Questions, answered plainly.

Most sellers get a written offer the same day. Send your VIN, mileage and a few photos through our cash offer form or by text, and a buyer who knows these cars replies within 15 minutes between 9am and 8pm, seven days a week. The offer is confirmed after a short in-person inspection.

We price off what the same model, spec and mileage actually sold for in the last 90 days at auction and retail, not what dealers are asking. Then we adjust for condition, service history, options and color. If you ask, we'll show you the comparable sales behind the number.

Our written offer is firm for 7 days, as long as the car matches what you described. If the inspection turns up something you didn't mention, like paint work or a warning light, we explain any change in writing before you decide. You're never obligated to accept.

By wire transfer, usually the same business day the title paperwork is signed. If there's a loan, we pay your lender directly and wire you the difference. We never ask you to release the car before funds are confirmed, and we confirm wire details by phone, never by email alone.

Yes. Tell us your lender and the approximate payoff. We request the exact payoff, pay the lender directly at closing and send you any equity. If you owe more than the car is worth, we show you the numbers first, and you can bring the difference to closing in certified funds.

Often, yes. Some leasing companies allow a dealer to buy the car out of the lease and some only allow the person on the lease to buy it out. We check your lessor's current rules before you commit. When the car is worth more than the buyout, that equity goes to you.

No. We inspect at your home or office anywhere in Southern California and pick the car up in an enclosed trailer at no cost to you. Sellers outside Southern California get a shipping plan and quote along with the offer.

Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Porsche (especially GT and Turbo models), Mercedes-AMG G63 and Maybach, Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Aston Martin and other high-end cars, usually from about $75,000 up. If you're not sure whether your car fits, send it anyway and we'll tell you honestly.

A flat commission, quoted in writing before you sign, and nothing upfront. There are no listing, photo, detailing or marketing fees. Any reconditioning, such as a detail or new tires, only happens with your written approval. The full terms are on our consignment page.

Within 3 business days after the buyer's funds clear, with a written accounting of the sale. California law gives a dealer up to 20 days to pay a consignor and provide the accounting; we don't make you wait that long.

In a separate consignment trust account, never in our operating account. Your sale proceeds are never used to buy inventory or pay business expenses. That separation is written into your consignment agreement.

Yes. The agreement runs 90 days, and you can cancel anytime with 24 hours' notice. There is no cancellation fee. You only reimburse costs you approved in writing, such as reconditioning you asked for.

Only on accompanied test drives with qualified buyers. We log every mile and cap the total at 10 miles unless you approve more in writing. The car is covered under our dealer insurance while in our care and stored indoors.

Yes. When the car sells, the buyer's funds come to us, we pay off your lender directly, and you receive the rest with a written accounting. For leased cars, we confirm first that your leasing company allows a dealer payoff. If you owe more than the sale price, you bring the difference before delivery.

Sell outright for speed and certainty: you're paid in a day or two. Consign for the most money if you can wait, typically 30 to 60 days. On a high-value car the difference can be meaningful. Our side-by-side guide walks through the math.

Yes, except what California law lets a dealer leave out. Our advertised prices include all costs to the buyer except government fees and taxes, finance charges, and any dealer document processing or electronic filing charges. No add-ons are slipped into the deal.

On used cars priced at $50,000 or less, California's CARS Act gives buyers a 3-day right to cancel the purchase, and we honor it exactly as the law requires. Most of our cars are priced above that threshold, so ask us about the terms on the specific car you're buying.

Yes, and we encourage it. You can have any car inspected by an independent shop or marque specialist of your choice before you buy. Every car we sell also comes with its full VIN, a vehicle history report and our own inspection notes.

Yes. We work with specialty lenders that finance high-value cars, often with longer terms than a typical auto loan. Approval, rate and term depend on your credit and the car. Our finance page has a calculator that shows the APR, term, down payment and total of payments together.

Yes. Tell us the model, spec, colors, mileage and budget on our Find My Car page. We search dealers, private owners and auctions, and we come back with real cars and real numbers, not a sales pitch.

A refundable deposit holds a car for an agreed period while you arrange inspection or financing. The hold terms are put in writing, so a car you've put a deposit on isn't sold to someone else while you're working through your deal.

Yes. We sell to buyers nationwide and arrange enclosed transport to your door. Paperwork is signed electronically or by overnight courier, and we confirm wire instructions by phone. See out-of-state buyers for the full process.

Within Southern California, usually a day or two. Coast to coast, enclosed transport commonly takes about 10 to 14 days depending on the route and carrier schedule. We give you a written quote and an estimated delivery window before you commit.

California-certified cars meet California emissions rules; 49-state cars were built for the rest of the country. California generally won't register a used 49-state car that has fewer than 7,500 miles. Check the emissions label under the hood before buying a low-mile car from out of state, and we'll check it for you.

Yes. Send your car's details and photos the same way any seller would. We include transport in the offer, and we can arrange an independent inspection in your area before the car is picked up.

Your title, or your lender's details if it's financed, plus registration, a photo ID, every key, and any service records, window sticker and accessories you have. We prepare the California DMV forms and walk you through every signature.

Yes. California sellers should file a Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability with the DMV within 5 days of the sale. It protects you from tickets or liability after the car leaves. We help you file it at signing so nothing is missed.

Yes. AYE Exotics is a trade name of Eldumiate Motorcars LLC, a licensed California used vehicle dealer, and the license number appears in the footer of every page. We follow California's dealer advertising rules, including showing the full VIN and the total price on every car we advertise.

We never change wire instructions by email. Before you send or receive money, we confirm account details with you by phone using the number on this website. If you ever get an email asking you to wire money somewhere new, call us before doing anything.

No. We use the information you submit only to respond to your request and complete your transaction, and we never sell or share it for advertising. You can read our Privacy Policy and submit a request on our Do Not Sell or Share page.
