Zach made the buying process so easy! He was very welcoming and walked me through everything. He made sure I knew every step of the buying process and was very detailed. Everyone here was smiling and you can tell they all love their jobs. I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy a car!
The selling process was easy and not complicated. I entered information about my vehicle online and got an offer in minutes. The offer was fair. Then I set up an appointment online for the next day. The visit to the store was easy and stress-free with helpful and friendly associates. I had a check for the amount offered in less than an hour. Highly recommended.
Thomas & one of his manager Christian provided exceptional customer service and hospitality during my two-year experience with them. They assisted me in purchasing a vehicle with my girlfriend and now with one of my closest friends. Their down-to-earth and friendly demeanor made the entire process enjoyable and reassuring. They truly stand out as some of the best customer service professionals I’ve encountered while helping my friends invest their money in something they genuinely desire!
Just purchased a car from CarMax. Turns out there were a few things that needed some adjustments. Parts were ordered, took the car in and the problems were taken care of in a timely and professional manner
We did some research and found what we were looking for at CarMax. As long as you know going in that they aren't going to negotiate any prices you'll be fine. We knew what we wanted and found our price through research. We paid the delivery fee for the vehicle and tested it when it arrived: all was in order l. Carmax's inspection was accurate. Our salesperson Andrew acted professionally and courteously to facilitate the sale and make us aware of any optional add ons available. The finance staff was a little bit in a hurry as they wanted us to sign for the vehicle before we even got to test drive it after it was delivered. Probably not their fault. And one financial staff got agitated when I asked about "documentation fees" and the law requiring that it be posted in the store that they are not required by law. A little thing like that made it a less than stellar experience, as we were treated like fellow human beings until that point. Yet all in all we are very happy with the experience.
