How Does Selling a Car to a Dealership Work if the Car is Still Financed?

How does selling a car to a dealership work if you still owe money on it? You can still sell your car. How it proceeds depends on whether you owe more or less than what it is worth:

  • If the car is worth more than what you owe – the dealership will pay off your loan and apply the rest of the value to the purchase of your new car or give you the rest in the case of an outright sale.
  • If you owe more than the car is worth – either you can pay off the loan before selling the car or the dealership will pay off the loan but add the difference between what you owe and the value of the car to loan on your new car.
