"Know your car
cost and drive a hard bargain "Negotiating the price of a new
car is war" "The best weapon you can bring to the table
is information, and the best information around is the price the
dealer pays for a vehicle"

"There's a conspiracy
of silence in Canada's retail car industry "Dealers who do
offer openness, clarity and consumer peace of mind will distinguish
themselves, cleansed of the public distrust that infects the retail
car industry" The establishment-shaking Internet may be exactly
the tool required to make Canadian car pricing public information.
"It's about time."
Robert Cribb, Toronto Star, Dec-17-1999
"Internet can
put people looking to buy a car into the driver's seat. "Often
confused with the invoice price, the dead cost is what the dealer
paid the factory after rebates, hold-backs and other manufacturers
incentives are returned to him."
Francois Shalom, Montreal Gazette,
Jan-29-2000
Carcostcanada provided
me with the information I needed to calculate a bottom line price
for the car I wanted with the options I wanted while giving the
dealer a reasonable profit. (Everyone has to make a living).
Janet Wood, a member quoted in Montreal
Gazette, Jan-29-2000
"The first Canadian
Internet company to offer a comprehensive list of Canadian dealers
cost-the true cost to dealers of vehicles-will be a huge success"
Dennis DesRosiers, Car -industry analyst,
quoted in Montreal Gazette, Jan-29-2000
"It's only a matter
of time before you can order a car over the Internet and have it
delivered to your door. "Wouldn't it be nice if you didn't
have to grid yourself for a life-and-death wrestle when you head
out to look for a new set of wheels."
Tracy LeMay, Financial Post, Feb-02-2000
