I had a great experience selling my vehicle. It was so easy to get the quote online and make an appointment. Once at CarMax everyone was very helpful and friendly and the whole process was quick and easy. Would definitely use them again.

I bought a car here in 2008 (that ironically because of it being totaled 12.03.21 is the reason for returning in order for my second son to get a vehicle since it was his). I helped my second son with shopping for a car since this was his first PURCHASE of a car since January. We searched, viewed and test drove too many cars to even remember at too many dealerships than one should have to. We stopped by CarMax one day, spontaneously, and I remembered why I have always told people to go here...the EXPERIENCE is one you'll never have at any other dealership. You aren't pressured, stalked, lied to or even have to spend hours to just negotiate. BONUS : it's peace of mind that you won't leave this place with something you won't have for a long time (if you do your part). My son felt the same experience from the first second we stepped in and I wish I would've just started here because I know he would've had a car before now and not so many negative events during his first car purchase experience. He purchased a 2015 Kia Forte on April 2, 2022 for a great price and I couldn't be any more proud of him. His sales associate, Ms. Fitzpatrick, top notch ! Thank you and CarMax for restoring the happiness that should come when shopping for your first vehicle ! WE'LL BE BACK !!

Salesmen are always great and have a wonderful attitude. Got two cars appraised. One was a instant offer we had done prior and the other was getting done that day. Sold them the instant offer but the other offer was too low and took it elsewhere. Back of the house and paperwork processing takes a very long time and needs to be improved. Bought a car from Tesla with a trade in and it only took around 40 minutes rather than the almost 3 hours we were at Carmax to sell one vehicle that already had an instant offer.

Professional friendly efficient service! How did I not know that CarMax was on Jamil Road? Travis really help me out with the car buying process. They really go with your budget. I will be a returning customer when I'm ready for my third vehicle.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
