Car Dealers in New Orleans, LA

Cash Cars, 5401 Prospect. Desmond Logan is the guy you wanna talk to.

Cargurus.com, autotrader.com or cars.com. Use those to find a car that meets your needs, wants and budget. Shopping based on “dealer” is a recipe for disaster.

I like zeck Ford

Idk what your budget is like, but I used Carvana and was super happy with the whole process!

We've had really good luck with used certified pre-owned cars (CPO) from Nissan. (As far as I know all the Nissan dealerships in town are owned by the same people.) https://www.prestigenissankc.com/ Edit: Looks like they don't have many in town right now... I guess you'll need to keep checking back.

I bought two cars using the cargurus website. It shows the price of the car in relationship to the blue book value so you can tell if you are getting a deal.

Country hill motors.

Budget?

I know CL is rough right now, but I would really suggest you keep trying. I'd also do what u/Y-U-Mad-Girl said and make a burner FB account. CL/FB and a trusted mechanic to inspect the vehicle will be cheaper and less stressful than buying from any of the budget dealerships around here

Create a fake facebook? That's what I did. Keep it legit sounding as to not scare off people. Don't use Bob Bobberson

I’ve bought & sold from CarMax. The no haggling Blue Book value is pretty straightforward & they usually have a pretty decent inventory.

I had a great experience with [https://craggmotors.com/](https://craggmotors.com/)

My last car we got from carvana...

I had a really good experience with Vantage Motors in Raytown a couple of years ago. Alas, when I got in touch with them last winter it did not go so well. I ended up going elsewhere. Looks like they're low on inventory right now. Last time I was shopping I ended up looking at a couple of different cars at a lot in Pleasant Hill called Allen Auto Sales. I didn't end up buying there, but they seemed to have some pretty decent prices on basic daily driver kind of cars.

Don’t buy from a dealer. Your best price and vehicle is always from a private seller. I use www.searchtempest.com to search Craigslist by geographic location from my zip code. It gives great results. Good luck car hunting and stay away from the used car salesmen.

Hi, it would help to know a little more about what you are looking for: New car, used car that is a couple of years old, older used car or something to get you from point a to point b. Definitely stay away from Killeen.

Little bit of a drive, but Eakin Kia in Killeen are seriously the best people. My husband's car crapped out on us right as my little girl got hit by a car and was in McLane's in ICU. Having to travel down there every day plus have kids here for school and all we needed to replace our car fast. I talked to a bunch of dealerships who all pulled typical bullshit time-wasting dealership crap, but Dennis Eakin Kia offered to bring cars to the hospital for me to test drive and when I finally did buy, I stressed to them that I needed to to not spend hours there. I was in and out in 30 minutes. They called a few months later to see how she (the girl, not the car) was doing.

No where in Waco, but I like Hertz Car Dealership of Irving (any of them are good though). They sell their cars after 35 k miles or one year, so they’re all super new, and they give you the lowest no-haggle price you can find. Usually below KKB. I got a 2015 Yaris in 2016 for around $8 k out the door.

Definitely not Greg May Honda. They fucked me on the number of miles the car had versus what it said in the title-almost a 1,000 mile difference. They took like 4 months getting my plates and other paperwork. Oh, and to top it all off their dickhead financing guy tried to sucker me into a 17% apr loan after the original financing we had already agreed to "fell through." I ended up getting a loan from my bank. Unfortunately, I was too young, ignorant, and excited about buying my first car to stand up for myself better but I take any opportunity I can to bad mouth them.

My uncle at Tracy’s auto sales can help you.

KP Motors on Franklin Ave

Go talk to Coach Ray at Allen Samuels on SH-6. He’s a great guy who will take care of you, he did us.

Not dealerships but here is where I shop: [cargurus.com](https://cargurus.com) [cars.com](https://cars.com)

Dont forget everything is negotiable. Pay no fees (except tax and title) and that's all. If they wont budge walk out and trust me they will not let you leave. With Covid going on you have the upper hand doing everything online. I personally use this site instead of walking cold to a dealer. [Car Gurus](https://www.cargurus.com/)

I personally had a GREAT experience with [Carvana](https://www.carvana.com). Found the car I wanted from a huge online inventory.... it was even priced a little under [Kelly Blue Book](https://www.kbb.com) fair market value. I was offered instant financing with zero money down and a decent/affordable interest rate (considering my less than fabulous credit) The car was delivered two days later via flatbed truck. It was exactly as advertised... I had 7 days or 400 miles to decide if I liked the car... and had the option of exchanging it twice (if necessary). Personally, I will never ever use a traditional car dealership again. Carvana was the best!

The most reliable dealership.... look for cars for sale by owner and pay a mechanic to check the car out with you before you buy it. I will never use, or recommend, a dealership. Ever.

Stay the fuck away from coral springs auto mall.

Just bought a car at Avis Car Sales in Pompano. There’s no negotiations/games. The price they advertised is much lower than market value for that car and there’s no catch.

If you do get a used car make sure to look at the CARFAX and get the car inspected by your own mechanic. One time I went to the Hyundai dealer on 441 and I asked if a car had been in an accident, they said no, told them I wanted to see the CARFAX, guy comes back with a CARFAX that has an accident on it. I would def avoid the Hyundai dealer and Chevrolet dealer on 441 near wiles road.

I have purchased multiple vehicles from Off Lease Only (multiple locations). I have held on to cars from them for years and never had any issues out of the ordinary. They buy all their cars "off lease" so they most are 1-3 years old with low mileage. You can search their website for what you are looking for - they have lots of filters to narrow your search and carry all brands. They have Carfax for many of their vehicles, which you can review online. Some cars still have warranty left. They fully disclose and are easy to work with. No frills, no bullshit. I recommend going online to pick out a few cars you want to see in person (make sure they're at the same location) then go in person to test drive and finish the deal. Not sure about their current COVID procedures though, you might need an appointment or something.

just figure out a make model and year you want then send emails to like 20 dealers saying "i want this make model year, the lowest price dealership gets my sale." then you take the lowest ~3 and email the rest "dealership X offered $yyyyy --- can you beat this?" and keep doing that until they all drop out, and then you have the lowest price.

Honest? You must be joking. Car dealerships in itself is a theft ring. We don't call it stealership for no reason. Put S.FL on top of that, it's best of the best. To be honest, it's all about your negotiating skill. Are you good at it? If not, pay a little more at those no negotiating places like Carvanan/Offleaseonly and leave out the hassle. If you know what you're doing and can haggle, you can get a better deal than the places I've mentioned. To point you in a direction, Miami Car Credit....I have never bought a car from them before but have a few friends that got a good deal from them. Like I said, are you good with negotiating?

Honest car dealer - hahahahaha. You will never get value at a used car dealer. They know how to conceal defects temporarily. If the price is good, something is wrong. If you want a decent used car at a good price, find one for sale on Craigslist, eBay, Facebook market, or cars.com. Buy only from the original owner and see the car at their house. Look around ... Do they keep the yard nice? If so, they probably changed the oil. Take a mechanic friend if you have one, and subscribe to carfox so you can run the vin to check against and wrecks that discharged the airbags. This is the only way to find a value price on a decent car.

I think they’re all pretty much the same. It’s the end of the month so maybe you can find a deal. FWIW I found better deals in Tampa. I rented a car and drove up there a few years back.

I think it's up to the dealership. But with prime the way they are I could see them not giving it

It's up to the dealer, but seeing how things are now, second best would be asking for no markup but no discount for the rebate too.

My suggestion is to expand your search. I couldn't get any of the SD dealers to negotiate on the markup last year, so we ended up getting one in Costa Mesa where they at least cut the markup in half. Use the spreadsheet found elsewhere in the subreddit to see which dealers are getting Primes and also check [cargurus.com](https://cargurus.com) or [cars.com](https://cars.com) (cargurus seemed better for this area). Try checking out Temecula, I think I've seen some people getting better deals up there.

I doubt it. The leasing company will keep the credit. In March 2018 I was not able to get GM to pass the $7500 credit to me. Resulting in my bolt lease to be $350 a month! Previously 2014 Fiat 500 e and 2015 VW eGolf I got $7500 built into the lease.

Just as a side, you can lease a Bolt dirt cheap these days and if a Costco member get another $3 k off this month. As far as I know Toyota is not rolling the $7500 into the lease on Primes and only subsidizes the money factor to near zero which doesn’t save you that much

I bought at Toyota of Escondido a few weeks ago. The only markup they had was for the security system. That was essentially their markup. I don’t know if it’s the dealership not doing the markup or the guy I worked with. Try Shawn Skinner (internet sales manager) and see what he can do for you. They will do the $1500 rebate at point of sale. So that at least covers the security system markup. Then you have the $1000 clean vehicle rebate. There’s a special code for military to use when applying for this rebate if you have an out of state license. Source: also military family. Edit: I can’t remember the specifics on the rebates for leases. Sorry.

Check out Turo.com

Does it have to be a lease? Can you do long term rental?

Check out the app *Fair* http://www.nydailynews.com/autos/street-smarts/what-is-fair-app-leasing-used-cars-by-payment-article-1.3489469

luxrentalsla.com, you can just rent a car, rather than leasing and having your credit checked. They give great deals on monthly car rentals. They literally can get any car, they also have a sister company which does their leasing, if you still want to go that route. Tell them George sent you and they will take care of you.

If I were to buy a used car, I'd look for big places with good track records and more customer protection, like Carmax or Carvana. Local used dealerships always give me extremely shitty experiences.

Define cheap - your budget is going to determine a lot. A dealer like Carmax is going to have quality vehicles, well curated, with a return window, warranty, etc. - but you won't find much there under $10K.

I've got a 2010 RAV4 for sale. $4 k, 161 k miles, solid little thing.

I have bought at least five cars over the years for myself or my kids from Peak Motors on US-321 in Hickory. They've all been fairy priced and great cars. A Corolla, Accord, Sentra, Outback, & CRV. They have a lot in Lincolnton as well.

One thing I will recommend is to still check out large dealerships as well. They may not have exactly whst you're looking for right that moment, but they can keep an eye out for when they go to the auctions. Beyond that, try to stay away from buy here pay here places. I'm not saying all are bad, but I have never heard anyone who had a stellar experience with one.

Use the cargurus website

Craigslist 100%. Dealers suck.

check for prices on cargurus. Then visit the dealerships for specific cars whjch have good deals and which you have shortlisted.

Rather than seek out a specific dealership I would follow these steps: * Search autotrader.com or cargurus.com for a historically reliable model in your price range. Such as a Corolla, Camry, Prius, Civic, Accord, CR-V, Fit, or Mazda 3. You could pick up a copy of Consumer Reports that focuses on used cars to help with research. * Test drive it * Before buying the car, take it to a trusted mechanic in your area (not the dealership) for a "pre-purchase inspection." I would expect this to cost less than $100.

Best place for used car? Friend or family that will give you a good deal on a car that you’ve ridden in and know won’t give you any problems. I wouldnt trust craigslist, like someone else said; sure there’s a diamond in the rough in there somewhere, but why wouldn’t that person also list it for sale on a more reputable and auto-specific site? I would definitely check all the big websites - cars, cargurus, edmunds, autotrader. they’ll have the most inventory listed for easy browsing. If you’re looking for some kind of guaranty or warranty or return policy, I would stick to more mainstream/corporate dealers, not the small time local ones where nearly everything is sold “as is”. There are some bigger used car dealers in the area (Adams is a big one I drive by daily, never been tho) which may not have listings on those sites. Price is relative, cheap for you may not be cheap for me., but To save a little money, sometimes it can pay to find a car that’s sold outside of Charlotte, in a neighboring county. Never feel pressured by salesman, if you feel weird, just walk away and tell them you’ll come back later I’ll tell you, it’s hard to just “buy a car” and get something good if you don’t know what you want. If you’re just looking for any old car that runs, go to a lot and just pick one. But you may find your online search goes a lot more efficiently if you have a general idea - like “an American 2 row suv” or “The best quality Honda Accord sedan I can find for $Xxx”, will help you trim down your likely hundreds/thousands of search results.

Will be selling mine in the next few weeks. $1000

I got my last one from https://www.cargurus.com/ Saves you the hassle of dealing with people trying to sell you whatever they have. Besides, online you are able to look at all places at once, go in and finish the deal.

Facebook marketplace

Hello, I work at Toyota of Denton, we are one of the only places still open right now, but due to current regulations we are operating through appointment only. You can however always take a look here [https://www.toyotaofdenton.com/our-used-vehicles-denton-tx.html?st=Price+asc&q=&pn=100](https://www.toyotaofdenton.com/our-used-vehicles-denton-tx.html?st=Price+asc&q=&pn=100) to see our online used inventory that updates everyday. Let me know if you see anything you like.

I'd strongly recommend that you don't rely on a particular dealership. Figure out what make/model/years/kms youre looking for and use autotrader.ca to see everyone's inventory. Compare offers across all of the different dealerships to make sure you're getting a good price, and use competitors' offerings during the negotiation process.

no matter where you look at a used car have your own mechanic do a thorough check before buying ( I learned this one), if you go with JP, make sure you get a super thorough check

where did all 25 comments go? I only see 4???

Don't be afraid to call dealerships for specific brands and ask if they've had anything traded in recently. That's how I got my first car. Bought a 1999 Toyota Tercel from the Mazda dealership on Walker's Line, way back in 2005. Got a really good deal for it as well.

It is a hard time for buying new car but used one.. Oh lord. We have been fulled too. I did hear some people had good experience but overall, you wont pay as much for it as new one but you will end up paying in mechanic bills or it will just "die" too soon. Although, we purchased new car and had five recalls on it within year and half... Also, faulty turning signal. They repaired it but it is again acting up... Goid luck!

JP sells lemons, test drive with them though. They have the best selection. Then go somewhere else

Out of the way, but Haldimand motors are amazing people to deal with. Their service dept is full of good folks and they have a massive selection. If you're in the market for a good used BMW or something of that nature, CRS in Oakville carry cool vehicles.

Get a Pontiac sunfire

Check good cars only on Appleby, great service and great family owned business

I just spent the last few weeks looking for a used car for about $10 k. I found import connection on corporate drive to be honest and have good vehicles. I will have to agree with others on your initial dealer choice. It takes research. On the vehicle you are buying and where you are buying it.

Stay away from JP, the most reliable cars are Toyota buy your self a Toyota Corolla , Camry, Rav4 etc. as long as it is a Toyota you can't go wrong . Buy a copy of Consumer Reports magazine sold at Shoppers Drug Mart they have new and older cars listed for reliability etc. or watch Scotty kilmer or Chis Fix on Youtube about buying used cars . Regardless if you buy your car from a dealer or privately take it to your mechanic and have them check it out before purchasing . ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ jp

I agree with the autotrader suggestions. Download the app, use the custom filters. If you know what you want, you will have an easier time dealing with sales reps. I am not loyal to a particular dealership. JP does have a large selection, but you would be surprised at what you can find at some big dealerships too. My last 2 used purchases were from Leggat kia (a car from Quebec, with a full report) and Burlington Toyota. I knew what I wanted in a vehicle and they had exactly that for fantastic prices.

Try [cargurus.com](https://cargurus.com) there is a small icon in the top right hand corner once you enter the site to switch from USA to CDN for your local vehicle search from dealers more user friendly than autotrader and more informative. And try kijiji for private sales

City has a map with all the locations here: http://www.nola.gov/brake-tags/

You can get a car for $700 but it probably won't start and run. Get a bicycle.

If you buy a $700 car from a dealer you are buying a $200 car. Remember it will cost another $100+ just for license plates and title. Plus I guarantee that you will be spending $100 s just trying to keep the car on the road

Not a dealer, but I have a car for sale. 2004 Buick Regal, pretty good shape, and under 90 k miles. Used it throughout my masters here, and I would have kept it if I wasn’t moving after summer. 700 is definitely too low. If you’re interested, I’m looking for around $1100

I *sold* my cheap junker car here 2 years ago for $500. I bought a newer car and just wanted to get the old junker off my hands. It was a manual Nissan sentra that actually ran, but it was in bad condition, and I wouldn't have trusted it for anything more than going to get groceries (where, if it broke down, I wouldn't be stranded in the middle of nowhere). The radio didn't work, no a/c, a gaping hole in the trunk, cracked windshield, you had to grind the gears to get it in reverse, and it had crazy wheel hop whenever I accelerated on any kind of wet pavement that caused the whole car to veer to the right when accelerating. My point is (I guess), that it's possible to find something that would work, but definitely go through Craigslist or Facebook. I don't think there's a dealer alive that would've taken my Nissan and tried to sell it, and if there is, they would be a very disreputable dealer unless they sold it as "for parts only". Having said that, I know the Honda Dealer in Savoy has cars like that all the time, but, they are almost never lower than $1500.

Join a local car sales Facebook group

dealer fees are probably hundreds by themselves... ​ Have you considered two-wheelers?

Does that $700 include registration and insurance? That's going to be several hundred. Also a junker car is going to have a lot of maintenance issues and require frequent repairs. What about renting a decent car for the summer, that won't constantly be having problems?

I don't recommend Craigslist since I personally noticed a lot of "too good to be true" deals and online scammers. From my experience, a lot of international students sell their cars for a really good price, so I would start there. Facebook is the best to find those deals imo

Walker Acura, they were real cool I purchased my last two Acura's there.

Ray Brandt.....a current Regent

Northshore Toyota is the only dealer I would recommend
