I was just browsing around the Purecars website and noticed there are a decent number of dealers who are "Purecar" certified. Is there anyone on DealerRefresh using it? If so, what do you think?

We just started providing service on three websites offering the pure cars reporting, and I am very impressed with how it helps move the visitor/prospect to value and away from price. Below is a link to the dealer group that has the pure cars reports on all of their pre-owned vehicles.

Wow - these guys need massive help. Their inventory details pages are throwing up server errors. Too many pages open in new windows, and I can go on and on and on. I highly advise they get on the horn with their site host (eCustomizing: Leader in Automotive Dealership Consulting, Websites, CRM, ILM Technologies) immediately!

I really like the very strong call to action on the VDP: Herb Connolly : Used 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid 4WD 4dr near Boston, MA in Natick / Framingham, MA (see top right)

Conceptually this looks very interesting but isn't this kind of a competitor to vAuto's RealDeal? I'd be interested in hearing more about this...

PureCars display reminds me of TrueCar.com. The boring and flat AutoTrader, Cars.com classified shopping system has been UNCHANGED for a decade. Somewhere out there right now, a game-changer is out there burning the midnight oil. It's just a matter of time.
Like I mentioned in the CarGurus column, Batten down the hatches ya'll, change is a comin'. CarGurus.com fell short because it's revenue model limits it to select "pay-per-lead" inventory sources. It wont be long.

Alex, I TOTALLY forgot about this thread. I just signed on with PureCars last week after sitting down with the founder and going over the product.
The initial response from the dealers has been positive. As time moves forward, I'll report back.

✨ AI Highlights
Dealers discuss PureCars, a vehicle reporting and merchandising tool that competes with solutions like vAuto's RealDeal and TrueCar, with one vendor praising its ability to shift focus from price to value while others note technical issues with implementation. The thread reveals mixed opinions: some see potential in PureCars' approach versus the stagnant classified model of AutoTrader/Cars.com, while skepticism exists about whether it will truly disrupt the market given limitations of similar competitors like CarGurus. A dealer who recently signed on with PureCars commits to reporting back on real-world results.
