I traded in a 2017 Toyota 86 and purchased a 2015 Mustang Ecoboost Premium with the Performance Package (including leather Recaro seats) this August. The whole experience went smoothly and professionally. I had the car transferred to the Buffalo store from Texas and was able to test drive and buy it a day after it arrived.A few days after I brought it home I noticed that it appeared to have some hail damage as well as some damage left after the vinyl stripes were removed. I contacted them and Grant, the manager, spoke with me and told me that they would make it right. He had me get an estimate from a local body shop, where they get their work done, and to make an appointment to have it fixed. I picked up the car today and they fixed ALL of the blemishes. The car looks great and I really appreciate that it was a no hassle transaction from start to finish.I highly recommend them for a car purchase, especially if you are a motor head like me and can appreciate the fact that they can pretty much get you any car through their vast number of stores.

We brought a car in to have valued today. It took two hours and the offer was $7,000 under Carvanas offer for a $30k car. KBB wise they were nearly $10k under. When challenged they explained several things including that the vehicle needed new tires… oddly enough we had replaced the tires 500 miles previously. It all felt a bit scammy and so obviously we won’t be doing business with CarMax anytime soon.

The team at Carmax Buffalo on NF Blvd couldn’t have been a better group to work with. We worked primarily with Beau who did an excellent job. Numerous team members jumped in a few times to help and keep everything moving efficiently. While the car buying process of course still took time, it was more streamlined than the typical dealership. 5/5 stars for the overall experience.

I sold my car to Car Max with no hassle at all!I filled out all of the information online ahead of time, had an estimated offer in hand and went to the physical location near me.Associate confirmed basic information, took pictures of my car, verified the information I gave ahead of time, and within 45 mins I had a “full price” check in hand!Made the process very easy for me!

I heard about CarMax from a a YouTube channel the Den of Tools who told of his experience of selling his used pickup truck to them. I also had a truck 2018 Colorado ZR2 and hat since I was moving to Florida I would no longer need. So I went online filled out the questions about my truck as honestly as I could, received my offer made the appointment to take the truck in for the inspection. I was met by a wonderful young lady named Jenn who looked the truck over thoroughly and said I have a great truck and let’s get paperwork done. I was in and out in less then one hour with check in hand. Definitely a 5 Star experience and would recommend it to anyone looking to sell or purchase a vehicle. Ask for Jenn

I first went there and traded my 2010 traverse in and got a Cadillac SRX. I later figured out that it wasn’t suitable for my children so I called and told them I spoke with Racheal she was all around great with comforting me through the process of returning the Cadillac for something more suitable for my family! She told me to quickly look on line for what would be better and call her with a stock number ASAP. My new vehicle arrived before my 30 days was up! I went yesterday and saw the new car which is a Sorento EX! When I got there I was greeted by George who did all the paperwork with me! After being there a while my girlfriend brought my 3 year old twins there and all of the employees there were doting over them. Racheal brought out crayons and little books to color in. George put them to work with help carry papers from the printer to me. The atmosphere is wonderful there the customer service is excellent and George is great with kids! Thank you George and Rachael for this awesome car buying experience ! Located in Buffalo NY

No one gets back to you! No one seems to know what is going on! Very unwilling to help! So many workers and no one gives you undivided attention! The first vehicle I put a hold on was apparently never held for me. The second vehicle was transferred without the the title. It cost $600 to transfer and after speaking to several people, no one seems to know where the title is! Extremely frustrating!! I am not receiving any help! Very poor customer service!

My experience at CarMax / Niagara Falls Blvd location was the absolute worst experience. The manager Grant talked down to me and my wife and attempted to sell us the SUV we had shipped from Clearwater Fl, with a huge gash in the tire. I attempted to explain to him that the tires showed on the Carmax webpage (4) brand new tires and that somehow the tire incurred a gash from the carrier who brought it up. He went on to say it was ok to drive it with a gash in the tire and nothing would happen. He stated tire would not blow out. Gash was completely down to the steel belts. Until I called Corporate customer service did his response / actions change. The manager Grant does not understand how to lead the team there. The sales person Natalie came up to us stating she agreed with us but due to the manager her hands were tied. I asked for the regional managers name but was never given the information. I previously purchased a vehicle almost 2 years and the experience was stellar compared to this nightmare. Never again Carmax at this location.

I had a great experience at CarMax Buffalo with Nathalie and Grant. I initially reached out to Grant, who connected me with Nathalie. She was my perfect car connection. We had a great rapport and I felt comfortable with her. I wasn’t sure about my first choice so she suggested the 24 hour test drive. When I brought it back, I still wasn’t sure. I quickly told her what more I was looking for. They were EXTREMELY busy and short staffed. She still managed to find the exact car I was looking for that day. It ended up being the car I bought. Nathalie was amazing! I loved working with her!

Easy going, extremely helpful staff. We traded in our family van for a smaller car. The trade-in was way above what others were offering us, and it was such a simple process. Test-driving was a joy.George, our sales associate, helped us search the lot as well as listings at nearby dealers. He lined up several for us to test drive (with kids! Thank you!). We didnt have to wait for anything. He made a low-pressure pitch for their extended care package, that was about it. They didnt try to sweat us or make us sit in an office somewhere while someone runs numbers. Its just, here are our cars, go drive them, see if you like them; if you do, you can buy them. No haggling, no song-and-dance where you make an offer and have to walk off the lot and wait for a phone call, or whatever boomer-age nonsense weve had to suffer through at other dealerships.Highly recommend.

My boyfriend and I are looking to sell his pickup truck and wanted to try carmax. We drove out there and got there 10 minutes before close, which I get is annoying..but we were completely turned away and told to try to come back a different day this week. We explained to them that was not an option as we are very busy and don’t live nearby… they just stood there staring at us without saying a word. There were several employees standing around just waiting to clock out huffing and puffing annoyed that we even walked in, but not one could just take the ten minutes to help us out and put some numbers in the computer and take a quick look at the truck. After the amount of vehicles we’ve bought and sold, I know for a fact that portion of the process does not take that much time. I’m really glad we took the rare bit of free time we have between jobs and three kids’ extra curricular activities to drive 20 minutes to get there BEFORE CLOSE to be told “ We’re closing soon, can you come back a different day this week?”

DO NOT TRUST CARMAX! I purchased a car on 6/23/2021. Was told there was no damage to it, and it would arrive in Buffalo by 7/12/2021. Shipping got delayed until 7/16/2021 and when it arrived in Buffalo it had chips, scratches, a crack in the window, broken visor clip, and was filthy inside and out. CarMax agreed to repair most of the damages. I dropped the car off 7/29/2021 and was told it would take a couple days. One issue after another caused the work to be delayed and delayed again. It took 2 WEEKS to strictly cosmetic work. When I received the car back it had nearly 150 miles extra on it, leading me to believe that it had been used personally or taken out for joyrides as its a convertible. They went as far as falsifying the mileage out on the service report. I have brought this to the attention of management and CarMaxs social media team with no sort of explanation. Their lack of communication and unprofessionalism should not be tolerated. Im uncovering new issues with the car almost daily (A/C doesnt work, squeaky brakes). Avoid CarMax at all costs!Update: Mac at CarMax Buffalo offered to extend my warranty an additional 90 days. I expressed to him that would do nothing for me as I plan on storing it through the winter months. He had no explanation for my car being taken for unauthorized use.

Excellent staff ...The whole process was easy .I requested a vehicle be transferred from another state and location .The vehicle was transferred within 4 days with no issues.I was able to take it for the 24 hour test drive .No one pushed any sale tactics they allowed me to decide if I wanted the vehicle .I drove the vehicle around the city and it was great !!! . Clean and in excellent condition. The photos on the site were spot on .In the final process of signing the papers the Buffalo team was great .They answered all of my questions and my customer service rep was very helpful and kind.Thanks CarMax ..You Rock !!!!!!!!!!!

Carmax was very busy the day of my appt. it took a little longer than expected. Part was due to getting a payoff from the Bank (although i did bring the payoff info). everyone i was in contact with was very professional. Art was thorough and did a nice job. I had a friend that went through this a few weeks again. Discussing with her, she said it sounded like my team was more thorough than hers. Very pleased with the experience. They made a difficult process very seamless. Nice job!

Review №57

I would have given CarMax a 5 but...The online trade-in appraisal was great, $1500 and it was honored on-site. Unfortunately, there was a Lien Release missing and the process of trading-in the car was delayed 7 days. The appraisal expired and when I went to trade it in with the release, just 3 days after the expiration, the value was a shocking $500. I lost $1000 just 3 days after the expiration. Your online reps tried to help but no luck so far. Worst of all, every time I call it is at least 25 minutes on hold with the absolute worst On-hold music ever created. Could have been great but I lost $1000 unexplained.

We sold my husbands old car - such a smooth process! I was able to start the appraisal process online for our 2009 Hyundai, answered the normal questions about the condition of the car, mileage, wear and tear, etc. and uploaded a handful of photos. I was very honest about the condition of the car (which had seen better days, for sure!) and within an hour - on a Sunday no less - we had an appraisal amount that was VERY fair. Bested the dealerships by $1,000. We took the car in the next day, spoke with an agent who was very polite, not pushy at all. MUCH better experience than with your typical car dealership. CarMax even appraised a second car for us (a 2011 Scion) and bested the dealerships price by $2,000! I highly recommend CarMax for selling/trading in a used car. Friendly staff, fair prices, very easy process!

While they have many lenders to accommodate most credit scores their lack of communication between departments and customers needs a lot of work.

I must say CarMax has definitely gained a customer for life. I was in the market for a low demand semi scarce vehicle (Lexus RCF) and after looking locally there were none in my area. After scanning all of the normal sites like cargurus autotrader.com and countless others Carmax had a great deal on one with only 9k mikes. They have access to the largest inventory of used vehicles because their network of dealerships nationwide. They also have a excellent extended warranty program. I had my car shipped from California to NY where I live and here’s the best part. I initially had my trade in appraised and I thought that was what I was getting for it. But because the shipment of been vehicle took longer than 7 days I had to get my trade in reappraised and to my astonishment I received 3k more than what I was going to get initially. With 1100 more miles on it amazing. No haggling no bs no pressure. All straightforward and couldn’t be happier with the experience and my new vehicle, thank you Carmax!

I had an overall good experience here. The sales people I dealt with knew what they were doing and were friendly to deal with. I feel that I received a decent price on the RAV4 that I purchased here and Im very happy with the car. There are only two reasons that Im not giving this the full five star rating, not major problems, but feel I should mention them here.First when we walked in on the day I purchased the car, there was a man sitting there staring down my girl and I with the most hateful look I have ever seen. He continued to do this for most of the time that we were there purchasing the car.There was no excuse for this, since everything went very smoothly with the purchase of the car. I dont know if he was an employee there or not, but looking back I wish I would have found that out, because his actions could make people not want to return.Secondly it was raining the day I picked up the car, so because of raindrops on the window,I didnt notice until I was driving home on the highway, that there was a ding in the front window. It was not a large chip but I could already see the black lines where it was starting to spread slightly. Luckily it was small enough and not on the driver side (in center). Whether anyone there knew that it was there, I have no way of knowing.But overall, I liked the buying experience and the people that I dealt with here. I purchased this car in October of 2019, so I now have had it for approximately one year. I am very pleased with this car .

I recently purchased a 2020 Subaru BRZ through this CarMax, and as an enthusiast I was initially very skeptical going into this buying process. Overall, I am very relieved to say that the entire process was totally transparent, and the staff were always putting in 100% to ensure that I was satisfied.Initially, I inquired about trading in my 2018 Fiesta ST, and had it appraised. I crunched some numbers, talked to my bank, got insurance quotes, and ended up moving forward with the trade, and initiating the sale of the BRZ. I found the exact car I wanted (down to the option!), paid a very fair $500 to have it shipped to this location, and waited for delivery. Upon arrival, the car needed to pass a NYS inspection, which included peeling off the extremely dark tint that was put on by the previous owner. Once the car had passed inspection, I drove it and confirmed that I was ready to buy. The next day, I came back to close the sale and trade in my Fiesta.After the always arduous process of getting all of the paperwork sorted, I drove my BRZ home. As soon as I got home, I noticed damage to the front bumper, clearly from when it was unloaded from the truck. I called, albeit a little frazzled, and was reassured that everything would be taken care of. I was able to pilot all communications between myself, CarMax, and the body shop doing the repair, and it was handled exactly as was most convenient for me and my needs. $0 out of my pocket later, I had a brand new bumper cover on the car and all was good.A few weeks after this, I received a letter from the NYS DMV regarding the insurance being suspended on my Fiesta that had been traded in, as apparently that was still registered under my name, and the state was not happy that this vehicle no longer had insurance. I found that a little odd, however I figured the DMV was most likely still backed up due to Covid. I called CarMax to confirm, and indeed that seemed to be the case-- the registration transfer paperwork was sent to the DMV the day of the sale. The temporary registration on the BRZ was set to expire 5/27, so I was eagerly anticipating the arrival of my new registration sticker to avoid any headaches. A week went by, and I still had not received my registration. With three days remaining on my temporary registration, I began to question what the hold-up was, so I called the DMV explained the situation, and was advised by the DMV to not drive the car if the registration was not processed by 5/27. I called CarMax again, and I was frustrated-- it is never fun to be told not to drive your new car (especially as an enthusiast) due to a registration hiccup. I was told by the person on the phone the paperwork was with them in an office, and not at the DMV. I decided it would be best to go to CarMax and talk with someone face-to-face, as I was stressed and upset after being under the impression that the DMV had the paperwork this entire time. Within five minutes of walking in, a wonderful associate explained the entire situation in which the paperwork was returned from the DMV due to a small clerical error. I was completely reassured that the paperwork had been revised and would be physically taken to the DMV the following business day to be processed immediately, which it was at the exact time stated, and I had the new registration that day.Throughout that process, everyone I dealt with was extremely apologetic, level-headed, transparent, and very willing to sort it out. I certainly hope the staff is properly compensated for the level of professionalism that I experienced! I am overall extremely impressed with the buying experience, specifically because I was so skeptical going into it. Driving is something I consider to be an expression of who I am, something Im sure other gear-heads can understand, and dealing with typical dealerships is, quite frankly, exhausting. I am beyond grateful for the assistance I received, and the fact that the whole process was so transparent.

I’ve bought and sold from CarMax in Nashville 3 times, always a great experience. When we moved to Buffalo I was excited to see a new CarMax had just opened here. I was disappointed in its small size and severe lack of inventory on site. Nevertheless, I chose a car in Colorado and had it shipped to Buffalo. I also had my trade-in appraised at the same time. The car in CO took 3 weeks to get here, and the title had been lost a long the way! They couldn’t sell me the car. So I chose another car in Maine to be shipped here. They had me do a reappraisal of my trade-in at that time. The ME car also took 3 weeks to arrive. When I finally went to pick it up, they made me do a THIRD appraisal of my trade-in. The process took forever, it was difficult to get anyone on the phone. Next time I’ll drive to a bigger, more competent CarMax to get the job done.

Super easy system to sell a car. From the front desk welcome to the rep handling the car sale, everything was smooth and professional. Would not hesitate to go back again.

Walked in without an appointment looking to trade in my car, they gave me a good trade in value which was nice. I even found car that I liked and was going to buy, but when it came down to financing they said only one bank would loan to me at 25% interest rate. No thanks. I bought my first vehicle at West Herr with absolutely no credit with 12% interest. CarMax should work with better banks instead of wasting 3+ hours of my time.

Great place to buy a car. No hidden bs between departments. All financing options, extended warranty cost numbers displayed on screen for you to see at all times. Didn’t have to waste an entire day to shop for a car. In and out in a matter of a few hours with no appointment during a busy day. Very friendly and courteous staff members.

My experience with CarMax was enjoyable from start to finish. I was able to shop, order the transfer of the vehicle I wanted and test drive it hassle free. I recommend checking them out. Definitely a better car buying experience for me hands down. No bologna. Thank you.
