Dream Cars at Dream Prices with no Hassle
NEW VEHICLE BUYING SERVICE How valuable is your time? Aren't you sick of dealing with auto sales people? My Car Guy does all the research, searching, and negotiations. You get a hassle-free deal on a new car - usually at dealer invoice, plus or minus $500, no matter where you live. A flat fee of $600 is charged for our services, so we have no incentive to push you toward a higher priced vehicle. My Car Guy deals directly with fleet managers, general managers, or sales managers - people who are compensated by salary and a bonus based upon unit volume.
If we can t save you a significant amount over what you could likely negotiate on your own, our flat fee is lowered. All aspects of the new car transaction are fully disclosed: you see the dealer's invoice before the transaction is finalized. Be aware of other brokers who offer a similar service at a lower flat rate: most of the time they are buying the vehicle from a dealer, and then selling itto you. You have no way of knowing what that broker's total compensation is. New or used vehicles can be possibly leased through Kroll Green Leasing which offers a few different ways to lease or lease-to-own. Just click on the logo below to print out the lease the lease application and fax it to Kroll Green Leasing. It's best to follow up with a phone call to make sure they received it.
USED VEHICLE BUYING SERVICE Used vehicles can be purchased through an extensive search, sometimes aided by an informal network of about 200 independent brokers all over the country. Used car managers and general manages will typically tell us how long they have had a vehicle and what they paid for it. Their primary concern is inventory control and turnover, so typically they will give us prices that are slightly above cost, or if it's an aged unit the price could even be below their cost. Dealer auctions and dealer online exchanges are another possiblesource. Vehicles found in a search are put onto a spread sheet andemailed to customers. Prices are typically below Kelley Blue Book Wholeale - sometimes 10% or more below. How much below wholesale can only be found by completing a search. Used vehicles have dealer mark-ups that can be 2 to 2.5 times that of new cars, so the potential savings can be substantial. The process is far more involved than on a new vehicle, so our flat fee is $900, of which $200 is up front in the form of a non-refundable retainer. If we determine that we haven't saved you a significant sum, our fee is lowered. Financing (OAC) can be arranged by calling Traci Hollanderat 415-575-3775; approval can be as quick as a few hours. We can also help determine the value of a car you may want to sellor donate, and possibly assist in the marketing of that car. USED VEHICLE INVENTORY We have a warehouse/office about one mile south of the San Francisco Giants' baseball park. Easy on/off access to highways 280 and 101, and minutes from downtown and SFO airport. Because we have low overhead (no fancy marble floors here!) we can inventory eight to ten high-quality, low mileage vehicles and offer them at or near wholesale prices. On cars purchased from our inventory we offer extended warranties ar our wholesale cost - which is about half what others charge. Financing (OAC) can be arranged by calling Traci Hollander at 415-575-3775; approval can be as quick as a few hours. Another option is a credit union where you work, or there are a number that can be found through an Internet search. CONSIGNMENT SERVICES One of the most difficult tasks for vehicle owners is the selling of a vehicle they own. Trading a vehicle at a dealership on the purchase of a new or used vehicle can leave thousands of dollars on the table. It is important that the two transactions be kept entirely separate. At the very least we can give you an honest appraisal of what your vehicle is worth and what your expectations should be. We will consider assisting sellers of vehicles by taking on consignment a limited number of vehicles. My Car Guy has a substantial Internet presence and an extensive email contact list. A best-efforts consignment listing can be done in two ways: 1.Physically housing the vehicle in our warehouse. This would allow us to show your vehicle to potential buyers and to give it exposure at times at San Francisco restaurant valet parking areas and at auto enthusiasts' events. 2.You keep your vehicle but My Car Guy gives the appearance in Internet ads and on our Web site that your vehicle is at our warehouse. We would arrange for potential buyers to see the vehicle at our warehouse or at your location of choice. If the vehicle is kept at our warehouse there is a $200 per month flooring charge. Upon sale of the vehicle, My Car Guy is paid a fee of $900 plus 4% of the selling price (most consignment services charge 10% or more). We cover the expense of Internet advertising on AutoTrader.com and Cars.com, post an ad weekly on CraigsList.com, and list it in our Web site Inventory. Should you wish newspaper advertising that would be at your expense. Potential buyers are offered extended warranties at $100 over our wholesale cost, which is 40% to 50% lower than what other dealers would charge for the same thing. This is a significant plus to a buyer. EXTENDED WARRANTIES Extended Warranties (offically called Extended Service Contracts) sold by new and used car dealers have huge mark-ups and are one of their most profitable areas of business. My Car Guy has access to what is arguably the best policies offered anywhere. Bumper-to-bumper contracts are priced about 1/2 of that offered at most dealers because we mark them up only $100 above our wholesale cost on brokered vehicles. On vehicles sold from our inventory we offer warranties at our wholesale cost. We can also offer drive-train-only warranties that run 5 years and adds 100,000 miles to the current odometer reading - all for $850 to $950! TIRES AND WHEELS My Car Guy can save you a bunch, especially on wheels. Even at the major on-line retailers the mark-up on wheels is around 22% to 38%. We mark-up wheels $100 or 10%, whichever is greater, over our wholesale cost. BODY, PAINT, DETAILING, WHEEL AND UPHOLSTERY REPAIR My Car Guy has identified top vehicle service companies who will give our customers wholesale rates, which are generally less than 50% of retail. We can really help you prepare a vehicle for sale, or in restoring a vehicle to like-new condition.
