I sold two cars and bought 3 with Carvana. Honestly it is an amazing experience. I had one car delivered, and the other 2 picked up.

Zero haggling and very simple process.

It depends. I sold my cars at a very much higher value. And for the cars I bought. I could have gotten a discount with dealers. But for me, I honestly will be willing to pay $1K to avoid dealership nightmare

I bought a car through Carvana. I picked it up at the vending machine. A great experience and a good price.

UHG - yes! They gave me a big fake coin and I dropped it into the slot. The machine grabbed the wrong car the first time. So they reset it and grabbed my car the second time (2016 Jaguar XF).

Watch out for those interest rates

Bought my car (BMW 535i) from Carvana about 1.5 years back. It was a good experience and the price was very competitive. It did have a small scratch on it that wasnt in the photos and I needed to get the navigation control fixed as it was sticking but I was able to do that under warranty. However if you don't like the car you can always refuse delivery. I also had it shipped from California to Ohio (I think) which was ~$500.

The car has been great and was in much better condition than local used car dealers and that includes places like CarMax. The only place that has cars in better condition were the CPO cars at the BMW dealership. However they were $8K more for basically having no scratches versus a few small scratches. The car was still under warranty when I bought it and decided it wasnt worth it to go the CPO route. The car still looks great.

The great thing about Carvana is that they have massive inventory so if you want a specific set off options they probably have it but you might have to get the car shipped.

Good tip for next time! I probably should have done that, but honestly it was no big deal. It was literally 1/2 inch or so on the trunk where someone put something down.

Just bought a car from Carvana as well. Everything went pretty smoothly and price wasn’t much higher than I was seeing at dealers. Lmk if you want a $500 off referral
