Investing in a luxury vehicle like an INFINITI is a great choice, but what about when it comes time to sell? Not all vehicles retain their value, and how you treat your vehicle goes a long way in how much you can get for it during trade-in. To get the most out of your vehicle when it’s time to sell, follow these tips for retaining your car’s value. more Keep Up with Maintenance A well-maintained luxury vehicle will retain more of its value than a neglected one. Staying on top of oil changes, brake service, and more will go a long way in getting you the best trade-in. The good news is that maintenance is a no-brainer with INFINITI Premium Care, a prepaid maintenance package included with all new INFINITI models. You get the best service by an INFINITI dealer using only genuine INFINITI parts, all performed by factory-trained technicians. Track Maintenance Records To show a potential buyer that you’ve kept up with maintenance, it can help to keep detailed records of each time you service your vehicle. Whether you keep a notebook or take your vehicle to a dealership service department, keep note of each time your vehicle is serviced. Keep It Clean Along with maintenance, a car that retains its value is clean and well-kept. Regularly clean inside and outside, including vacuuming the carpet, wiping down the dash, and washing and waxing the outside helps things look good as new. Plus, a car that looks good sends the message to buyers that you put a lot of thought and effort into caring for the vehicle. You might consider protection products to keep things looking great between washes and to protect the interior surfaces.
