    Have a page for each state, and then hire a regional sales team to create relationships with individual dealers. Have their current inventory in stock and a contact form that goes directly to you. You sell the leads to the dealers.

    Simple.

    You could contact a list of auto dealers and advise them that you will be auctioning the domain. Just set the reserve at a price you are comfortable with. Just my .02

      this would be a good option also.

      I wouldn't auction it though. Maybe say in the sales letter that you are contacting all dealers with the offer.

      Their used car division selling lease returns may want it. Its a generic name, and I'm not sure if that would be good or bad for a dealership.

    maybe sell an ebook/guide that helps consumers who are buying pre-owned vehicles from car dealerships.

    since you have certified in the name, you'll have to target those buying from licensed dealerships, not people buying from used car lots or individuals.

    factory orders aside, dealerships already have an inventory network.

    ex: go into a ford dealership
    dont see a model with the exact options you want?
    talk to a salesperson, and they can instatly search their system for the car you want
    they contact the dealership holding the car and arrange dealer trade.

    I'm not saying a lead generation site wont work, I personally would never buy a car online.

    Most people need the physical dealerships to work out financing along with their car search.

    It would be hard to track that lead. say you see a car from your website at a certain lot, wouldn't you just go there yourself and inquire about the vehicle?

    Get rid of it. Exact match domains are useless now.

    get a script that is used by websites that sell cars...populate it...and promote on car forums, youtube, maybe PPC...you can monetize it with auto insurance, loans...adsense...you dont have to be affiliated with car dealers!
