Consignment
Consign Your Vehicle with Change Driven
A straightforward, fully managed way to sell your car, built around enthusiast-owned vehicles and a more personal approach.
We handle the details from start to finish, helping you navigate the market and maximize your car's potential.
A Better Way to Sell
Selling privately can be time-consuming and unpredictable. Nobody enjoys being bombarded with messages, dealing with no-shows, or navigating drawn-out negotiations.
Selling directly to a dealer is simple, but often leaves money on the table. Consignment offers a balanced approach.
What sets us apart is flexibility. Some cars perform best on public auction platforms. We know how to run those well and have sold more than 90 vehicles through Bring a Trailer over the years. Others are better suited for a quieter, more targeted sale.
We maintain an active network of buyers looking for special-interest cars, and in many cases, we're able to place a vehicle before it ever goes publicly to market.
Handled Properly, Start to Finish
As a licensed dealer, we manage title work and transaction details in accordance with applicable state requirements, helping reduce delays and ensuring everything is handled correctly.
We remain involved through delivery and beyond, providing a smoother experience for both buyer and seller.
Our Process
The details make the difference.
1. Inspection & Reconditioning
Once we receive your vehicle, we comb through it with a critical eye, looking for paint imperfections, dings, aging window tint or PPF, curb rash on wheels, and paint swirls or holograms. Inside, we evaluate everything from worn leather and peeling door panels to tired switches and other details that can influence a buyer's perception.
These final details can make a meaningful difference in a vehicle's presentation and perceived value. Too often, sellers leave that value on the table. Many cosmetic services are performed in-house and included in our fee at no additional charge. If more substantial mechanical or service work is needed, our on-site service bay allows us to address those needs before the car goes to market.
2. Detailing
Every vehicle receives a comprehensive detail before photography. Paint surfaces are decontaminated, followed by a foam bath, hand wash, and thorough interior cleaning. Our goal is to present each car at its best while accurately representing its condition.
3. Photography & Documentation
Every vehicle receives a professional, cohesive photo set designed to give prospective buyers a clear understanding of what they're considering, especially those shopping from out of town. We capture the interior and exterior in multiple lighting conditions, along with cold-start videos, walkaround videos, and detailed interior shots to give buyers confidence, even when purchasing sight unseen.
4. Listing & Marketing
We scan and organize available service records and build a carefully curated listing that tells the story of the car, highlights its strengths, and transparently documents its condition. Whether through a traditional listing on our website, syndicated across platforms such as Classic.com, Autotrader, and Elferspot, or an enthusiast-focused auction on Bring a Trailer, we position each vehicle to reach the right audience and maximize exposure.
5. Buyer Management & Closing
We handle incoming inquiries, buyer questions, showings, and the technical details that matter to enthusiasts. Once a buyer is secured, we coordinate the purchase agreement, payment, title paperwork, and delivery to make the transaction as straightforward as possible. Your title stays in your possession until the vehicle is sold, giving you added peace of mind throughout the process.
Experience & Expectations
We specialize in enthusiast, specialty, and domestic vehicles, from vintage to modern, collector-grade examples to well-maintained drivers. Our network, experience, and reputation allow us to strategically position each vehicle to reach the right buyers and work toward achieving its full market potential.
Whether you're consigning a single vehicle or an entire collection, we tailor our approach to the car and your goals.
How Long Does It Usually Take?
Historically, our average turnaround time from vehicle arrival to the transfer of funds has been approximately 25 days.
What If It Doesn't Sell?
If we're unable to sell your vehicle within the agreed terms, there is no fee due from you as the consignor.
What Our Clients Say
“I have worked with Brian and the Change Driven team for over three years and consider them to be the go-to experts for all things Porsche (sales, service, market intelligence, technical expertise, etc.). So, when it came time to sell my beloved 993, I considered no other option than consigning it with Change Driven. The process and outcome were outstanding!”
