Frequently Asked Questions for WFU Students and Staff
Do you offer financing options for college students with little or no credit history?
We work with many lenders who have programs tailored for first-time buyers and individuals with limited credit history. While financing is subject to credit approval, our finance team is skilled at exploring all available options to find a suitable plan. We recommend starting by completing our online credit application to see what possibilities may be available for you.
What documents should I bring to the dealership to buy a car?
To help streamline the process, please bring a valid U.S. driver's license, proof of current auto insurance, proof of income (such as recent pay stubs), and proof of residence (like a utility bill or lease agreement). If you are a student, bringing your student ID and information about any student loans or grants can also be helpful for certain finance programs.
Are all of your used vehicles inspected before being sold?
Yes, every vehicle we offer for sale undergoes a thorough multi-point inspection process by our qualified technicians. We check major mechanical systems, safety features, and cosmetic condition to ensure the vehicle meets our high standards for quality and reliability. You can purchase with confidence knowing your car has been carefully vetted by our team.
Can I trade in my current car, even if I still owe money on it?
Absolutely. We accept trade-ins in a wide variety of conditions, including those with an outstanding loan balance. In many cases, we can incorporate the remaining balance into the financing for your next vehicle. You can get an initial estimate of your vehicle's worth by using our online trade-in appraisal tool before you even visit the dealership.
