It’s going. 21 Scatpack. Anyone here done this. Advice? Can I just take a check when it is picked up or delivered? Just want it to go and not see it again. Thanks.

Wife says it doesn’t ride as smooth as the 300. Ran out of parking too. Getting decent offers.
18k miles.

Dennis, how did you get the offer? Online first or did you stop by the dealership? Congrats on a quick sale.

For others' info - In the past 3 years I've used Carmax twice (they gave highest quote compared to Carvana and Shift) - I got online quote by entering car info, then next day showed up in person to Carmax and in 90 min after they did inspection, test drive and paperwork, I walked with a check, both times high dollar due to the current inflated prices. I sold my 2019 Civic after driving it for 3 years 26K miles for only $500 less than what I paid for it. Can't beat that! Just reporting this in case others are reading this thread and want options.
 
I’m late but I’ve sold 2 cars thru Kelly blue book. In both cases I took it to a local dealer in their network and there was hardly any price haggling from the KBB offer.
 
I've sold through CarMax as a last resort. Their offers are competitive and allow you to avoid dealing with tire kickers and waiting for a serious buyer
 
90% Indian Employees. Hispanic Maintenance employees. Guy I dealt with was maybe 30 years old. Never even looked under the hood. Seemed shocked when I insisted to go along when he drove it. Only went around the building. Not a bad experience but very limited auto enthusiast aspect. Mileage, dash lights, and carfax reports rule. Could’ve been a 3.6 Pentastar under the hood.
Someone will get a descent car. But it’s still Caveat Emptor for the buyer.
