5. Instamotor<\/b><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re looking to haggle for a used car,\u00a0Instamotor<\/a> may be the app for you. It works similar to Craigslist or Facebook market, where sellers put up their cars to buyers directly instead of going through a dealership. Don\u2019t let the \u201cCraigslist\u201d feel fool you though, Instamotor does a through job at making sure the buyers are safe and getting exactly what they are expecting.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Cars.com<\/b><\/h3>\n

Like most of the apps on our list, Cars.com features extensive car reviews, vehicle feature descriptions, and nearby dealership info that can be really useful when looking for a new car. However, unlike the other apps, Cars.com lets you make price and feature comparisons while inside a car lot. This can help make sure you\u2019re getting the best deal from the dealership you are buying from.<\/span><\/p>\n

Edmunds<\/a> is well known for its in-depth breakdown of car reviews and facts that even included small details like how much it\u2019ll regularly cost to refuel and repair. You can even text their experts to get more info whenever you need. This is a great, time-tested resource.<\/span><\/p>\n
