Ways CarMax appraisals are different

We'll appraise any car with no obligation!See how we create a written offer (video 3:30) that's good for seven days. If you sell us your car, you'll receive a bank draft as payment the same day it's appraised. We also handle trade-ins as a separate transaction, so there's no obligation to buy one of our cars when we buy yours. Start at CarMax for your free appraisal.
