It was a super easy buying experience. With the car market the way it is it was nice to know the price you see is the price you pay. No dealer installed option you have to pay for. No up charge for a car shortage. Staff was very friendly and I was in and out in less then 2 hours.

My experience was absolutely fabulous! I got the car I wanted and you gave me a good trade in value for my other car. Everything ran smoothly. II received all the information on the car I purchased and was grateful for their honest and expedient manner in doing business. I never felt more comfortable at any car dealership. Everyone was knowledgeable and extremely customer service oriented. I highly recommend CarMax and will definitely purchase any other vehicle from them.

Best possible experience Ive had in any dealership. Went above and beyond for me with extended reservation of my vehicle requested. Brought in for free from another location, what more can you ask for!? The associate which I can not remember his name! (James Sweetlove) was like a personal concierge how much he went above and beyond.

Everything went smoothly in purchasing my Porsche Macan Turbo. Susana was amazing to work with! I flew in from out of state to pick up my car, and she walked me through every step of the process quickly and easily. She answered all of the questions that I had too! I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. 10/10 would recommend.

Questions & Answers

Why are the sales sharks so dishonest. They forgot to put a hold on a car and they interrogate you when you just want to put a car on hold. Remember folks it's my money not theirs.

Sounds like a bad experience. Not all staff are competent. Unfortunate. Report it to manager or corporate or both.

Do you do classic car appraisals? If so how much will it cost?

nick Altieri | Aug 28, 2019
Kevin Moorman | Aug 28, 2019

They do not charge for appraisals. They are free! They are also good for 7 days if you want them to buy. Keep in mind these appraisals are only for them to buy, so you might want to go elsewhere if you're only trying to see what it's truly worth.

Can you bring your vehicle in without an appt for scheduled maintanance without an appointment

William Lau | Aug 28, 2019
Chris Quaglia | Aug 28, 2019

I believe you can but you would be at the mercy of the workload for that day and may have to leave the vehicle for an extended period of time. I would always recommend calling service to setup an appt

Do you have any interest in buying a 1987 MBZ 560 SEC with 160,000 miles in good condition? Black exterior with tan leather interior. AC condenser has slight leak only problem.

David Wong | Aug 28, 2019

There is a place on the website where u can check to see if they will buy your car. From what I heard the last time we sold them a car it has to be less than 10 yro and less than 110000 mi. But u def want to double check that. If u want to see how much they offer look on kelly blue book and they usually offer the tradein value.

Not necessarily you can go in as a walk in. If it's really crowded it may take a little more time.

Online search at carmax.com is extremely useful, so you get an idea of what you want when you visit the dealership. Staff there are helpful and professional, at least our helper was good. Good luck.

Even if your salesman was only half as thorough as mine, the documentation (that should have been) given to you when you purchased your vehicle provides that information for you.

Hello I do not have social security . Can I buy a car with you ?

graciela uriegas | Aug 27, 2021

If you're financing, use your ITIN to qualify for your loan. Use the App or Website to see if you can get pre-approval. If not, you can shop many lender's for about 2 weeks after your first credit check and it will only count as one inquiry. Always shop for the best rate when borrowing for a car. Credit Unions are almost always the best for loans and warranty prices.

How long does it takes to get my car price quote?

Phet Guiney | Aug 28, 2018
Jorge Benitez | Aug 28, 2018

About 30 minutes give or take. If you're selling your car, you get a better price selling it on a private party. CarMax will give you about 30% less than blue book. The they'll sell it off to a auction.
