I am currently working on a car dealership website (my first dealership site). I am trying to figure out the best script to use for my client to post his inventory (with details and pictures). I thought a CMS would be the ticket but the CMS(s) (Joomla, WP, Drupal) I am looking at don't have very good plugins/modules for this action. If someone has some experience in this type of project could you provide some tips/help.

 

This is one of those projects that is on a low budget unfortunately.

 

Thanks in advanced.

I've built one but used ASP and a MS SQL database coding it myself. Not found a decent enough CMS for this so did one myself. Can order via price etc.

There are plenty of pre-made car dealer CMS's - http://www.hotscripts.com/category/php/scripts-programs/classified-ads/autos/ - varying quality but you should find something to suit.

I did find this (appears to be great) script at this site

This may be the best option b/c it gives the client a user friendly interface when adding automobiles. You can get a full license for $99. Little steep but I can use it for multiple sites so.

 

Thanks for the help tho guys.

At $99 it looks like a bargain

'little steep'. Compared to using a developer it's a steal!

Yeh? Well it works like a charm and very user friendly to the client. Thanks for the input guys. Makes me feel more confident in my decision making.
