Year, make, model, mileage, and where it sits. A VIN speeds things up but is not required to start, and the pickup address tells us which local run the car joins.

Year, make, model, mileage, and where it sits. A VIN speeds things up but is not required to start, and the pickup address tells us which local run the car joins.
Wheels, battery, key, whether it starts and drives, the catalytic converter, and the rest — the same checklist our buyer verifies in person, so the offer is built on the car you actually have.
We review every application by hand and send one offer, guaranteed for 7 days when the car matches its description. Accept it and pickup is free anywhere in San Diego County.
Sedans, SUVs, and vans from any maker, clean or with fixable issues.
Battery, glass, panels, and exterior damage from the 12-point checklist — each priced in plainly.
Pickups are the top of our want list — working trucks, high-mileage trucks, Japanese trucks included.
Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and Subaru hold up in Southern California, and we price them that way.
We buy the cars the big guys reject — but we are not a junk buyer. These fall outside this buying program, and we would rather tell you now than waste your time:
The Q50 replaced the G37 sedan for 2014, initially with the 3.7L V6 and a hybrid version, on an updated rear-drive platform with available all-wheel drive and optional steer-by-wire Direct Adaptive Steering. For 2016 the range changed to a Mercedes-sourced 2.0L turbo four (dropped after 2019) and the 3.0L twin-turbo VR30 V6 in standard and 400-horsepower Red Sport forms. The Q50 was Infiniti's last sedan, ending after 2024.
Red Sport 400 cars draw a performance buyer in San Diego, while the volume is standard 3.0t and older 3.7 cars. State the engine exactly, and keep any turbocharger replacement records, since turbo history is the first question on the twin-turbo cars.
The 3.0L twin-turbo VR30 is documented for turbocharger failures, including wastegate and bearing issues that announce themselves with whistling, power loss, and oil in the intake. Replacing both turbos is a major job, and owners regularly sell rather than pay it on an older Q50.
Early VR30 cars had a known accessory belt alignment issue that can shred or throw the belt, sometimes damaging components as it goes, and Infiniti issued guidance and parts for it. A repeat belt failure on a sedan is a common final straw for owners.
The optional Direct Adaptive Steering system removes the mechanical steering connection in normal use and drew complaints for numb feel and occasional fault warnings needing dealer calibration. It is a system few independent shops touch, and that dealer dependence is a reason owners sell.
The dual-screen InTouch system is notorious for slow boot times, freezing, and backup camera delays, with control modules failing as the cars age. It does not strand the car, but living with a lagging flagship feature daily pushes many owners toward selling.
Every one of these is a condition answer on the form — report it and it is priced in from the start, never discovered at pickup.
Yes. Smog failure is one of the 12 condition answers, so the offer accounts for it up front. You do not need to pay for diagnosis, repairs, or a retest before pickup.
In most cases, yes — that is a known Q50 issue and it is priced into the offer from the condition answers you submit, not discovered at pickup. Describe it honestly and the offer already reflects it.
We buy Infiniti Q50 vehicles across the 2014-2024 range we commonly see, and we will look at older ones case by case. Condition matters more than the year — a high-mileage Q50 that starts, drives, and has a working key is exactly what the form is for.
Yes to both — name the lender or pick the title situation that matches yours in the form. Complicated paperwork is part of what we handle, and we explain the correct next step before scheduling.
Complete one vehicle intake, see your offer, and arrange free local pickup. No obligation, and no strangers coming to your door.
