A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
Does CarMax negotiate on their offer?
No. Like Carvana, CarMax uses a no-negotiation model. Their appraisal is their offer, and you either accept or decline. The difference is that CarMax's appraisal is done in person at the time of your visit, so the number you get is typically the final number (barring undisclosed mechanical issues). CarMax offers are usually valid for 7 days, giving you time to compare with other buyers.

People come for the number. They stay for how easy we make it.
My car leasing experience with Vantage was fantastic. Sean took an overwhelming decision and process and made it so easy. He was available morning, noon, and night as well as weekends. He never pressured me and simply gave me facts and possibilities and recommendations. The experience was really amazing from the start and I’m extremely grateful for his help in making the car leasing process manageable. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking to buy or lease a car. Sarah

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.

This was the easiest lease that I have done so far. Best part is no back and forth, hours at the dealer and car was delivered to me :)Thank you Sean for all your help!

I just leased my new 2026 Nissan Rogue through Vantage Auto Group, and the experience was fast, easy, and completely stress-free. I worked with Charles Serpone, who was prompt, knowledgeable, and professional every step of the way. He listened to what I wanted and helped me get the exact price I was aiming for. I couldn’t be happier with the process — highly recommend Vantage Auto Group and Charles for anyone looking to lease their next vehicle!
