Recently inquired here about your CarMax experience......here's mine Found the car I was looking for.....CM had it in Henderson NV...$99 to ship to SLC Cheaper than driving there to get it.....so made the deal to ship on Jan 3rd....finally on Jan 22....it arrives....independent truck carrier......must have stopped at Mustang Ranch a couple of nights in Reno This was the only frustrating part of the deal....picked the car up yesterday..2011 Lexus GX 460 Premium w/95K miles Super clean..2 owners in AZ & NV...all the bells & whistles...navigation...6 CD changer...Bluetooth....most of all Mark Levinson 17 speaker sound system....OMG.......a $4K option when car was new......sounds incredible ! CM offers a 7 day return policy with no questions asked..along with a 90 day 4K mile warranty...opted for no extended warranty This is going to replace my wife's DD..an '05 Tacoma DC SB which she has driven the last 14+ yrs & 176K miles She's having a hard time parting with the Tacoma....but has agreed with me to sell.....after driving the Lexus around today Overall...CarMax gets a thumbs up from me..no dicker on the sticker...paid high book for the GX 460...but the condition shows it CM file pics.......my pics later on........

Bought an 08 Fusion with lots of extras three years ago. Leather interior, bun warmers, Sirius radio, turbo, Sun roof. Had some miles but a complete history. It started out in Hawaii , Ne,. and then Misery. Bought for close to book but moderate mileage. Good salesman, no dickering, only had to go back for a small part replacement that was already scheduled and paid for. Runs good, looks good, and pleases She Who must be Obeyed. Simply, it is her car. Would go back. Be Well, Rustyzipper.

No gun lockers in mine. Won't be going to a miniature gun anytime soon. Wish the back seat had a disappearing gun locker that came out of the trunk. Never the room behind the seat close like in a small pickup. That's why I usually drive the truck. And Carmax had them but I just bought one from family last January. 2004 Ranger 4x4 with 67,000 miles for $8,000. Couldn't pass it up as I'm old and no acreage. And Grumpy! Be Be Well, Rustyzipper

Good experience several times w CarMax. Far and away the best way to buy a car from a dealership nowadays.

I went to a Carmax once. Didn’t much more than get out of my car before a woman walked up to me and said “Before you start looking, let me tell you how things work here.” I told her as long as I was the one with the money, I would decide how things worked, got back in my car, and drove away.

Great looking ride for your bride, hoping she’ll let you dive it on date night? Only bought one vehicle, for my bride, through CM. Was very pleased as well. As 163bc said above, best “dealership” way to go.

That’s a sweet ride..I think she’ll love it!
Are you part of the problem or part of the solution?

Very nice. My wife has a Lexus too, great rides. I worry far less about her on these nasty mountain roads. Our next one will be a '16 RX350--maybe in April and I'll consider CM.

Bought my 2017 Ram at CarMax. In and out in less than an hour. I knew what I wanted, the price I would pay and they had the truck. I was very happy with the experience and would certainly buy from them again. The only way to beat them is to buy from an individual and you will not get the exchange or warranty CM offers.
