Where Diablo Lexus Owners Transact Privately

Yes. Many buyers in our network are comfortable working with active liens. The mechanics: the buyer wires the lender the 10-day payoff directly at closing and wires the balance to you. The seller and buyer agree on the mechanics; we facilitate the match but are not a party to the payment.

Direct seller-to-buyer payment. Most Lexus transactions in our network close via domestic wire transfer from the buyer to the seller. Some buyers prefer third-party escrow (Escrow.com or similar) for buyer-confidence reasons. Cashier's checks are accepted on smaller transactions. The exact method is between you and the buyer.

We charge a match-making commission to both the seller and the buyer at the close of the transaction. The exact amount and the split are documented in a short commission disclosure both parties sign before any introduction. There are no upfront listing fees and no payment until the transaction closes between the introduced parties.

You and the buyer agree on the final price directly. We provide market context: Hagerty Price Guide value for your year and model, recent comparable BaT and auction sales, and what buyers in our network have paid for similar cars recently. The number is between you and the buyer.

Dealer trade-ins on Lexus cars routinely come in 30 to 45 percent below retail. Our matched-buyer transactions land closer to retail (typically 5 to 12 percent below) because the buyer is buying for themselves or for retail listing, not for a wholesale auction. On a six-figure car the difference can be $30,000 to $60,000.

Transport is the buyer's responsibility. After we facilitate the match, the buyer arranges and pays for enclosed transport (or any other method they prefer) directly with their chosen carrier. Sellers do not pay transport. Fast Auto Exit does not coordinate or pay for transport because we are not a counterparty to the sale.
