The Car Dealer

Laid off. A little savings, an empty garage and a family to support.

The Car Dealer is a shopkeeping sim about running your own used-car dealership from scratch. Buy, haggle, repair, sell at a profit — and climb from a Street Garage to a Premium Showroom.Look before you buy

Every car has a past: accident records, replaced parts, repainted panels, a tired engine. Sellers won't tell you everything — some will flat-out lie. Send the car for inspection, but remember: an inspection can be wrong; the car itself never changes. A cheap inspection misreads, and the damage you missed comes back after the sale as a complaint and a compensation claim.You can bend the truth too

You declare the car's condition to the buyer. You can make it look better than it is — never worse. The bill comes in two ways: a buyer who knows cars catches you on the spot, or a complaint lands on your desk days after the sale.Every customer haggles differently

Customers walk in with their own stories — to buy, to sell or to trade in. Some are in a hurry, some are stubborn, some walk out over one wrong number. Push their patience too far and they're gone.Four dealerships, one way up

Street Garage → Neighbourhood Dealership → City Dealership → Premium Showroom. Every tier means pricier cars, more customers and higher rent. There's no moving back down — and paying the rent is on you.145 car models

Every morning the newspaper reports on the market: electric demand surges, diesel crashes, a segment falls out of favour. Seasons shift demand. Reading what a story really means for prices takes expertise — hire a Field Researcher or learn it yourself.Stock burns money

A car that doesn't sell costs you parking and insurance every day. Rent runs on your dealership's own schedule. If your balance goes negative you have 3 days to recover — after that, bankruptcy.Three difficulty levels

Very Easy to learn the mechanics, Easy for a balanced start, Normal if you want to keep track of everything — buy without an inspection there and you'll get burned.

A dealership's profit isn't in the car in the window. It's in the price you paid for it.
