Start selling your car to BMW of Arlington with an online offer

Start with the online trade-in tool. Enter your license plate, VIN, or make and model to get an instant offer on your car.

The tool asks for one of three things: your license plate, your VIN, or your car’s make and model.

Once you have the offer, the next step is a visit. You can bring your car in when it suits your schedule, with or without an appointment.

What happens after you get an online offer from BMW of Arlington?

Our trade-in value is good for seven days or 250 miles. That gives you time to decide, and time to get the car to the dealership without rushing the drive.

You do not need an appointment to come in with a trade-in. You can bring the car in when you are ready, and our team will walk you through the next step.

What paperwork do you need to sell your car in Texas?

A Texas seller hands the buyer a properly signed title. The title must show the date of sale and the odometer reading. The seller also signs the Application for Texas Title and/or Registration, Form 130-U, with the sales price clearly shown (TxDMV, 2025).

Sellers can also file a Vehicle Transfer Notification within 30 days of the sale. Filing it protects the seller from responsibility for parking tickets and tolls the buyer later commits with the vehicle (TxDMV, 2025).

Gather the signed title, the Form 130-U, and the odometer reading before you come in.
