See What Our Customers Say

What does it cost to have a professional automotive industry expert handle your new car purchase or lease? In procuring your new vehicle for you, we can’t promise to save everyone $4800 on their car or truck purchase or lease, but it is possible. We will save you hundreds if not thousands of dollars above our consulting fee when you buy or lease your vehicle using our services.

For example

You could buy the vehicle on your own for: $30,000
We procure your vehicle for: $27,200
You save: $2,800
Our fee: $500
Your net savings: $2,300

What did it cost you? Nothing. You saved $2,300.00

Working for you: Our advice is based upon what is best for you, not what is best for the car salesman or car dealer.

The following services are available:

  • We personally discuss with and advise you on the vehicle you want to buy or lease. We also advise you of the risks involved in leasing, risks that are not explicitly stated in a lease contract. (Salespeople and dealers are not required to inform you of this information.)
  • We research and advise you on the availability of the car you want to buy or lease, the amount you should reasonably pay, the amount you should receive for your trade, the amount of any other common charges, and your bottom line figure or the amount you will finance.  
  • We inform you of the current finance rates and the amount that your payment should be for your new car.
  • We analyze and discuss the options of 0% interest versus large rebates on new vehicles and which is best for you.
  • We discuss, analyze and advise you on your needs involving credit life and accident & health insurance on your finance contract (This is one of the dealers’ favorite added charges that increases their profit and thus increases the amount of your payment).
  • We discuss, analyze and advise on your need for extended warranties. (This is another of the dealers’ favorite added charges that increases your payment and their profit).
  • We will search for the vehicle you want, any make, any model.
  • We will negotiate the purchase of the vehicle.
  • We will review the price, the monthly payment, and all of the terms of the purchase agreement with you before you make a final decision.
  • We will arrange for the paperwork and delivery of your new car once you approve the agreement.

Pricing

We have the experience, knowledge and software to provide you with the true invoice pricing on new cars and the true wholesale and retail pricing on used cars.

These are the same figures the dealers use. We also provide a current listing of customer incentives and dealer incentives. Our software is updated every month.

Locating the vehicle

We have the resources to locate nearly any vehicle you want to buy, any make, any model. We are not limited to local dealers. We will find the new vehicle of your choice with the options you want!

Our Executive Car Buying Service:

Is your time too valuable to waste spending hours trying to buy a car?
You never have to leave your office or home to buy or lease a vehicle!

  • At your convenience, we will come to your office or home for the initial consultation.
  • We will locate and inspect the vehicle of your choosing.
  • We will take your trade to the dealer and negotiate the entire purchase of your new car.
  • We will report to you the price, monthly payment, and terms of the purchase agreement.

Our Fees

Everyone has different needs when buying or leasing a new or used car. For this reason we offer a variety of services and customize them to our client’s specific needs.

Remember….

  • We charge a flat fee for our services regardless of the price of the car.
  • Our fee is not commission structured. If you have an advisor who says he is working for you but is being paid by the car dealer, who is he really working for?
  • Our fee can be rolled into the amount you finance. No out of pocket expense!

Our plans start at $250. Your Smarter Car Buyer consultant will discuss the various plans with you during your free initial consultation.
