The comparisons made it easy My wife and I were having trouble deciding which car was the right one for us. CarsDirect was so helpful--their comparison tool made it really easy to decipher the differences between trims and option packages. We were torn between the Acura TLX and a Honda Accord--similar cars. After putting everything into the tool, it was easy to see that the TLX offered little extra value for the additional $5K. This plus the Accord had special financing-that sealed our choice.

This service is a joke! I spent a lot of time on carsdirect.com selecting cars and options I wanted. I got really great target prices. However, I received so many calls and emails from dealers asking what I wanted and giving me prices way above what carsdirect.com listed. I called carsdirect.com to complain and ask if they sent these companies the information I gave them. I was told that it was just a referral service and a price to try to negotiate for the cars. They did not give the dealers all the information I had given them. It was just a waste of my time! I could have just called the dealer and requested the internet sales and gotten more information and not wasted all that time.

BAIT AND SWITCH this company is a joke - I inquired regarding a refinance - I have received numerous calls regarding my pre-approval to purchase a new car??? this is a total violation of FTC lending rules / and it is highly illegal I tried calling them to ask them to remove me so I can stop the phone calls and the unauthorized inquiries on my credit report i ALSO ASKED FOR CONTACT TO THEIR LEGAL DEPARTMENT- i was sent numerous emails with the same information regarding financing a new car??? this company is in violation of Lending Laws

Want to lower your credit score? When you apply on cars direct they send your information out to dealers and allow them to run as many hard credit inquiries as they wish. Lowering your credit score. It happened to me. Peak kia in littleton, with the permission of cars direct did 3 hard credit inquiries on my credit report and lowered my credit score by around 30 points. And when I call them to complain they say they aren't responsible even though they are the ones giving your info away.

Avoid at all cost All they will do is take all of your financial information (including SS number) and then sell your info to car dealers. The car dealers will want massive down payments and offer 30-40 % interest loansharking. Avoid like the plague.
