Jess C.

I bought my used car at CarMax in Gaithersburg, MD, and I can honestly say I'm now a CarMax customer for life. I've never received this level of care and respect from any dealership--ever. Every single concern I had was taken seriously. Any issue with my vehicle? Addressed and fixed--no hassle. And because they knew I was traveling an hour each way to get there, they even filled up my gas tank each time I visited. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. They never made me feel like a bother or like I was asking too much. It was hands-down the most pleasant car-buying experience I've had in my 39 years of life. From now on, I'll only buy cars from CarMax--and my kids will too. I'll recommend them to anyone who asks, especially the Gaithersburg location. Huge shout-out to Brandon in Service--you were absolutely amazing. Thank you!

Customer service was terrible. Waited 2 hours before being seen when I had an appointment. The employees were just standing around and on their phones.

Carmax personnel hard at work.

I went to Carmax to get my car appraised. The process was quick and easy. I had a wonderful service staff person. It took about 30 minutes. My issues were with actual appraisal. I know my car is not in perfect condition. But, some of the things they wrote down seemed like they were really stretching. I was told that my roof had some hail damage. Even with us both looking at the car,no one could see any damage. I was told that they do this, so the appraisal is less money. I can not say this for sure, but I was disappointed in the results. So, the process is pretty seamless, but I am not sure the appraisal is accurate.

Used car dealer does not allow pre-purchase inspections. You would be wise to look elsewhere.

I wanted it gone quickly, and with minimal hassle, so I called to see what they had to say. Over the phone, I was given a best case scenario price of $1900. Physically, my SUV was in decent shape, given its age. However, since the motor was shot, I was already prepared for the final offer to be a lot less. After a test drive and an assessment of the vehicle, the offer dropped by about half. The rep explained all of the work that would be required for them to repair the vehicle, prepare it for resale, and turn a decent profit. I appreciated him taking the time to explain the reason for the offer, and I liked that he was open to negotiation. I showed him my other offers and we negotiated until we were able to find a price that we both agreed was fair. After signing over the title and filling out a few other pieces of paperwork, I left with a check in-hand. The entire process took about 20-30 minutes. Actually, it only took so long because he had a hard time getting the front tags off and had to borrow a tool from a nearby AAA to finish removing them. I admit, I was expecting a scam, due to both the corny commercials and the extremely minimalist office space. However, it looks to me like they skimp on all the frills to be able to offer sellers the most money they can for their trade-ins. From my experience, I'd say it's an honest business, and I definitely recommend them to anyone who wants a quick and fair resale without all of the headache. I was nothing short of amazed at how easy this process was, how friendly the rep was, how easy he was to work with, and how quickly I was able to rid myself of this 3,174 lb nuisance.

After my frustration with AAA, despite being a "Plus" member, I decided to look at local towing. I…read morehad recently bought a car third party and needed it to be towed to my mechanic. I stumbled upon Dennis and his business online and the whole experience was fantastic. We gave him a call and he gave us a very fair and competitive price quote. Everything sounded like so great so I confirmed and he said that he'd be there in 25 minutes. I expected him to be late but he was there before 25 minutes as promised. Promises are hard to keep when you're busy but Dennis seems like a business owner that holds true to his word. Talking to him on the car ride to my mechanic, it seems that Dennis prides himself in customer service and always has a positive outlook. I work in the customer service industry myself and I was highly impressed. As a result, I personally recommend him for any roadside assistance needed. Look no further if you need someone for towing services! Support your local small business owner!

The dispatch was so nice and friendly and told me to turn my flashers on and that he is sending a driver right the way. The tow truck driver Danny arrived really fast and it took him literally 2 min to load my Volvo on his truck. On our way to the dealership Danny offered me bottle of water and made me feel really comfortable. I want to thank the driver and the dispatch for being so helpful in such a difficult situation.

They even show all their work to you, on paper (nothing is hidden from you) Car buying and dealing with dealerships is stressful to me, and WingMan Auto took on all that stress and headache for me. Seriously, all I had to do was sit back, wait for them to find my car, get me the best discount possible and voila. All I had to do was walk into the dealership, sign the papers and get the keys. It was the least stressful car buying experience I've ever had. I am so happy with my experience. You will not be disappointed, don't hesitate to take advantage of this amazing experience.

Definitely worth the money; I would recommend WingMan Auto to anyone looking to buy a car and searching for help negotiating with dealerships, expanding their search, and finding exactly what they're looking for. The process made buying a car so much less stressful. Farah helped me find the exact car I was looking for, in a newer model, with more features than I was expecting, and even helped coordinate a hitch installation after purchase. I would go through him again to find my next vehicle!
