In a September 2026 5-star Google review, Nolan wrote: “From Trevor and Nick in sales to Ermin in Finance, the experience of buying a new car from BMW Arlington couldn’t have been more seamless, transparent, and considerate. I traded in an m3 for an x5 and right off the bat they made a competitive offer and a competitive deal on the trade in deal without too much back and forth and they were very thoughtful in helping coordinate my vehicle delivery/trade in pickup. This dealership doesn’t feel cold like others but instead feels like a well oiled machine with a lot of genuine and kind people on their team. From someone who has a very loyal connection with a local dealership in Maryland, I highly recommend BMW Arlington TX for anyone local and far.”
Nolan’s trade was an M3 toward an X5, and the review describes one visit rather than a policy.
How does a trade-in change the sales tax on your next car in Texas?
Texas sets the motor vehicle sales tax at 6.25%, and it applies to new and used vehicles bought from a licensed dealer. The Texas Comptroller’s 2026 Motor Vehicle Tax Guide says the tax is figured on the sales price less any trade-in allowance and dealer discounts, so a trade lowers the taxable amount.
The guide’s example is a $42,000 vehicle with a $15,000 trade-in, so the tax is figured on the price after the trade-in rather than on the full $42,000. For a vehicle with a gross weight of 11,000 pounds or less, the buyer pays the tax through the dealer. Ask for the tax line in writing before you sign.

Can I get a trade-in offer with only my license plate?
Yes. Start with your license plate, or enter a VIN or make and model instead. Our tool returns an instant offer from whichever you use.
