Many sites give you useful information about various automobiles. They then take your contact information and have a local dealer call you with a special price (sometimes, a good, "no-haggle" offer). A select few offer online pricing with discounts that vary by car popularity and region.

| CarsDirect.com |
8.5 | On-the-spot online pricing, which is rare for car shopping sites. Easy-to-use site, although you sometimes have to wait for the site to update/load itself. |
| AutoByTel.com | 8.0 | Originally, AutoByTel had a dealer contact you. Now, they are also gearing up to sell cars online directly. One of the nice features is that you are able to see all the cars in a given category at once. The 3-D virtual showroom is a nice touch, but a little difficult to use -- at least for now (also, there are certain system and software requirements). The site is a little slow. |
| Carpoint.com | 7.0 | A slick site by Microsoft -- but only has a dealer contact you. Carpoint has many features a car shopper might be looking for -- including 3-D, virtual, capabilities. |
| AutoWeb.com | 6.0 | Two dealers will contact you. Some good resources for car shoppers. |
| 4CarQuotes.com | 6.0 | A dealer will call you. |
