Carvana.com users can research, view, and buy the used car of their dreams (or maybe just the car of necessity). Even the financing can be done online. Thanks to the amazingly high tech 360 degree photography, every knick and scratch and ripple in the leather can be seen. All vehicles are full inspected and reconditioned and are three years old or less. For the skeptics, every car comes with a 7 day, no-questions-asked money back guarantee.

Click through the list to see photos from the Atlanta launch party at the High Museum as well as photos of the first cars to be bought through Carvana.com.
