Are Vroom offers to buy your car legitimate?

I did Vroom online, 2020 GT500 w/9K miles and they offered 62K. Clowns.
Very strange indeed. They paid me $1300 more for my 2018 GT350 with 3K miles. They already had several GT350s for sale on their website and a couple of previous generation GT500s, so I am not sure why they did make you a better offer on your car. Maybe the money train is starting to dry up at Vroom...

After watching for several weeks, my car never showed up on their website for sale, which means someone at their Woodlands, TX location bought it before it was sent to their main location in Stafford, TX.

Clowns? Just because you overpaid for it doesn't mean someone else has too haha
I paid MSRP, so you are wrong. They have GT500s selling @ 80-90K, so they obviously made a mistake on their online offer. Pretty much a clown when you get something so wrong.

I wasn't wrong, their only going to pay what the market dictates, and a used car like yours or ours should be selling for around 72K so they were a bit low, but you can try and sell it to some other sucker for 6 figures, it's up to you how long you want to sit on a bad investment for :)

Is that for a base or CFTP? They offered me $82K for my ‘21 base. I’m not selling, was just curious what they were shelling out.
Base with tech package, 1100 miles.

Maybe it is the location, I think the car will be sold to the Los Angles location.

I've been wondering if Vroom/Carvana give you a soft black list if you get quotes too often. When I was selling my 2018 GT they offered my much less than what CarMax/dealers were willing to go for. Vroom was 20k under and I forgot what Carvana was but their offer was laughable too. At the beginning of the year Vroom was consistently ~3k higher with their offers.
