What are the best online resources for research about buying a car, specifically comparisons between models and pricing?

We're in the market for a minivan and I'm looking for an online resource to compare different models and get pricing information. When we bought our last car 5 years ago, I used a service where I paid about $10 for each model and got a detailed report about features and pricing. I can't remember what site I used for that. I've already looked at caranddriver.com and the freee area of consumerreports.com which were helpful but not exactly what I was looking for. I am willing to use a paid site but would welcome any free ones too.
Thanks

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Have a look at Edmunds.com and AutoTrader.com. Both have comprehensive reviews and videos as well as user reviews of new cars and used cars. They are both free.

One thing that I like about Edmunds.com is the ability to find dealers local to your area and get multiple quote from them. This way you have better understanding of pricing before you come in to the dealers.

Great answer by cp24, and I concur with his recommendation of Edmunds.com. Their pricing methodology has always been very accurate in my experience.

It might be worthwhile to subscribe to Consumer Reports so that you could get the online auto reports.

Check out www.consumerreports.org, www.kbb.com, www.edmunds.com, as well as the auto manufacturers websites.
