The websites below provide the best car prices from local car dealers (for free). They will put you directly in touch with car dealers so you can agree on a good price through email before heading to the dealership.

You’ll want to reach as many car dealers as possible.  I suggest getting prices from 6-8 dealers for the best deal.  

Tip: To reach additional dealers, do more than one search using nearby zip codes.

Disclaimer:  If you request free car prices using these services I may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.  These are the same services I use myself when negotiating car deals for friends and family.
