Where is Silver Star Motors located?
We are located at 1920 W. Pioneer Pkwy. Arlington TX 76013. All vehicles are stored at our secure facility.
Where do we get our inventory?
We have many different sources for the cars and trucks we stock. Vehicles may be purchased at dealer sales, at off-lease sales, directly from large franchise dealers, from credit unions and banks. The vehicles we sell on eBay are usually late model (2002 and newer) and have good miles and may still be under a factory warranty. We resell cars with clean titles only, this means we never sell salvage, rebuilt, reconstructed, insurance claim, flood or other gray market vehicles unless specifically noted.
Do you have all titles on hand for your vehicles?
We do not always have titles on hand for vehicles that are placed for sale, titles may be in transit from banks, from other dealerships, from the state, and a host of other reasons for normal processing delays in title paperwork. We are a licensed and bonded dealer in Texas and guarantee clear titles on all vehicles that we sell. If having title on hand is of critical importance to you, please check to verify its disposition prior to contracting for sale.
What 'other' fees are there besides the purchase price?
The other fees include taxes, shipping and documentation charges. If you live in Texas, you must pay 6.25% of the sales price of the car as a tax to the state. All buyers are required to pay Texas Vehicle Inventory Tax (VIT) tax of 0.002365% of the purchase price. (The VIT Tax is based on the county in Texas where the dealership is located,Silver Star Motors is located in Tarrant county). There is a $195 dealer services fee for handling paperwork, filing titles, mailing and copying costs, these fees are fixed and is non negotiable.
