I don't usually advertise this, but over the years I have bought 3 cars from CarMax (including one BMW currently in my stable) and all three have been fine.

I have bought used and CPO cars from Honda and Toyota dealerships and have been massively unhappy with them.

I've learned over these experiences that no matter what you are buying, it is on you to ensure its good to go. When I bought these Honda and Toyota, CPO or not, they are still used cars being sold by a used car dealership, albeit one that also happens to sell new cars in one of their adjacent buildings.

In the end, I do not see much difference between any used car dealership, some junk will get past them all at one point or another. There are never any sure things. I'd just steer clear of ones with nefarious reputations (of which I have not found of CarMax).
