Why Us
A professional car negotiator in your corner.
Most people don't need help finding a car. They need help buying the car they already found — without overpaying.
Our Business Model
You Pay Us. The Dealership Doesn't.
We're an independent negotiation service. Our compensation is simple:
You pay us $300.
We do not earn commissions from dealerships for sending customers their way. We don't steer customers toward a dealership because it pays us more.
Our incentive is aligned with yours: get the best deal we reasonably can.
Independent
Not a dealership, broker, or lender.
No dealer commissions
We are never paid to steer you.
One flat fee
$300 upfront. No back-end cut of the deal.
Plain terms
What's guaranteed — and what isn't — in writing.
California Focus
Built for California Car Buyers.
We're a California-focused service with particular familiarity with the Southern California automotive market — one of the densest, most competitive dealer markets in the country.
Our founder is a Southern California local with hands-on experience negotiating vehicle purchases and understanding dealership pricing, tactics, and negotiation dynamics.
Local knowledge + negotiation experience + consumer advocacy.
We make no claims of secret dealer pricing, exclusive inventory, or guaranteed access to dealer discounts. What we offer is experience, research, and disciplined negotiation.

Out-the-Door Price
We Don't Just Negotiate the Sticker Price. We Negotiate the Deal.
The number that ultimately matters is the out-the-door price — not the advertised vehicle price, and definitely not the monthly payment.
A dealer could give someone $2,000 off the vehicle and then add $2,500 in unwanted products or fees. That's why we look at the entire transaction.
Where applicable, we may negotiate
- Vehicle selling price
- Dealer fees
- Dealer-installed accessories
- Add-ons
- Out-the-door price
- Trade-in value
- Manufacturer incentives
- Rebates
- Financing-related terms
Not every component of every deal is negotiable. What can be improved depends on the vehicle, the dealership, and the circumstances.

Transparency
You're Paying for the Negotiation. Not the Car.
The $300 fee is paid upfront and compensates us for our time, expertise, research, dealership communication, and negotiation.
We are providing a negotiation service. We are not selling you a vehicle, and we do not guarantee that you will ultimately purchase one.
After we negotiate a deal, you remain completely free to accept or reject it. The service was the negotiation itself.
After we negotiate, you may
- Decide you don't want the car
- Decide the final deal isn't right for you
- Fail to qualify for financing
- Have credit challenges
- Change your mind
- Have the vehicle sell before completing the transaction
- Decide to purchase a different vehicle
- Walk away for any other reason
That's okay. The decision is always yours.
