    The website: this is an awesome place to purchase for used verhicle. i have greet experience using the website to look, compare, and get pre-approved on their website. Customer service is amazing: i came to the store in N. Austin to purchase the car that i got pre-approved for but i changed my mind in the last minute then Susan Pruett and Anderson (Carmax in the S.Austin) helped me out. I feel extremely impressive of how professional and diligent Anderson was when he gives me detail information about the car and also give me space And time to make decisions.

    Wow. Stunned. Went to get service done as I purchased a vehicle from them less than 6 months ago. These people are cruel. CRUEL. They said they couldn't help me because they didn't have any service people working today. (Wtf????) Look at the wheel in my pics! They didn't even offer to help put on my goddman SPARE TIRE despite me offering to pay. So because they didn't even help me get a tow truck, I drove my ass to the nearest discount tires (luckily it was only 5 mins down the road) but now there is more damage to my vehicle than it had initially when I pulled into Carmax. FUCK THIS PLACE. I wish my car had died anywhere else besides this hell hole. I am personally referring to a tall, middle aged, african american man with a dad gut.

    We just traded in two cars for a nice suv. Kevin Dao was our Sales Consultant, but I must he was more of a wizard. He helped my mother with the sale of my deceased father's vehicle. The complicated title situation has been holding up this sale for about a year now. Even the dealership that the vehicle came from were unable to help. Thanks to Kevin and CarMax, we were able to get that vehicle sold, along with another extra car we had. The entire process was almost effortless. I highly recommend this CarMax location. If at all possible, ask for Kevin Dao. I cannot speak highly enough of him.

    Very nice CarMax sales office and services. Had a very nice experience talking to several employees. They are very well organized! The facility looks super clean and like brand new. I had an appraisal done to my vehicle and the offer was about $2,000 below of what I expected. Oh well, still liked the business!

    I showed up to sell my car and received such warm, sympathetic service from Jarrett, Wills, and Reagan from estimate to sale.

    If aren't buying a new Toyota from here and you live within 1-350+ miles from here you must make…read more$1000+ per hour in your occupation. Never met Rito before this week when we bought our new Grand Hybrid Highlander at $8500+ below MSRP. Ordered pretty much what I wanted and more. Rito was VERY personable and spent a perfect amount of time orienting me to the new car. Other than the long drive getting here, there was very little downside. To the reader saying there must be something. It is through Costco Auto Program. Only two within 400 miles of Houston. One I never contacted in N Texas. The one in Roundrock was an awful experience..., to where even if they matched the price, the people that work there would be either very nice or rude as f. Had one or two employees made me feel like they were in a hostage situation ("get me outta here"). Selling cars does not give a dealership carte' blanche' to be rude. Nobody in Houston came within $5K on price, with many stating over and over again that I'm going to get taken. Nah, lazy people who aren't willing to do their research and drive 6 hours are getting taken. My wife has a RAV4 Hybrid and when we need a new Toyota we'll go see our friend, "Rito" at Autonation South Austin. Thank you!

    We had been shopping for a vehicle for over a year, with two different vehicles reserved at…read moredifferent times at both Cedar Park Toyota and Cavender Toyota in San Antonio. None of those vehicles were exactly what we wanted, and the prices were not in line with what we thought was realistic. Everyone wants their pound of flesh--and then some. A bit of background: For longtime Austinites, the dealership footprint currently occupied by AutoNation Toyota South Austin has a checkered history. Originally, the much-beloved Austin Toyota moved here from their West 5th location downtown, and were known for being fair, honest, and trustworthy. They were bought out by a Jack Apple owned dealership that many locals, myself included, had come to loathe; ultimately, it got so flagrant that they faced legal action and scrutiny from the Texas Motor Vehicle Division and the Attorney General's office. After Apple, this dealership was known as Champion, which had a few issues of its own. Negative experiences associated with both Apple and Champion left a lasting distaste, so much so that I explicitly told my wife to avoid even so much as getting a comparison quote here. Basically, I asked her to shop any place else. I was so desperate, I tried shopping at a dealership in Huntsville; when a dealership starts negotiations by treating you as their 'prisoner' that goes well beyond what we were willing to pay or suffer through at too great a distance. To our rescue came Joe Deanda at AutoNation. Joe, a former Marine and an all-around stand-up guy, changed the entire dynamic for us. He had to sell into a headwind, given past experiences. Joe initially found what seemed like the perfect vehicle for us at his sister dealership in Houston, but that deal fell through because there was a customer who had been waiting longer for exactly the same thing. Luckily, he then found a vehicle in one of my wife's secondary color choices that was not only a year newer but also a trim level higher and priced less than all the deals we had arranged previously. We had to wait about a month for delivery, but that's not bad post-COVID. Throughout the entire process, Joe was fantastic to work with. We communicated through email, text, and phone, which was a blessing since we live about 50 miles from their dealership. Being able to make deposits by phone made things even easier. When we arrived in person at AutoNation South Austin to pick up our new vehicle today, the experience was a virtual dead heat for the best car-buying experience I've ever had. It was simple, straightforward, and free of the usual dealership games and drama. Joe was the key to making everything run smoothly. Joe worked his hardest to help us with all of the technology--which was especially challenging since my wife and I are a 'divided' household: Android and Apple. He took his time with us during our purchase and delivery, which, including finance, took nearly 4 hours to complete. Now, let's talk about the finance side, which we had a quite a bit of trepidation about. Everyone dreads the finance guy, face it. We worked directly with the Finance Director, Michael Zielke. Mike made the process of selecting and understanding additional coverage easy and surprisingly pleasant. While finance processes often take time and can be super stressful, Mike somehow made it happier than expected and quite a bit fun--except for the inevitable check-writing at the end. I can't stress enough how highly I now regard AutoNation South Austin for new car sales. Joe and Mike turned our perceptions around. They didn't just get the car we wanted at an incredible price, they took the difficulty and stress out of the buying process. To me, this is exactly how car buying should be done. In fact, the experience went so well it's making me seriously consider buying my own new car here--something that was so far from my mind when we first started this journey it was in oblivion. And I hate buying cars, so that speaks volumes for the experience we had here.
