Carvana first brought Washington, D.C. the new way to buy a car in 2016,
offering free, as-soon-as-next-day vehicle delivery to metro area
residents. Customers who visit Carvana.com
from home or on the go via their mobile device can shop more than 10,000
vehicles, finance, purchase and schedule as-soon-as-next-day delivery or
Car Vending Machine pickup in as little as 10 minutes.
At the Car Vending Machine, customers can’t insert just any coin or bill
to retrieve their newly purchased vehicle – no matter what president is
on it. Customers receive a commemorative, oversized Carvana coin on-site
to activate the vending process and transport the car into the delivery
bay. All Carvana vehicles come with a seven-day return policy, an
upgrade to the traditional dealership test-drive experience, giving
customers the chance to see if the vehicle really fits their life.
Additionally, all vehicles are Carvana Certified, which means they pass
a rigorous 150-point inspection, have never been in a reported accident,
and have no frame damage. At Carvana.com, car shoppers can find
information about car features, imperfections and updated information
about open safety recalls for every vehicle in Carvana’s inventory.
“Washington, D.C. residents have welcomed the new way to buy a car for
nearly two years,” said Ernie Garcia, founder and CEO of Carvana.
“Growing our presence on the East Coast is a great way to kick off the
summer. We’re looking forward to bringing the fun car-buying experience
we’re known for to even more people in the area.”
Located at 15710 Shady Grove Road, Gaithersburg, Maryland, the
Washington, D.C. Car Vending Machine is open Monday through Saturday,
from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. ET. Vehicle pickup at any of Carvana’s Car Vending
Machines is free for all Carvana customers. For customers that live
outside of the D.C. metropolitan delivery area but would still like to
pick up their car at the Vending Machine, Carvana will subsidize $200 in
airfare and arrange transportation from Dulles International Airport.
