Independent, and staying that way
I don't sell cars. I don't take referral fees from body shops or mechanics. The only person paying me is you, which is the entire point.
Why I started this
I’m Misha. I’m 20, and I’ve been obsessed with cars for as long as I can remember. The day I got my license at 16, I bought my first car and started learning how to work on it myself. Since then, I’ve bought and sold more than 20 cars for friends and family — and I started noticing a pattern. People were getting taken advantage of. Private sellers and dealers would hide accidents, downplay mechanical issues, or flat-out lie about a car’s condition, and buyers had no one in their corner.
That’s why I built VerifiedCars. Over the years I developed a thorough process to inspect a vehicle without disassembling it — using tools and techniques most buyers don’t have access to — so I can spot accident damage, hidden problems, and major red flags before you hand over your money. My goal is simple: help you make an educated decision when you’re buying, selling, or even dealing with a shop.
I bring 4–5 years of hands-on experience evaluating used vehicles, and I consult a licensed mechanic with 15 years of experience on any serious concerns or questions that come up during an inspection — at no extra cost to you.
How I work
Plain-language report
No scores or jargon — what I saw, in words you can act on.
No dealer ties
I do not sell cars and take nothing from any shop.
Repair cost ranges
Every finding comes with what it should cost to fix in the GTA.
CARFAX included
Every inspection comes with a CARFAX vehicle history report, on me.
No guarantee
I report the car on the day I see it. I will not pretend to predict next year.
What an inspection is — and isn't
An inspection reports the car's condition on the day I see it. It isn't a warranty and can't predict future faults.
