Bought a car online with Carvana

Post by Spikes40 »

So i tried out the online car buying experience and i have to say, it was far better than sitting in a dealership all day. Was able to search thousands of cars with any filter i wanted to find the exact deal. Was delivered to my house 3 days later and they picked up and took my old car with a VERY fair trade in value. Now that i have the car, i was given 7 days of 400 miles to test drive and make sure i want to keep it. If i decided not to, it is taken back no questions asked for a full refund. If anyone is thinking of doing this, here is a link they gave me and if you use it, you will get $200.00 off your purchase and i think i get something as well

Just wanted to share my experience

Somehow paying for a car before test driving it is totally wrong. If you buy the car, have it delivered, & register the car right away, then test drive it, & decide it’s not for you, & return it do you get every penny back including all tax, tag, & title fee’s. GARY.

Yes, nothing is charged until you come out of the 7 day test drive period. Then registration period begins....

Test drive at a physical dealership, then order online.

I like the carvana experience better... test drive for 7 days or 400 without a sales guy chirping in my ear as to why it is great or why i need it

But do they keep your trade-in car "on reserve" until that final decision? If you want to return it, do you get your old car back?

Oh, man…this business model would benefit the domestic/foreign marriage and sex worker industry.

yes, nothing gets processed until you give the final Yay or Nay. i have tried to find holes in this process but honestly i was pretty impressed with the ease of EVERYTHING

Carvana is getting hit for not providing titles or full registration for months after purchase.

I have not bought from Carvana but I read on the car forums I follow members having great experiences. In some cases, Carvana seems to give the best trade in, others had Carmax give better trade-in value. In all cases I have read, always better than a traditional Stealership! I know of cases where members returned cars to Carvana and were very happy they got all their $ back. Try to do that at a Stealership and they will take you to the cleaners!

I wish there was a Carvana type dealer for brand new cars. I would rather have a colonoscopy than go to a a traditional Stealership and be abused for an entire day. I hate Stealership soooooo much! Maybe Tesla has the right new car model - no Stealerships? I don't know, I never bought a Tesla, and never will. Let the Libiturds have them - more gasoline for me to burn up!

Maybe after China-Virus, some Stealership improved and I see a few that bring the new cars to you to test drive. The Stealerships just like to abuse their customers. Especially here in Mosquito County!
