Buying a car in Progress

If you are looking for a car to buy, the honest answer first: CarmaCars does not offer it, but a rental can help along the way. Tell us the car you are looking for and we will help where we can, and you can rent a similar car first. A rental of the same model for a week shows how it fits your commute, your parking and your family.

Try it for a week first

Renting the model first is a simple way to avoid buying the wrong car. A rental lets you judge fuel use for yourself, on your own routes. Many buyers rent the car they are considering for a weekend before they visit a dealer.

A buyer's checklist

Read the contract before you sign, and ask about every fee you do not understand. Compare the total cost, not only the monthly payment: interest, fees and insurance add up. Check the date on the tires and the condition of the brakes. A Safety Standards Certificate is needed in Ontario to register a used car you buy.

Before your next car arrives

Use a rental to try a different kind of car before you commit to one. Weekly and monthly rates make a rental a sensible bridge between cars. If the purchase falls through, you still have a car to drive.

Where CarmaCars works

To be clear: CarmaCars rents cars in the Toronto area, not in Progress. We do not deliver as far as Progress, about 2,279 km from our location in Toronto.

Our rentals start and end around Toronto; a test week has to begin there. If you are in the Toronto area before you shop, rent the model from us there. Write to us with the dates and the place, and we will give you a straight answer. Our prices are in Canadian dollars, before tax.
