Skip it if you…

Our take on Car Trader Simulator
The dealership premise covers auctions, repairs, staffing, advertising, and customer negotiations rather than vehicle driving. The 27 campaign routes add choice variation, while random events and difficulty settings shape how the business develops.
What is Car Trader Simulator?
Car Trader Simulator places the player in charge of an American car dealership.
The campaign has 27 possible paths shaped by player choices, including responsible trading and criminal options such as deceptive repairs or vehicle theft. Players buy vehicles through internet auctions, negotiate bids, repair cars, advertise, hire staff, and sell directly to customers while managing reputation. Employees vary in experience, specialization, and employment cost, and their travel and repair routes can be assigned across the map. Random events can affect the business during the campaign. Three difficulty levels range from more guided play to a highest setting without hints. The game includes photographs of over 1000 real cars in different models, years, and color combinations.
