I have a Model Y on order, and I listed my current car as a trade-in when putting in my order with Tesla.
Now I see that Carvana is offering me $11,800 for my current car - about $4,000 more than Tesla's offer. (I'm amazed at how much I can get for a 10 yr old car.)
I've never sold a car through Carvana, Carmax, etc before - how dependable is their offer? I've read that if you trade-in with Tesla, they barely look at the car and will take it no questions asked. Is Carvana the same, or could they look at my car and say "Nah, we'll only give you $5,000 for that"? I was honest when filling out the info on Carvana, but they don't really ask for a lot of information, and I'm sure that an auto mechanic could find things wrong if they looked, and it has it's fair share of minor scrapes, dings and scratches.
