Q&A
Q: What is this website about?
A: It’s a convenient platform for customers to compare pricing and promotions across different car brands.
Q: Where does the information come from?
A: Data is sourced from official car manufacturer websites and reflects offers specific to British Columbia.
Q: Are promotions and pricing the same across Canada?
A: No, they may vary by province and dealership.
Q: How can I verify the pricing?
A: Please contact your local dealership for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
Q: How often is the pricing updated?
A: Prices and promotions are updated at the beginning of each month.
Q: The interest rate I received from the dealership is different from what’s shown on the website. Why?
A: Interest rates are subject to credit approval and may vary based on individual financial profiles. Final rates are determined by the dealership.
Q: What is the best car or brand?
A: There is no single “best car.” The right choice depends on your budget, lifestyle, and comfort.
Q: Which cars hold their value best?
A: Resale value changes with market and technology trends. Focus on a car you like driving every day.
Q: Why don’t your payments match the ads I see, like “0%” or “$79/month”?
A: Many ads highlight only the lowest possible offer, which may not reflect real terms. At 404CAR, we keep it simple by using standard terms — 48-month lease (20,000 km/year) and 84-month finance, $0 down — so payments are fair and easy to compare.
Q: What trim level are your payments based on?
A: We start with the entry-level trim to show the lowest cost to get into a model. If you prefer more features, you can explore higher trims.
Q: What if standard terms aren’t available for a vehicle?
A: In that case, we show the closest available terms to keep the comparison as accurate and fair as possible.
Q: How do I know the final car price?
A: Online prices are for reference only and may exclude fees and taxes. Always confirm the out-the-door price with a dealership quote.
Q: How does car financing work in Canada?
A: Finance payments depend on interest rate, loan term, down payment, and trade-in value. Most car loans are open finance, so you can pay off anytime.
Q: How does car leasing work in Canada?
A: Lease payments are based on interest, residual, mileage, and deposit. At lease end, you can return, buy out, or trade in depending on the brand.
