    The best place to buy a car. Great service, friendly and honest. Also: great financing.

    Jamil Rd off Piney Grove Rd from I 26…read more Visited recently for purposes of car appraisal, first time in at least 10 years since I purchased car from lot. I like that they have all the different brands on lot, that can have vehicles shipped in nationwide for minimum fees. I do not necessarily like that the prices are firm with no negotiation or haggling. This goes for the appraisal too, they come back with one price and that's it. It's probably personal preference but I prefer a little wiggle room vs none. The inside of the building is unchanged from last visit except there are no cubicles only lots of desks. The entire floor showroom is just desks many more than employees it is not a great look. The use to have actual cars in the showroom, this is what looks better IMO. I don't think I will use Car Max in the future, there are better deals at dealers or any other named online Car seller site.

    I'm rating the car buying experience at Car Max…read more I've worked in the car business and I don't mind negotiating, but the CarMax experience is easily the most pleasant and least stressful experience I've come across. There isn't negotiation. Everything is in front of you and it's spelled out clearly. One of the benefits of buying from here is the ease of finding the vehicle you are looking for before you even step foot on the lot. You can walk the lot if you prefer, but CM makes it so easy to find your car before you even come down. You can complete the entire process online and have the vehicle delivered, or you can reserve a vehicle and test drive it on the lot. You can walk in and meet a salesperson who will help you find your car. They have a ton of vehicles available and you can select from any location to your local store for a fee. Some ship for free. Matthew B was very thorough and showed us a bunch of vehicles. He then helped us find our choice of vehicle and we paid to ship to our store. We drove the vehicle and bought it when it arrived. The sales person gets paid a flat commission so it doesn't matter what vehicle you choose. They won't try to upsell you. Whether you buy a Chevy or a Mercedes, they are paid the same. They are genuinely interested in finding the right car for you. From the test drive to leaving the dealership in our new vehicle was a little over two hours. There was no stress, no going back and forth. What you get is an appropriately priced vehicle of your choosing. I do recommend the pre-qualification, which you can do online. It's pretty accurate and prepares you for what you can expect. You can purchase MaxCare with every vehicle. That's really the only add-on. I recommend if you're buying a higher mileage vehicle. They do a comprehensive inspection and they fix any issues before you even test drive. They also post pictures of any discrepancies online. Every vehicle comes with a three-month 4,000 mile warranty. I would absolutely recommend them and will likely purchase my next vehicle from them.

    On May 17, 2025, I purchased a used 2020 vehicle with ~75,000 miles from DriveTime for $15,000,…read moretold to be in good condition. I drove it ~4,000 miles over 45 days. On July 3, 2025, it broke down completely and requires a full engine replacement ($10,000-$12,000). My 30-day coverage expired, and without an extended warranty, the dealership refused assistance. I requested a trade or replacement, but they declined. It is not reasonable that a purchase of this magnitude last just beyond the standard 30 day warranty. To any reasonable consumer, a $15,000 vehicle purchase represents a significant investment, and it is expected that such a purchase would provide reliable use for more than a single month. A total engine failure within 45 days renders the product essentially worthless and undermines the very purpose of the transaction. I voluntarily returned the vehicle to the dealer, and they still have it. I am left with a $15,000 loan on a non-running car with almost no use. Between the sales practices, conflicting pricing, and early failure, I believe the business is engaging in misleading and predatory practices.

    DRIVETIME COLUMBIA GREYSTONE BLVD LEMON!!!!! I purchased a…read more2020 Kia Soul in November 2024 with a down payment of $1,800. I drove the car less than 1000 miles and it was less than a month later from the purchase date when engine light came on and the transmission died (I'm a very conservative driver). After the transmission was replaced "TWO TIMES" by two different transmissions, the check engine light came back on a week after the transmission was repaired. I contacted Drivetime. They took no responsibility for selling me a car I now can't afford as a result of the multiple issues with the car. I NEED A RELIABLE VEHICLE!! This car literally put me completely down while driving it twice!!! I need to get to my medical appointments!!! This undependable car put me in situations that could've landed me in the hospital or even worse. I'm on oxygen 24/7 and this car left me stranded!!! Do you know how scary that is!! A portable oxygen tank is powered through the car while driving. What if my oxygen tank would have died while being stranded in the interstate out in this hellacious heat?! This company put my LIFE at risk!!! This is the only transportation I have. And I'm at a $1800+ loss. I am HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED AND UPSET! They treated me like I was the one that was suckered into a trusted purchase from them! I have not been treated fairly or with any kind of concern for the LEMON they sold me!!!!!!

I called to find out what time they closed and I was told 6:00pm. When I arrived at 5:42 , the door was locked. I called the owner and he was very rude, nasty, and was not willing to help me. He said the girl must be gone for the day. I told him that it is not 6:00pm . He then responded with a nasty tone and attitude saying well what am I supposed to do , I am not up there and I'm working . Sir, NONE of that is my problem. If you knew you had a customer on the way , you should have told your receptionist to wait until y'all close to leave. Your cars are trash anyway and not worth 2 wooden nickels put together. I have had to replace and put more money in the car that I purchased from you all than it was worth to begin with because you lied and said nothing was wrong with it lol. DO NOT PURCHASE A VEHICLE FROM THEM. They are NOT reliable and they are very weak and nasty when it comes to customer service. Go somewhere else if you can, because I wouldn't sale these cars to a dog.

    I bought 2 cars at the same time one car was down and not drivable within the first week second car…read morewas put into shop they told me it would cost around 8k to fix everything!! Now with both cars down and had already put much money into. he said he would replace the one car after telling him I had no extra money! he said he would just trade it for another . After driving all the way back out he wants me to give both cars back for one..! moral of the story they are a scam and a rip off.
