A simple Answer TO yOUr Question

Do I need to renew my registration before selling my car in NJ?

No, you are not required to renew your vehicle registration before selling it in New Jersey. You only need a clear title to transfer ownership. That said, if you plan to drive the car to a CarMax, dealer, or buyer's location, the vehicle must be legally drivable. Driving with an expired registration risks a traffic stop and fine.

My car was delivered right to my house - it’s just what I asked for - Tom went out of his way to locate the vehicle I was interested in. No haggling at the dealership - everything was taken care of and signing paperwork online was easy. I’m very happy with the process and efficiency of Vantage. Tom even brought toys and treats for my cats !! Thanks so much

I rarely write any reviews, I do find it necessary that I write one this time.I haven't purchased a new vehicle for quite some time. When I decided to move forward I dreaded the thought of having to go through the process of dealing with multiple dealerships, gathering quotes etc. and having to deal with pushy, non-transparent sales and finance people. Don't get me wrong, not all dealerships are that way or have staff looking to make big profit margins. If you've bought or leased any vehicle, you know those sales and finance guys are out there looking to make the absolute most profit possible. They get you going this way and that way. That's their business, to make money, I get that but the frustration, time and effort just isn't worth it to me.So, with that said, I was told by Brandon an employee of Vantage Auto Group to give them a try. Tommy C. was my contact and I have to say, from day one this was the best experience I had ever had with purchasing a new vehicle. No hassle, no frustration, no running back and forth to dealerships. Everything was taken care of with the utmost professionalism, transparency in order to satisfy the customer (Me). Aside from a minor setback which was corrected immediately, Tommy came through with the new truck that I was looking for. Hassle free, I received delivery even with a little parting gift which was very much appreciated.I am 100% satisfied and would highly recommend using Vantage Auto Group for your next lease or purchase of a new/used vehicle.Thanks again Tommy and All at Vantage Auto GroupA Happy customerAndy

Charlie is the man! We’re so happy with our experience. Charlie went above and beyond to make sure we got exactly what we wanted... a 2025 black on black stick Jeep that’s absolutely perfect. He put in the extra effort to get the deal done and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. You can tell he genuinely cares about his customers. Highly recommend Charlie and the team if you want someone who’ll really go to bat for you.

Working with Vantage was an awesome experience. They walked me through every step and made me feel like their top priority! They even returned my EZpass device that I had mistakenly left in my trade-in. I didn’t even know this industry existed prior to working with them, but I will never walk into a dealership to buy a car again, thanks to the amazing service Vantage provided. Highly recommend!
