This site is very misleading on what they do with the information you submit. You are TOLD it is a car quote and that 'your information will not be sold.' Therefore, the overall net impression is that you get car prices brokered by the site... Wrong!

You end up getting calls all day long from at least 5 dealers all trying to sell you. You don't really get pricing. You get people calling you and telling you to come into the showroom. It's a scam to grab your personal information so they can go sell your name to dealers that hound and call you for days. Do not use this site if you value your privacy. They are not clear and upfront about what they do with your information. 

Also, their claim that dealers need to make sales goals is false. There is actually a shortage of the cars I was interested in due to the earthquake in Japan. They don't have enough and will sell them regardless. So why are they promoting these cars as such?
