Does McNamara own the cars I see online or are they owned by other individuals and dealers?

McNamara owns every car we sell, and unless otherwise noted, all the cars on our website are physically located at one of our McNamara stores.

Are You looking for a new car?

We appreciate you taking the time today to visit our web site. Our goal is to give you an interactive tour of our new and used inventory, as well as allow you to conveniently get a quote, schedule a service appointment, or apply for financing. The search for a luxury car is filled with high expectations.

 

How do you choose the cars that you sell?

We dig deep into every car’s history to rule out any car with flood damage, frame damage, or salvage history. Any car that can’t meet our Clean Title Guarantee gets sold at auction — not to you. Cars must also pass a 125+ point inspection and undergo a detailed reconditioning to be sold at McNamara. Some CarMax cars have unrepaired safety recalls; here’s what you should know about that.

What does it mean that all McNamara cars are McNamara Quality Certified?

Every car we sell is McNamara Certified, which means no flood or frame damage, and no salvage history. In addition, it means a car has passed our 125+ point inspection and undergone a detailed reconditioning process. A small sample of our 125+ point inspection includes checking all engine components and associated systems for proper operation, leaks, abnormal noises, corrosion, bad connections, or excessive wear. Tires and wheels must pass an inspection and are replaced when wear exceeds state or local law. Some McNamara cars have unrepaired safety recalls; here’s what you should know about that.

What is the Love Your Car Guarantee?

McNamara’s Love Your Car Guarantee is our way of helping you buy a car that truly fits your life, with 24-hour test drives and 30-day money back returns.

McNamara’s 24-hour test drive is a take-home test drive that gives you up to 24 hours to decide whether a car is right for you. Once you decide, you can purchase or return the car at the store where your test drive originated. Some restrictions apply, learn more.

Whether you take a 24-hour test drive or not, you now have 30 days (up to 1500 miles) to decide if the car you buy is right for your life. As long as the condition is consistent with when you purchased it and you’ve driven fewer than 1500 miles since your purchase, you can bring it back within 30 days and we’ll help you complete your return. Any refunds due back are typically mailed within 2 weeks of your return date.

Please note, if your financing included negative equity from your trade-in, you can either repay the negative equity or finance it with a different vehicle, subject to financing approval.

What is the difference between the McNamara limited warranty and the optional MaxCare® extended service plan?

Every car we sell automatically comes with a McNamara limited warranty even if your car is still covered under the manufacturer’s warranty. This means your vehicle’s major systems, plus hundreds of parts inside and out are covered, including labor. We offer a 90-Day/4,000-Mile (whichever comes first) Limited Warranty. See store for written details.

MaxCare extended service plans are an optional service you can choose to purchase when you purchase your car. These optional plans can be tailored to your monthly budget, and provide coverage of your vehicle’s major systems and hundreds of parts, inside and out, for several years.

Is there a fee for buying online?

 

No, there is no fee for buying online, regardless of whether you choose delivery or express pickup. If you choose a car that must be shipped to your local McNamara prior to your purchase, there may be a shipping fee. If a shipping fee applies to a car want to you buy online, it’ll be clearly displayed on the car’s detail page. Shipping fees are not part of the vehicle’s purchase price and are paid in advance of shipping the car.
