The “Virtual Test Drive” - Video for Buying or Selling Vehicles: The Next Logical Step

Remember when selling your used car consisted of going to the local hardware store and purchasing a for sale sign? Or parking your car in a busy area and hope for a phone call? Times have changed and now your options for selling are plentiful. In terms of exposure nothing is bigger or better than the Internet. Just think about the millions of people surfing the Internet all around the world - 24 hours a day! It would be like parking your car on the side of every highway with a billboard for sale sign, now that’s exposure! A new dilemma has been created with the advancement of the Internet and technology; viewers want to know and see more about the car. Websites with pictures of a used car is really advantageous to the buyer and seller for many reasons. Let’s look at the seller first. Pictures help disclose the truth about the condition of the vehicle, some of the features it has, and filters out pointless contacts from buyers. A buyer benefits from being able to determine which vehicles match up to their criteria therefore reducing their search time. For a seller not to assist the buyer with providing as much disclosure about the vehicle as possible just creates wasted time for both the buyer and seller of the vehicle. Video allows the buyer to experience a “virtual test drive” of the used vehicle. They see the exterior and interior with much better detail than a photo could provide. If a picture is worth a thousand words, how much is video worth? Millions? Have a mechanical convertible? Show how it works in the video. Showing the vehicle starting, the condition of the engine and then a short drive with video is the ultimate in an online shopping experience. Imagine shopping online and being able to see every detail of the vehicle right down to the sound of the engine before you even put your jacket on. “Virtual test-drives” for vehicles are here and the buyers and sellers are coming into a new era of buying and selling vehicles.
