Car financing: the Chevrolet Nova

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no Chevrolet Nova for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the Chevrolet Nova, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

A buyer's checks

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Reading the spec sheet

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

What to expect from the Nova

As a compact car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.

Who the Nova suits

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Try before you buy

Try the Nova on your commute, then decide. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week with the Nova answers more than any brochure.

Running costs

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Choosing the right one

The years table on this page shows where the Nova changed. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Chevrolet Nova from us first.

Buying the Chevrolet Nova

Does CarmaCars sell the Chevrolet Nova?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Chevrolet Nova before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
