Why Buy New?
It's no secret the New Car market is going through some tough times right now, supplier issues and stock have made finding new cars a little tough. Any car lot in Amarillo right now is not as full as it could be and it's a dance of moving cars around on lots to make it look like there is more available. Where CarMax comes in is they deal with used cars exclusively, something that is never in short supply and any car dealer will tell you demand is high due to the shortage of new cars. They market themselves with a no hassle no haggle buying process with top dollar for your trade in which is pretty standard fare. The dealership also offers its own in house financing, extended warranties and service shops as well. The Company opened a location down the road in Lubbock back in 2019
While there's no timeline on the opening of the Amarillo location there is a sold sign on the lot and that's a start. Speaking of cars... who doesn't love a vintage or classic? keep scrolling we got a few from the more recent car shows here in Amarillo
