Carfax

Shopping for a Used Car? — Find out how much the car is really worth with every report.

Why it worked

The video leverages a common, relatable scenario of impulse car buying and the risk involved, creating suspense and engagement. The relatable dialogue and the eventual positive outcome of finding the desired car contribute to its shareability.

Summary

Two individuals drove three hours from Delaware to a car dealership without confirming car availability. They were able to test drive the car and discuss its features and value, ultimately deciding to proceed with the purchase after confirming a Carfax report was available on the dealership's website.

Structure

1Customers arrive from Delaware without confirming car availability.
2The car is test-driven and discussed.
3The value and features of the car are assessed.
4The availability of a Carfax report is confirmed.

Original caption

They drove three hours without calling or confirming the car was still available. Luckily it was, so after the test drive I had to do a little slick talking. Was the “you found your keys” line smooth, or was I reaching? #carsales #sales #cardealer #dealership #pov

Product placement

Carfax: ACTS - provides vehicle history reports. Removing it would mean the customer can't verify the car's history. It is a substrate for the car dealership. The video mentions "Carfax for this one, my website okay".
