Why CarMax

The way it should be

We only sell the best

Our cars

Carefully chosen

Millions of cars are ruled out by our vetting process, and we never sell cars with flood damage, frame damage, or salvage history.

125+ details we inspect

Anything that doesn't meet our standards is repaired or replaced by our highly trained technicians. Some cars have unrepaired safety recalls. Learn more.

CarMax Certified quality

We spend an average of 15 hours replacing parts, fixing major dents or scratches, and detailing to make your car feel like new. Then we give each car a final quality check.

Your perfect match

With 50,000 CarMax Quality Certified cars to choose from, there's a perfect match for your budget and life.
