How is CarsDirect.com Different from Other Online Car-Buying Services?

CarsDirect.com is the only online car-buying service to provide instant, upfront pricing on all of the models we sell. And we sell nearly every make and model available in the U.S.

Dealer or no dealer - it's up to you

When you submit an inquiry about a vehicle, most online car-buying services automatically pass your information on to a dealer. The dealer will then contact you to negotiate a price for your chosen vehicle, or try to sell you on a different vehicle.

At CarsDirect, we give you the option of working exclusively with one of our Vehicle Specialists, or being matched with a member of our authorized dealer network (in most regions). Either way, we guarantee VIP service. To learn more about the process, see how it works.

Instant, no-haggle pricing

Of the few other online car-buying services who do offer haggle-free pricing, most require that you provide your contact information first, then wait for a dealer to contact you with a price. At CarsDirect.com, you need not wait to be contacted. You can look up our no-haggle price on any vehicle, whenever you want. That's part of what makes us the most convenient and user-friendly online car-buying service.

Research before you buy

CarsDirect.com makes online car-buying easy because we provide all the tools necessary to make a well informed decision. In addition to our instant, no-haggle prices, we feature a complete Research Center, where you'll find specifications, photos, reviews and comparisons for all of the cars and trucks we sell. So in addition to being the premier online car-buying service, CarsDirect.com is a great destination for automotive research, as well.
