Cars.com Scraper

What Cars.com Scraper can do

• Two ways in. Build searches from makes, ZIP and filters, or paste cars.com search and vehicle URLs directly. Filter fields are ignored in URL mode, so pasted links are used exactly as given.
• 90+ fields per vehicle, including deal rating, price versus market explanation, price drop, monthly payment estimate and photo count.
• A normalized contract on every row. Price and currency, mileage and unit, dealer city, state and ZIP, ISO dates, and a NEW, USED or CERTIFIED condition, so you never parse a display string like "$2.6K" or "17,417 mi." yourself.
• Explicit detail status on every row. Every vehicle carries a detailLoaded / detailError pair, so you can tell an enriched row from a base row without guessing from null fields.
• Optional detail enrichment adds full specifications, the equipment list, seller type, price history with the original list price and days on market, ownership, title, accident and recall flags, and the dealer phone number.
• 11 sort orders and price, year, mileage and stock-type filters to narrow a search before you pay for results.
