add ability to exclude brands and models from a search
I think a search feature that would be helpful when someone isn't searching for a make or model specifically but by option or make only, for example if you're looking for any 4x4 SUV but you know you don't want a Jeep product you can exclude that make.
or searching for any toyota suv except for the CH-R you could exclude it from the search.1 voteThat would be very helpful to have in the search filters. We're planning on adding multiple makes/model selection, this might be something that could be included alongside those. Keep an eye out for that feature in the future!
Cheers,

Ability to hold the CTRL button to select multiple options from the dropdown menus.
Currently when you select a color or other option from the dropdown menu the menu closes and you have to reopen it for each option you want to select. It would be much nicer & faster if we could hold the CTRL button down and the menus stay open so we can select multiple options quickly.

"No Accidents" Filter
It's very frustrating looking for a clean titled vehicle only to click on an option, scroll down, and see the dreaded "Accident or Damage Reported".
These vehicles should have a filter to be completely hidden. Many of the results are coming from cars.com, and this website has a very distinct and obvious section where damage is reported.
2 votesYeah, that could be annoying for sure. Most accidents don't result in a totalled car or branded title, so if you're trying to filter out any car that's had an accident, that's not currently possible. Unfortunately we don't currently have access to that information from most sources. (The carfax information that appears on the Cars.com detail pages isn't included in the feed they send us.) I'll certainly keep this request open though; maybe we can get that added in the future.
In the meantime, if there are common phrases you're noticing in the vehicle descriptions that note there has been accident damage, you could filter those out with negative keywords or key phrases, using a minus sign followed by the word or phrase, like -"accident damage". But as I said, the specific section you mentioned that's provided by Carfax doesn't appear to be part of the vehicle description that we…

Please Add "Made In" filter to search
I would like to see models there were made in Japan for example (VIN starting with J) and this can be easily achieved with a "Made In" filter.
Compare the starting letters of a VIN with the table in World manufacturer identifier and we can then search for cars that were manufactured in any country.
Thank you!

Add filter for towing capacity
It would be great to have a filter for towing capacity to compare between vehicles and see what's the best option for towing.
3 votesTricky as we don't get this info from most of our sources, and it can vary based on trim, packages, etc. Will leave this here to gauge interest though.

Add filters for max seating capacity
Please add a filter for number of people the cars seat. With different SUVs with a 3rd row is not always straight fwd if it seats 7 or 8 people.
3 votesWe don't get this from most of our sources either, but it may eventually be possible using a combination of analyzing descriptions, parsing VINs, etc.

Side by side comparison
A side by side comparison of behicles you pick. Mileage, $$$, year, key accesories, etc....
1 voteGreat idea, I'll pass this along to the team for consideration. Thanks for taking the time to send this to us!

Search by number of seatbelts!
Please please please add a feature to search for vehicle by number of seatbelts. There are a lot of SUVs that make models with an optional third row and it is incredibly tedious to look at each listing.

add the ability to filter out specific sellers.
My results are full of flood and totaled vehicles, even when I sort by clean title. The ability to blacklist sellers would be fantastic, since it's just the one seller. They're 43 miles from me, but all the big cities are around 100miles away, so I can't change distance.
1 voteWhile we don't have an explicit option to filter sellers, we do support negative keywords. Is the dealer's name in the body of the ad? If so, you could filter out any ads containing that word by putting it in the keywords prefaced by a minus sign, like
-dealername
Does that help?

Add incident/service record to listing
Add to the listing that the vehicle has complete and/or available incident/service records that would be filterable.
Could expand on the vehicle title filter, and could allow for a partnership with VIN lookup services.

Click the "Find a Hooptie" button and a random Hooptie shows up. Car must be over 15 years old and Tyler Hoovie has owned. At least something that is collectable. Car also must not be in mint or good condition.

Please add a Right Hand Drive (RHD) search option. RHD cars in the USA are cheap, great for export, but finding them takes an age!
Please add a Right Hand Drive (RHD) search option. RHD cars in the USA are cheap, great for export, but finding them takes an age!
1 voteHave you tried using the keywords field to search? I would think searching for either “right hand drive” or RHD would find them all. You can do that like this:
“right hand drive” | RHD

I currently have many saved searches, and would like to reorder them based on makes and models
1 voteGreat idea and would be a great addition to the site.

Add buttons to save vehicle to 'watch list', or to ignore vehicle in searches
It would be nice when searching lots of cars in multiple searches to ignore certain cars, and to be able to review a car, and then save it for future consideration (maybe with a 7 day limit to keep the list fresh). This would be better than grabbing URLs and stuffing in Keep.
1 voteThis is definitely something that’s on our radar; we have some other priorities that are higher, since bookmarks or something like Keep does work for this, but we agree that a feature like you describe here would be helpful!

Sort cars by country or continent origin, Like: give me results for German cars.
I would like to search for Italian cars, German cars, USA cars, etc. This will pile up all in one result.
1 voteThat could be really handy having them grouped together like that.

Small Truck Option
I'd like to see the single Truck category be split into small and full size (or large). (Canyon, Tacoma, Ranger, etc)
right now i'm having to type in the model of every small truck and an option for that would be much nicer to have.
1 voteI see what you mean. Unfortunately since we don’t get that data from our sources, I think the only way we could do it would be something similar to what you’re doing—we’d need to keep a list of all the small vs large truck models. Might look into it at some point if this idea is popular.
