Used Cars for Sale by Owner in New Jersey

Finding a private-party car in New Jersey shouldn't mean digging through sketchy listings. Torque puts New Jersey's for-sale-by-owner listings in one place, with VIN and title status required on every one.

Buying directly from owners in New Jersey

Private party sales often provide the best value, but they come with risks. Whether you're in the city or the suburbs, buying directly from an owner in New Jersey means no dealer markup and no hidden lot fees.

Torque helps you buy safely by requiring a VIN on every listing. This means you can run your own vehicle history report before you ever message the seller. We also require sellers to declare the title status upfront, so you aren't surprised when you meet up.

Safe meetups and payments

When meeting up in New Jersey, always choose a busy, public location with surveillance cameras, such as a large bank parking lot or a busy shopping center. Never meet at someone's house or a secluded area.

For payment, stick to secure methods. Cashier's checks verified at the issuing bank or cash exchanged securely at a bank branch are the safest ways to complete a private-party vehicle transaction.

Zero fees to browse, zero fees to list.

Torque is completely free for both buyers and sellers. We don't take a commission, and we don't charge listing fees.
