Harvey car shopping — questions answered

How long does car shopping take in Harvey on your own?
The average Harvey buyer spends 14+ hours: research, comparing models, calling 4–6 dealers, scheduling test drives, walking the lot, and finally negotiating. Add 2–3 hours in the finance office on signing day. That's a part-time job for two weeks.
What does CarWhere do for Harvey car shoppers?
Everything between "I want a car" and "here are the keys." Vehicle sourcing, multi-dealer parallel negotiation, line-by-line fee audit, financing review, trade-in valuation, and delivery coordination. You hear from us when there's a quote to review. Otherwise we're handling it.
Can you help me figure out what to buy in Harvey?
Yes. The kickoff call covers your budget, must-have features, and how you'll use the car. We'll suggest 2–3 candidate models — and the per-trim pricing data tells us which versions are negotiable in Harvey right now (some trims have $5k of dealer markup, others have $5k of incentives).
How is this different from car shopping sites like CarGurus or AutoTrader?
Listing sites show you what dealers are asking. We show you what buyers actually paid — and we negotiate on your behalf. The difference between asking price and transaction price is usually $1,500–$4,000. Listing sites surface inventory; we close the deal.
Do I have to visit any dealers in Harvey?
Only if you want to test drive. Most clients skip the dealership entirely — we negotiate remotely, the dealer delivers the car, and signing happens at home or in a 30-minute paperwork-only stop.
