How to sell my car

I think it is going to happen today or tomorrow,: selling my old car.

I already have title and bill-of-sale ready.

Never done it before what else should I do ? what should I watch out for ?
are there any taxes involved ?

thanks

You will need to download (or go to the DMV) and get the form that shows who you are selling the car to and for how much. Now, depending on what you want to do, you can show as much or as little as you want for the selling price. The more you put, the more taxes the buyer pays, but its up to you to put the full amount. When you get your money, sign your title on the back and the form and you're all set. I just sold my CL last week, and its pretty simple.

Yep, it's pretty easy.

Advertise car. Find a buyer. Buyer gives you money ($$ or bank check). You sign over the title. In some cases (depends on the state), you might be required to fill out a bill of sale.

I've got a bill of sale template on my home computer if you need one... It's just a simple document that states that you (the seller) have agreed to sell the car (make/model/vin) to the buyer for a certian amount. It usually has the phrase "AS IS, WHERE IS" on it...

Most times a bill of sale isn't needed. The title is the important thing as far as the registry is concerned.

If you have any questions, your insurance agent or the helpful people down at the registry can assist you

Check your state's DMV website if available.
