First of all, I haven’t moved in 20 years. Didn’t see it coming. Sometimes life gives you incredible opportunities. I could drive this car uninsured off a cliff and id still be full steam ahead.
Yes, I flipped to Carmax at beginning of February. Carmax paid off vehicle on day 9 or 10, then it took about 2 weeks after that for the MSD check to be mailed to me from Volvo (which is what Volvo told me when I called them). Believe it or not Carmax was the highest offer. I had huge challenges with anyone else giving me a decent offer because there was no 2018 used data in the typical pricing tools, might have been better to flip a 2017. Also, where I am, most used places target the 3-5 yr old model instead of the 1 month old model.
Agree with Carmax, i unloaded my 2016 XC90 R with 27k miles today at Carmax for $43000, Volvo dealer offered me $38000 and Alfa dealer $36000 so it was a no brainer. Funny thing, I requested the payoff from Volvo and it was $43800 and i was ready to eat the $800, however whn Carfax obtained their dealer payoff it came back as $40,800 so they actually cut me the check back for $2200. You really learn something new every day. Next step is to get something nice for $300/month range with zero at signing.
I think you had the same issue I did. Volvo’s payoff to you includes sales tax as they assume you are buying it. But since you are not buying it, subtract that tax amount. I ended up using Autolender’s as they came in a little higher than carmax.
That’s interesting, as the payoff when I looked it up on my account and when Carmax called them matched identically. Perhaps because the tax is done differently in NC.
