Vehicles we pay cash for
What we buy — and what we don't
What kinds of vehicles does Acme buy?
We buy cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and minivans from about 1985 to current model year, running or not, wrecked or whole, with or without a title in most Michigan cases. We buy insurance total losses, blown engines, bad transmissions, flood cars, rusted-out salt cars, and vehicles that failed inspection. We do not buy motorcycles, boats, RVs, or vehicles that have already had the engine, transmission, and catalytic converter removed.
