The bottom line: Cars.com offers free private listings and reaches about 25 million monthly visitors. But depending on what you're selling, other platforms may get you a faster sale, more money, or a better fit for your car type.

The bottom line: Hemmings has been the classic car marketplace since 1954. But listing fees start at $99.95, and the platform works best for true collector cars worth $15,000 or more. Six alternatives cover different needs. Cars & Bids charges sellers nothing and now accepts pre-1981 classics. eBay Motors reaches 7.4 million monthly car shoppers with flat fees as low...

The bottom line: Driveo aims to beat CarMax and Carvana on price, and our tests show they usually do. But they still didn't offer the most on any of the three vehicles we tested in January 2026. We quoted seven alternatives for three clean title vehicles. CarGurus offered $24,500 for the Ford F-150, which was $1,950 more than Driveo's $22,550....

Last updated: April 14, 2026
The bottom line: CarGurus connects you with dealers who want to buy your car. But in our tests across three vehicles, alternatives sometimes matched or beat CarGurus, and one car got no CarGurus offer at all. We got quotes from seven alternatives in 2026.

Last updated: April 14, 2026
The bottom line: Peddle buys junk cars fast, and Trustpilot reviews back that up. But our 2026 tests show you can sometimes get more money elsewhere. We tested three damaged vehicles across four buyers. Most offers landed within $37 of each other. There was no clear winner across every vehicle. CashForCars offered $375 for a non-running 2007 Chevy Trailblazer, which...

CarMax offered the least on the F-150 and RAV4, and second to last on the Tesla Model 3. For the Tesla, Carvana offered $14,200 while CarMax offered $11,400....

The bottom line: eBay Motors gives you access to about 11 million car shoppers and lets you choose between auction or fixed-price listings. But listing fees start at $19, bids aren't legally binding, and you handle everything yourself. The seven alternatives below solve different problems.
