New and used car shoppers have a new resource to tap, through a new website from Michigan First Credit Union and TrueCar Inc., an automotive solutions provider.

The Member Showroom is available to the general public and offers a suite of services including the ability to research thousands of new and used cars, schedule test drives, receive price quotes and secure financing. The $570 million Michigan First in Lathrup Village, Mich. said it is the first credit union to partner with Zag, a TrueCar company, in the launch of the co-branded website.

According to the company and the credit union, a low-price guarantee will ensure that if the purchaser finds the same vehicle with identical features and options at a lower price within three days of purchasing from the auto-buying service, Zag will refund the difference. Michigan First is offering a 1% loan rate discount for those who have qualified for a loan and purchase a vehicle through the Member Showroom by May 9. The credit union said it will also offer insurance purchasing services through the site in the near future.
