CarMatch Auto Locators was
founded on the principal of providing good service at a great price. Our
primary source of cars is wholesale dealer auto auctions located in Central
Florida. We also deal directly with
banks and leasing companies. Most
cars are lease returns. Lease
returns are typically in very good condition because lease terms require
adherence to regular maintenance schedules and charges for excessive wear or
mileage. Many lease returns are
still covered by the balance of a factory bumper-to-bumper warranty. Other available cars are rental fleet vehicles, corporation
executive vehicles, excess auto dealer trade-ins and even new cars which are
either very hard to find (for example, MiniCoopers and new Ford Thunderbirds) or
from prior model years.
Central Florida is home to a number of auto auctions,
including the largest and highest quality one in the entire Southeast.
Dealers from all over the country routinely come to Central Florida to
buy used car inventory to sell at retail and to sell their own excess inventory.
Because we are dealers, we buy at “Black Book”
wholesale prices or less. The prices we can buy cars at are
typically thousands
of dollars less than what a retail customer can buy cars for. Ordinary dealers
have extensive inventory, expensive sales and administrative staff, high
building costs, big advertising budgets and tons of expenses. Those expenses
must be tacked on to the price of your car or they’d go out of business. Since
we have very little inventory and extremely low overhead, we can pass the
savings on to you!
The reason is simple, better selection, better prices and
the best quality of cars.
q
First, we talk to you about what kind of car will meet your needs.

Then we research what cars are within your budget.
We do this by determining the “black book” dealer wholesale prices on
various cars, and then comparing these prices to recent actual sales at local
wholesale dealer auctions.

We present you with the results, and if you are satisfied, you
hire us to act as your agent to locate your car and we agree on a maximum price
you will pay for a particular car with your specified options.
