How HooptyFinder Works

Car Buying Without the Chaos.

01

Tell Us What You Want

Choose a specific vehicle or tell us your needs, budget and preferences.

02

We Search

We identify matching new and CPO vehicles through participating dealers and market sources.

03

Dealers Compete for Your Business

Qualified dealers can submit real transaction offers based on your request.

04

We Work the Deal

We analyze pricing, incentives, fees, financing, leasing and your trade.

05

You Choose

You review the best-fit options in your HooptyFinder Deal Desk and decide which transaction works for you.

The HooptyFinder Dealer Firewall

Dealers compete. Your phone stays quiet.

We sit between you and the dealers. They send offers to us, we put them in your Deal Desk, and your contact details stay with us until you choose a dealer.

Your info stays private

Dealers see your request, not your phone number or email.

No spam storm

No flood of sales calls from every dealer in the state.

You choose who to meet

Your contact details go only to the dealer you pick, when you pick them.

Questions people ask first

HooptyFinder services may vary by state based on regulatory requirements, and dealer participation varies by market. Vehicle purchase or lease is completed with the participating dealership, not HooptyFinder.
