Used Car Dealer Inventory Website
I run a web design and marketing company in the US. I have a customer that needs a custom website to display his car inventory and accept credit applications. If I coded completely custom, it would take me far to long. I dont do much custom programming with joomla but I think it would be a better choice for my customer.
Here are the two website we are using as examples. We want a website similar to these websites

Here is a brief description of my project: I need a customized Joomla site for a small car dealer client. My client wants the ability to display his inventory on the site (not ecommerce, no online transactions/payments) Customers should be able to see details and request more information about each vehicle.
The customer uses a third party company to manage images and car details, this company then submits the information to many car sales sites like [login to view URL] . They will provide a csv file with all the car inventory and links to images. emailed to us daily or connect database via ftp. We should be able to import this inventory and add our own in the admin. When the same car is imported each day, the vehicles will be updated with any changes in the csv.
Vehicle Attributes (see [login to view URL] for examples):
• Year
• Make
• Model
• Exterior Color
• Interior Color
• Body Style (sedan, coupe, SUV, cross-over, minivan, etc)
• Country of Location (USA, Canada, Mexico, Senegal, Ghana, India, China, etc)
• Pictures (multiple pictures – no minimum, 9 maximum)
• Mileage
• Engine (4, 6, 8, 10 or 12 cylinder)
• Transmission (manual or automatic)
• Drive Type (front, rear or all wheel drive)
• Fuel Type (gasoline, diesel or hybrid)
• Doors (2, 4 or 6 doors)
• Installed options (see [login to view URL] for examples)
• Description/Comments
• Stock Number
Important Notes:
• Site administrator should have the ability to mark cars as “just added”, “price reduced to move fast” or “on sale” in the administrative backend. If marked as sale, it will show up on a separate page just for cars on sale.. the just added and price reduced text will show up on the car list view.
• There should an option for customers to contact the dealer for more information about each car.
• Please keep in mind that this site does not necessary have to use Joomla. I merely suggested Joomla because it can be easily customized in a short duration of time, and it has a great backend. If you have other means of fulfilling this project, please suggest them.
Required Forms:
• Request Information form for each vehicle.
• “Contact Us” general form. This should be on the “Contact Us” page with other contact addresses, phone and email (these will be supplied on project commencement).
• Credit application for each car
Project Delivery and Timeframes
• Completed solution will be tested thoroughly on the developer’s servers
• All source files should be delivered on completion (PSD, FLA, PHP, etc)
• Support will be need for at least 3 weeks after installation on client’s web host
• The duration for development is approximately three weeks
This site is needed as soon as possible....can you complete this in less than three weeks? The budget for this is $300. Please let me know if you have any questions. I hope you would deliver something that would exceed my expectations. I would also like some similar samples of your work. I am looking to build a great relationship with your team.
