Is buying used luxury cars from CarMax with Maxcare still a good move?

I was trying to be responsible and buy a new hybrid Camry, but the CarMax near me has a 2018 Audi S6 for sale. I'm absolutely not buying a new one, and these still have the twin turbo V8. I briefly worked at CarMax, and their Maxcare was a great value for higher end vehicles. Has anyone else changed the game or come out with a similar extended warranty?

You won’t get a deal but you will get taken care of when it has issues, and it will. Now after it leaves the lot and you want to sell? How do you think someone’s going to feel buying a used twin turbo v8 audi, they won’t have maxcare… resell going to be a mother f on that car.

My friend got a used s4 from them with warranty. 6k later in warranty work for a console screen working on and off and still never got fixed, it was even taken to Audi dealership and they couldn’t fix it(hahahahahhashhahaha). Car max bought it back and she came to her senses and bought a Camry from them.
