What Are the Reviews Like for CarMax Memphis?


Customers generally report having a good experience at the Memphis CarMax retailer. The car buying experience depends largely on who the car salesman is. Those who are fortunate enough to work with a good sales associate will praise them and the customer service they received. Likewise, ending up with a rep who is only there to sell cars and is not helpful results in a poor review.


Below are ratings from reputable sources:


Germantown:

  • Yelp: 3.5 out of 5 stars

Memphis:

  • Yelp: 3 out of 5 stars

Several customers describe having an excellent buying experience, but a common complaint for this location was that their experience with the service department was frustrating. After purchasing vehicles from CarMax, many reported having to come back not long after to deal with repairs. These buyers fault CarMax since they claim to conduct a 125+ point inspection on all vehicles.

As of January 2021, CarMax Memphis has an available inventory of 420 vehicles. Through data analysis, we found that these retailers sell a wide variety of makes, such as Toyota, Honda, Audi, Chevrolet and much more. When it comes to the age and mileage of the cars, there is a good distribution of age ranging from 2010 and newer, though most cars are from model years 2017-2019. With mileage it ranges from zero up to 130,000 miles, but most vehicles fall somewhere 10,000 to 50,000 existing miles. Older vehicles with higher mileage, as well as newer vehicles with low mileage are also for sale at this location.

How Are Cars at CarMax Memphis Priced?


Based on the chart below, most vehicles available at CarMax Memphis range from $10,000 to $25,0000. More affordable vehicles you can expect to find are older or high mileage, sedan style vehicles. More expensive vehicles are new (2018+) luxury models (e.g. Land Rover, Mercedes Benz, Audi, etc), reliable makes such as Honda and Toyota, as well as large SUVs and trucks.

What Percentage of the Memphis Car Market Does CarMax Memphis Have?


We searched CarGurus to get an idea of how many cars CarMax has available compared to the nearest stores around the city center. CarGurus’ listings of used cars in the Memphis area that are 2010 and newer, as well as under 100,000 miles total 9,800 vehicles for sale. Based on that number, CarMax Memphis accounts for a very small portion of the total market at 4.3%.


Keep in mind that the CarGurus listings are of vehicles available across the Memphis area, and at multiple locations. The advantage of going to CarMax is being able to compare a number of different vehicles at the same time.
