Our cars are pulled directly from the manufacturer, how else do we have such low prices?

With heavy dealership lot expense and overhead, they have no choice but to markup! With lower prices than virtually any dealership nationwide, Carboi will pass the savings right to you. Your Welcome.
The cars on carboi.com are our live inventory updated daily. Since we sell nationwide, you can expect a car you like to sell in a few days, if not in a few hours. Browse our inventory and give us a call or email us as soon as you have selected your car. If you don’t see what you like, contact us and we will help you in your search to find the perfect car for you as our inventory is updated.The good news is that we can find almost the same car for you by searching our database containing hundreds of vehicles still in manufacturers hands.
Our main goal is to stay as transparent as possible while ensuring complete customer satisfaction. While traditional dealerships will markup their prices $3000 to $5000 to stay afloat due to their overhead expenses, we believe in taking a small profit ($500-$700) and rather sell in quantity. This fee will support our day to day operations and keep us on our feet. Remember, our mission is to deliver your dream car at the lowest prices guaranteed.
We are different from the traditional dealership. Our dealership lot is more of a warehouse where we keep our cars. Since we don’t pay the high rent price to showcase cars on a major dealer row or staff salesperson to follow you around in a lot, we can pass on the savings directly to you. Rest assure that the cars we deliver to you are top-rated vehicles meticulously inspected by our professional mechanics.
We are an online dealership and take pride in providing you the lowest prices for cars in A+ condition. We don’t have a dealer lot like traditional dealerships and store our cars in warehouses nationwide or receive them directly from the manufacturer. Therefore, you will not be able to see the car until we deliver it to you, but rest assure that anything less than perfect will not pass our rigorous inspections. Also, you have the comfort of a 10-day money back guarantee test drive, can it get any better?
All our cars are still under manufacturer factory warranty. We can offer you extended service contracts if interested, to learn more please contact us at 855-966-6694.

We never ever sell salvage, lemon, or any cars with a major accident accident in the Carfax. We handpick our cars to make sure they are in perfect shape and notify you of the smallest point of concern in the Carfax.

We can reassure you that the car delivered to your door will exceed your expectations and we expect the same in your loyalty to your purchase. Our 10-day money back guarantee has you covered if there are any mechanical issues and we will try our best to fix it.

Car Condition Report

Remember the phrase "if it's not perfect, it's not Carboi"? We have access to off lease vehicles before anyone else can get their hands on them, so we make sure to pick only the best cars to list on our inventory. All cars have no accident, possess a clean title, handpicked and meticulously undergo our 260 point inspection = perfection. 

We only purchase cars under full manufacturer warranty and we will provide you with a full condition report of the vehicle. These reports are created by our expert mechanic and show mechanical, electrical as well as cosmetic (exterior and interior) condition of our vehicles. 

Our cars are inspected 3 times to ensure the quality of the vehicle is up to par with Carboi's stringent guidelines before they are delivered to you. To provide you with additional peace of mind, we will also include a 10-day money back guarantee.
  1. Let's start off by saying we strive for excellence. We select only the highest quality vehicles between 1000's of vehicles that are available to us from the manufacturer. our cars go through 3 rounds of very detailed and strict inspection:
    • By the manufacturer before its made available to us.
    • By our third party car experts before the car is picked up for you.
    • By us right before we pamper your new vehicle and deliver it to your door.

  2. This multi-level inspection ensures top quality of our vehicles. We will receive an inspection report of our vehicles which includes any mechanical, electrical or cosmetic issues, if the cars have damages, we would just avoid purchasing it. If we find out the vehicle has more damage than what's stated in the condition report, we would simply return it to the Manufacturer. We are very strict when it comes to our customers' safety and our sellers know it.

  3. All our cars come with remaining bumper-to-bumper manufacturer warranty which means you don't have anything to worry about. Our cars are Certified by our expert mechanics and are backed by manufacturer warranty.

  4. 10 day money back guarantee. If you become aware of any defect (which I believe this would almost never happen) after taking delivery of the vehicle, you can always take advantage of our 10 day money back guarantee. 
All our cars come with a clean title and a clean carfax! So you can rest assure that there will be no accident in the history. Any dings or dents down to an inch will be on your pre-sale inspection condition report that you receive prior to your purchase. We will also inspect the interior to make sure it's clean and is odor free. Plus we will take care of your vehicle before delivering it to your home or office and make sure it's in SHOWROOM condition and ready to meet you. 

What to expect in Cosmetic Section of your Condition Report: 

  • Exterior inspection: which will include any scratch or ding down to one inch, small scratches or door dings might be present, but we repair most small cosmetic flaws before the delivery date.
  • interior inspection: making sure everything functions inside and the interior is clean if there is any unusual wear and tear inside it will also be in the condition report.
  • Wheel Inspection: we will inspect the rims and take note of any curb rashes and include it in your report. Most these curb rashes can be fixed and we will fix them for you for free prior to delivery of the vehicle.


  • As always if there is any major flaw with the car you can always take advantage of our 10 day no question asked money back guarantee.
In addition to taking advantage of our 10 day money back guarantee, we can offer you a contract cancellation option. Call a Carboi expert today to learn more about Contract Cancellation Option at 855-966-6694
