesis purchases. ”
Highly recommend
“ I went with my dad because he was in the market for a new car. He had a Mercedes Benz. He ended up getting a genesis gv 70 and the car is insanely beautiful. Much better quality and a cooler looking car compared to Mercedes. My man Kevin took the time to help us and go over the car. Buying a car is a stressful experience but Kevin made it a very relaxed environment. He called me the next day to see how everything was going which I certainly appreciated. He made it a very personable experience. The only downside in my opinion is the location of the dealer. It’s on a very busy street. And I initially didn’t know where I was able to park my car. Overall, I recommend going to this location and asking for Kevin if you are in the market for a new car. Thanks guys! ”

This is my place now
“ Came in on a whim and worked with Ryan Lewin. If not for the courtesy and professionalism I would have waited, shopped around, or just plain missed an awesome opportunity! Dealership was clean and well prepared for my visit. The process was smooth easy and most importantly quick and efficient! I’m leaving here without a complaint in the world and happy to own an Acura. This is my place now, this is where I’ll be coming for vehicles. Thanks McGrath Acura and thanks Ryan Lewin! ”
“ This would be my 2nd purchase at this location. When I tell you they don't mess around.... they don't mess around. Each time, I came in with what I wanted to spend and they pointed me right in that direction. No waiting around for them to get my hopes up for hours and then slam an amount down I didn't want to spend. THEY ARE THE BEST AROUND. I can not wait to see the new location. I WILL never go to another place to purchase a vehicle. ”
