Nonprofit, Independent, Unbiased
We are a nonprofit dedicated to informing and protecting consumers. We take no money from dealers and have no conflicts of interest.

Total Privacy
We don’t sell or give your personal information to dealers, so you’ll never be bombarded with phone calls or emails.
Here's how it works...

Tell us the make, model, and style of the car you're looking for and whether you want to purchase or lease.

Our expert staff contacts at least 5 dealers near you and gets them to give us their most competitive pricing.

We provide you an in-depth report that shows the price commitment and all fees for each dealer.

You decide which dealer you want to get the vehicle from and select and confirm color and options with the dealer.

You'll have the expert staff of our nonprofit consumer organization (founded in 1974) on your side throughout the process. You’ll walk away knowing that you got the best possible price on your new car, guaranteed. If you’re able to beat the lowest CarBargains price, we’ll refund you the service fee.
Save thousands on your new car
Our expert staff will reach out to collect bids from at least five dealers in your area - getting you the best deal possible on your next car.
