3. Step 2: Review Car Details and Inspection Report
What’s in a Carly Car Listing?
Each car has a complete page with:
- Photos: 20-40 high-resolution images (interior, exterior, under hood)
- Basic info: Year, model, mileage, color, fuel type

- 150-point inspection report: Each point documented (passed / needs maintenance)
- Vehicle history: Accident record (if any), number of owners, service history
- Warranty: Carly warranty details
- Financing: Available payment options (cash, bank financing, Tamara)
How to Read the Inspection Report?
The inspection report is divided into 8 categories:
| Category | Points |
|---|---|
| Exterior | 19 |
| Interior | 38 |
| Fluids | 7 |
| Brakes | 7 |
| Chassis | 19 |
| Equipment | 18 |
| Mechanical | 27 |
| Structure | 15 |
Each point has a color:
- 🟢 Green: 100% sound
- 🟡 Yellow: Needs routine maintenance or has a minor note
- 🔴 Red: Needs repair (these cars usually don’t get sold)
Important Tip
Look at the engine, transmission, brakes, and chassis points first. These are the costliest issues if something is wrong.
