How Buying From PureSelect Auto Works

We've built our business on five core principles that guide everything we do:

  • Clean Titles Only – Every vehicle we sell has a clean title. No salvage, no rebuilt, no exceptions.
  • Transparent Pricing – The price you see is the price you pay. No surprises, no last-minute add-ons.
  • No Games – We respect your time and intelligence. Straightforward deals, honest answers, zero pressure.
  • Pre-Sale Verified Vehicles – Every car undergoes our comprehensive inspection before listing.
  • Smooth Mobile Delivery – We meet you at a safe location or partner bank for a secure, convenient transaction.

To complete your purchase, please bring the following documents:

  • Valid Government-Issued ID – Driver's license, state ID, or passport

  • Proof of Address – Utility bill, bank statement, or lease agreement (for bill of sale)
  • Method of Payment – Cash, cashier's check, wire transfer, or approved ACH bank transfer
