I’m not planning on buying another car, so the trade-in route is closed. However, there are some other fees associated with buying a car from CarMax. The fact that it has become the go-to rebuttal for everything illustrates how few good examples there are of successful vertical integration. Franchise law merely clears up the gray areas created by the high priced and most imaginative attorneys who work for the OEMS. I really don’t know why that model still exists in this day. No haggle prices mean you are leaving yourself vulnerable to overpaying for your next vehicle. I have also encountered people that refuse to sell their car for a penny under $$$ to a person but when trading in or selling to CARMAX will take well less than that. But Carmax’s selling policy is designed to eliminate those uncertainties and provide disclosure with both the high end car, and the beater car. What prevents traditional automakers from selling direct is their own contractual obligations to their franchise dealers and the fact they know they don’t know how to retail cars. RE: “Perhaps other posters can point out if I’m being simple-minded here.”. Haggling is one of my favorite parts of buying a vehicle!!! I love my Suze! Probably around 80,000. What Apple does “right” in their business can be seen as “right for their business.” It doesn’t translate, but those who are willing should feel free to try. The difference is the dealers “sticker price” leaves room to haggle, CarMax’s does not. I’m still not ready to give it up. I believe he got a pretty good deal at a local Honda dealer, instead. There are no negative equity trade ins on gadgets or complex finance issues to work out. Why would the sales person think they were “trying to screw you so hard?”. Your perfect GTI needs to be sold to the right buyer. I say that because my wife’s three sisters all traded their Highlanders for a 2014 JGC each, during March-April 2013 and had issues with them. Before we went to the Mazda dealership to talk trade-in, I took it to Carmax to see what they’d offer. Because Carmax can get the premium return along with a seller fee of about $165 for each vehicle sold, Carmax can pay more for certain cars than other dealers. The seller says, okay, come with me and we’ll do the paperwork. So I always take the longest term I can get at the lowest possible interest rate, but it is paid off by the day the warranty runs out. I have two 8-yo twins grandkids to help put through school and buy cars for like I’m doing for my 16-yo and 21-yo grand daughters, so I need every cent I can scrape together to make that happen. There were so many comments they only display a small number. That five year old Chevy Aveo with a bad automatic transmission, and a 25 year old Honda that looks like it got into a fight and lost, will have one thing in common. I have an excellent credit score. Nowadays, thanks to the Internet, everybody theoretically knows this stuff. In most states an OEM can acquire a dealer license but they might need to form a separate corporation to do so. My loaded 2008 CR-V last year that they offered $16,000. I appreciate advice, just not the time, got rid of the Taurus 2 years ago. It’s a good safety net and is a great reply to the lowballers. Other than that, the math will stay as it is. I contacted TrueCar as well as a friend who is GM of an Acura dealer in California and he gave me a number to contact a regional executive over the particular dealership that had sold the car that was reserved for my friend. Well, the answer depends a lot on what type of vehicle you’re trying to sell… which is why I’m introducing Carmax’s wholesale operations into this write-up. It was an 18-month battle, but I finally got a check for $2600 from them.
