We help clients anywhere in the continental U.S.—sorry, Alaska and Hawaii are a little too far. Between the distance, time zones, and unique inventory challenges, it’s tough to deliver the same smooth experience. If you're outside our service area, you can still get expert guidance through our online car buying course, The No BS Guide to Buying a Car.

We started this company specifically to help women feel confident and in control during the car buying process—but from day one, about half of our clients have been men. We work with anyone who wants a smarter, stress-free car buying experience—women, men, and non-binary folks included. If you're ready to outsmart the dealership games, we're here for you.

The Car Chick can help you find just about anything—cars, trucks, SUVs, hybrids, EVs, and even some specialty vehicles like cargo vans and exotics. (But sorry, no motorcycles, boats, or ATVs—those adventures are on you!)

Absolutely—and we're ridiculously picky about it. We run every used car through 10 different quality checks and dig through 30 pieces of data on the Carfax report to catch anything sketchy. If a car doesn’t meet our standards, it’s out—no lemons, no ticking time bombs, no expensive regrets.

Yes—but only if leasing is truly the right move for you. We’ll help you weigh the pros and cons based on your lifestyle and driving habits, not just chase a lower monthly payment that could cost you big later. If leasing makes sense, we’ll make sure you get a great deal on the actual price of the car—not just smoke and mirrors on the payments—and that you’re not set up to blow past your mileage limits.

Absolutely. Even if you think you know exactly what you want, we still do a full analysis to make sure it’s truly the right fit for your needs, lifestyle, and budget. Sometimes the “perfect car” on paper isn’t so perfect once you dig deeper—and we're here to make sure you don’t end up with regrets.

We work with trusted dealers who respect the process and won’t play games. Over the years, we’ve built strong relationships with dealerships that understand our clients expect honesty and fair treatment. It's all about creating a win-win—where you get the best deal without the usual drama, and the dealer gets a smooth, straightforward sale.

Generally, no. Private sellers often prefer not to be contacted by companies when selling their car, as many fear scams and unwanted solicitation. However, we have occasionally found the perfect car for a client that was listed for sale by owner. In those cases, we may need to make it a collaborative effort to ensure the seller feels comfortable with the transaction and everything runs smoothly.

While we don’t handle the logistics or legalities of selling a car privately, we can absolutely help you determine a fair price for your vehicle and offer advice on the process. If you want to make sure you’re doing it right (and safely), check out this podcast episode we did on how to sell your car privately.

It depends on how quickly you want to move and how easy it is to find the right vehicle. Our goal is always to get you into your perfect car in less than 30 days—unless you’re chasing a rainbow glitter-covered unicorn, in which case it might take a little longer (but trust us, it’ll be worth it).

The service is a flat fee, paid directly by you—not buried in the price of the car or based on a percentage commission. Our job is to get you the best deal possible, so our compensation should never be tied to the price of the car. Nothing hidden—just expert help with your best interests front and center.
