I know the local guy I shop at and post links from on occasion does a good business buying clean cars to resell. They have the same set-up as Carvana (minus the tow trucks I assume!) where you fill it out online, and get a quote back (probably not real time though).

If it is real, the seller may be in distress and just needs the cash.

Carvana and Vroom both offered $21K or higher for the Outback recently. CarMax offered $19,500, and the Subaru dealers keep telling me to trade it in, at a guaranteed value of $18,600.
It helps that I have a CarMax less than 10 minutes from me. About 30 minutes for the inspection and quote.

Said that they buy a lot of cars from Enterprise (!). Also, they are the same company as DriveTime. Which is a mostly sub-prime financing used car lot.

Anyhow, I took a moment to snap some photos, as is customary for purchases on this board. I know you were all waiting with bated breath, right?!
Without further ado:

I'm up to 400 miles now, and managed to ride ten out of ten commutes with it this week. Well, assuming I did not just jinx myself for the ride home tonight.
I had my first flat tire on Wednesday, but was able to get it back to running with supplies on hand. I'm somewhat surprised that I made it as long as I did (about 350 miles); bike flats are as annoying as they are inevitable.

It's a great workout, though not debilitating like it was with my last bike (which was very similar to this, but without the electric assist). The total ride takes about 40 minutes each way (compared to about 25 minutes by car).

If I needed a car now I would snap it up. But my timing always stinks.

I've sold 3 cars to CarMax in the past. A 98 Cadillac Catera, that I loved and hated bought used 1 year old (13 times to the shop in less than a year), 99 Passat GLS (wife's, leased an Odyssey when we were dragging all of our infant daughter's stuff around), 2000 Olds Intrigue GL (bought a clean 01 Aurora 4.0). The prices they gave me were better than what I was being offered at the dealerships. You're right, their current offers to purchase are too low.

Fast forward to the collapse, the Mercedes dealership was able to lock the strut in place so that I could drive it to CarMax for another appraisal. CarMax reiterated its $7k offer.
The vast majority of dealerships I contacted with while shopping were willing to match CarMax sight unseen. AutoNation also matched them. One Audi dealership even agreed to beat CarMax and AutoNation by $500. $3k vs $7k is a big difference to me...
However, when I was selling my Phaeton, they offered me only $4k and I ended up selling it on eBay for $7k.

However, since then, I put another $350 into it for tires (it came with a nearly new set of Blizzak, but summer tread was s-h-o-t. The detail was $200, and I will replace the struts/shocks and motor mounts before I hand it off (another $200). With this stuff done, it's a solid, comfortable car. No regrets.

Went to CarMax when I bought the Golf and they offered $1K more than VW did for my Tucson. Saved the print out and after showing it to the VW dealer, they matched it and got a thousand more. Worked for me at the time since I knew selling at just over one year of ownership was ludicrous...but I just wanted out of the Tucson badly and the Golf just literally blew me away! Also, since the wife had just bought her A3 the week before, she opened the door to buying German and the rest is history. She's still happy even though it's an appliance to her, an expensive one, but still, an appliance. And the fact that it's been flawless, icing on the cake.
Suydam, thanks for the advice about my MacBook Pro, I'll do just that and if the kid doesn't take it for a trade-in, will just get a check and bank it.

Works for me as it's closer to home, maybe saves me 8 miles or so and I'm getting some more time in working to right before 8 till 6, if not longer. Even though we close at 6, folks still show up at 5:58 to either drop off or pick up a vehicle. So all the way around, this new office works for me. Even volunteered for tomorrow but was told "thanks, but you're not needed. But might need you an extra day during the week", which to me means Thursday since I've got plans Tuesday. Don't mind doing that extra day but not every week, every other week could work or better, every 3 weeks. Since I never know how my pain score will be from day to day, don't want to temp the fates as they know every other day is the perfect schedule for me. Taking it easy on Tuesdays and Thursdays just works for me and anyways, I do not want to work full time anymore, will do up to 30 if necessary. But after that, would rather not.
