A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
Does CarMax negotiate on price?
No. CarMax uses a firm, no-haggle pricing model on every vehicle they sell. The sticker price is the final price -- there is no back-and-forth negotiation like at a traditional dealership. However, you can negotiate on your trade-in appraisal, financing terms, and optional add-ons like extended warranties.

I recently leased a car through Vantage Auto Group in Watchung, NJ, and worked directly with Sean Ulsaker. The experience was nothing short of remarkable. No pressure, no obligation, no haggling—just honest, efficient, and top-tier service.My car broke down on a Monday. I contacted Sean, and by Thursday, I had a new vehicle delivered to my place of business. He guided me through car recommendations, arranged test drives the very next day, handled all the paperwork, and made the entire process seamless. I didn’t even have to leave my office.From now on, I’ll be working exclusively with Vantage Auto and recommending them to anyone looking for a stress-free car leasing experience. Sean and the team truly go above and beyond. thank you Sean for the excellent service. First time leasing a car and not having to take headache pills.Again, thanks! Manny Barrueco

Mark Viegas is an absolute lifesaver. I truly don’t have the words to express how grateful my husband and I are for such an incredible experience - and such a quick turnaround. After my daughters and I were in a very serious car accident early last week, I knew getting a new vehicle would be overwhelming and stressful.Enter Mark Viegas at Vantage Auto Group. From start to finish, he made the entire process unbelievably simple. We shared exactly what we were looking for, and within 48 hours a brand-new car was delivered straight to our driveway.The days of walking into dealerships and negotiating prices are long gone. I will never go back - and neither should you! If you’re in the market for a new car, I can’t recommend Mark enough - reach out to him. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

I had a great experience working with Sean at Vantage Auto Group. I wasn’t really looking forward to going through the car-buying process, but Sean made it incredibly easy. He found the exact car I wanted, got me a great deal, and had it delivered right to my driveway, without ever having to deal with a dealership. There was no pressure, no pushing, and no feeling that anyone was trying to take advantage. Everything was smooth, straightforward, and stress-free. I would absolutely recommend Vantage Auto Group to anyone who wants the car-buying experience to be easy and hassle-free.

My wife and I recently moved from the city and needed a car but didn’t know where to start. At first we tried online, but it was honestly a little overwhelming. I reached out to a local friend for leads, and he pointed me to Vantage. I hopped on a call with Sean after work and gave him a rough outline for what we were looking for. I’m not a car guy, so it was basically: “I need something safe, reliable, and not falling apart.” Sean very much IS a car guy, and he took it from there. After going over our budget, he recommended a couple options, as well as compelling reasons to lease instead of buying used as we had planned. The next morning we went back and forth via text to hash out the details, and then that afternoon a beautiful brand new car within our budget rolled into our driveway. I signed some paperwork with his team, and that was that. Literally less than 24 hours after the initial phone call, I was all set. It was easier than 99% of all my other projects that go into moving to the burbs. The whole experience was extremely communicative and chill. And on top of everything else…I straight up love this car. I fear I’m a car guy now. Thanks, Vantage.

David made a seamless transaction without the hassle of going to the dealer. Located the truck I wanted and delivered it on time. Signed the paperwork which took 5 minutes and the professionism was top notch. It's rare these days that you get someone who's responsive and didn't put you through an automated response. Answered all my questions promptly and made sure I received the truck I was looking for.....Was a pleasure!
