Used cars for sale in Berkeley, CA under $20,000

The 2016 Subaru Outback is the first car I'd ever bought brand new, and I haven't been disappointed since it was purchased 7 years ago. It's very reliable, fun to drive, easy on gas, easy on maintenance and easy on the eyes. Will do it all over again when I make my next Subaru purchase!

Fabulous experience with Kian who did everything he could do to make sure my needs were met and I got the car I wanted. Patience extreme! He truly rocks at this!

Ford has given the hybrid world a shot in the arm! The C-MAX is a stylish alternative to more established players like the Toyota Prius. The Ford C-Max Hybrid is powered by a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder hybrid engine, combined with a lithium-ion powered battery, that produces 188 hp and 129 lb-ft of torque. This means when you are accelerating from a stop or moving at highway speeds, the C-Max Hybrid feels zippy. It also smoothly transitions between gas and electric power. The C-Max Hybrid rides firmly but also feels smooth on most road surfaces. It has responsive steering, a composed ride, and strong brakes. With all this zip and responsiveness, you still get an EPA estimated 44 mpg in the city, and 41mpg on the highway! These estimates are only topped, and slightly, by the Toyota Prius v’s.

I was so excited by my second Mercedes CLA 250 Mercedes Benz. From Mercedes Of Walnut Creek. I bought my 300 C class Mercedes Benz four years ago. The sales associate Boa, is the greatest. He is my go to guy every time at Mercedes-Benz of Walnut Creek, California. He always make me feel special. He works with me my last Mercedes that I just bought not even a month ago the CLA 250 he got me out of there in an hour and I?m so so satisfied with him. I love him he?s the best.

I can't write too much about this vehicle. The shop has had it longer than me. There seems to be an "out of balance" kind of shake when the vehicle reaches about 25 MPH. I have no doubt that the service team will find and correct the problem. I purchased this vehicle based on the fact that my mother had a Somerset and lent it to me for a week. That car was very comfortable and I knew this Enclave would live up to those standards. The SUV comfort was off the charts compared to that Somerset. For the short time I have driven it, I was pleased. I hope the shop finds the problem soon. I miss the comfort

The buying process was smooth, salesman very knowledgeable, and courteous. Never in a hurry. So far my BMW has not disappointed me and hoping it won’t

Equip with a beautiful duel clutch transmission, this car feels amazing to drive, up until about 40, where the early gears start to lag, but as suggested sport mode or down shifting solves this. Coming from a Honda civic 2017, I can say this car although slightly dated in the inside, feels loads more powerful and comfortable. With seats that hug your body, giving you one of the most comfortable seats out of any car period. The ride itself is great too, although a tad stiff, which in it's self gives it good handling and corning in return. The only big con is the interior is a little dated compared to newer cars, so not a whole lot of smart phone integration besides aux, usb, or Bluetooth, although this means less issues with electrical issues like my old Honda had. Overall I couldn't recommend this car enough, as when buying used it is far cheaper and better than comparative civic models like the ext or si.

It can be intimidating going to dealership , but Christy with her relax , casual but professional approach, made it super comfortable. Edmond is the same way! Thank u!

This car is very roomy & comfortable. It is all that I could expect from a smaller car , and much more. I love my car.

I have purchased 3 cars from Elite Motor Cars. An AMG GTR, a G63 and a RAM Laramie Longhorn. It literally feels like I am buying from a family member. They are attentive (even though they are always VERY busy) they are kind and it just feels like I am being very well taken care of by people who do honestly care about the customer. Alex and the crew are extremely responsive I can email him about the silliest stuff and he'll get back to me stat. My only complaint is that they had a battleship gray Audi special edition awhile back and I sort of feel like Alex should have read my mind and realized that I NEEDED that car (an amazing car). I was over in London at the time for work and I thought I could get back before it was sold. Instead he failed to read my mind and sold it to someone stranger that I now hate :) PS it took me less than 2 hours from walking into the store knowing I wanted the truck until I left the proud new owner.

I bought an LT model new in 2013 and have driven it daily ever since. I have not had a single problem of any sort.....no repairs, service, etc. other than oil changes at the proper intervals. The interior has held up beautifully, and the exterior paint has coped quite well with being parked outside in the hot desert sun. The gas mileage is around 16 to 17 MPG, which is rather low, but it is a large vehicle. Acceleration is excellent, but there is a lag before the transmission downshifts for passing. Overall, it is one of the nicest, quietest vehicles I have ever owned.

I have approximately 36,000 miles in my car! She’s black with chrome rims and a billet grill and is my pride and joy, (also my 5th) - Infiniti G series. Originally bought because I felt this car was the safest, while be it, classiest, mom car to drive around my daughters - I just love it! I can spot my car in a lot of 100’s - she is that unique! Absolutely a dream! Gas mileage not so great - that’s the price of beauty!

Good dealer . No high pressure sales tactics . Nice people . Bought a used Mazda with low miles . Considering the crazy used cad market , not a bad price .

Best truck I've ever owned. The ride is smooth and turns heads wherever I go. Only cons I have are the Bose stereo was not very good and the wheels were not too nice. I upgraded the stereo with a touchscreen pioneer app radio, changed all the door speakers with components and added subwoofers on a midgate box. Also upgraded the 17" wheels to 24" forged wheels and now my truck is a headturner. Gas milage is not the greatest but who buys an Escalade for that? Smiles per gallon is what its all about!

I bought my Chrysler 300 2012 brand new and when I took it to have the steering column repaired the dealership told me that they don't make that part anymore. Left me stun because I don't know what to do about it .I have always took my car to the dealership for repairs and oil changes. Still today I can't find anyone to fix it .I am very disappointed in the dealership. I need my car for work and doctor appointments. That car cost me a hefty penny. They should stop selling cars if they can't fix them . So disappointed!!!

My second 1999 ls400 I have owned.That was the year I chose for the 40 extra horse power and the last year the the bullet proof Kaizen quality control era.I put over 15k in mine and my first one I hardly did anything to it.They just run and run.The ac is remarkable.I put the cabin air filter and it runs ice cold in 74 setting around 98 degrees in Los Angeles.The summers are hot here and the car just won’t quit.I payed 15,300 with 87k miles on it.It took awhile but I made this car stand out from the reliable beaters out there.It’s mint,it’s classy and it’s mine.No matter if it’s a beater or not.This Lexus will never be a weak link unless you upgrade to the 430 or 460.Stick to the ls400 1zufe engines.These were installed on single engine planes.They invested over 400 million to make the best 4.0 V8 29mpg 290 engine.Sending spies down from Japan to Laguna beach California to see the wealthiest taste they prefer.The s class was the clear winner so they beat that beautiful German car with the 96-99 Sweet spot years to own the best of the best machinery available to the public.

We had the pleasure of having Victor help us find the best car for us he was so help full and made the process so smothe .

It has all the features I've wanted. Love the 3 rolls and how it's laid down. It rides really well. I really like it for sure

Let me tell you about AUDI/VW Marin: From the moment I walked in to the moment I left I had a beyond stellar experience. I originally went in to get my Audi serviced, but when I realized that the repairs would cost more than the car is worth, I decided to get another vehicle from VW/Audi in Marin The moment I walked in, I worked with my sales person, Isaac Helsabo, and he was very kind and informative and extremely helpful in finding the right vehicle for me. I ended up choosing a Volkswagen Tiguan and in less than 5 minutes we were out on the road test driving it and i was beyond excited to get the ball rolling on getting it. We then went back in to discuss more about the numbers and not only was he patient and kind, some of the other salesman we’re going to get their lunch and to my surprise they ended up getting me a Subway sandwich as well! It came out a perfect time because I was starving by that hour! They didn’t have to do that, but they did. Talk about going the extra mile I mean wow! And after working with Issac i went to the finance manager, Emad and the stellar experience continued. Not only did he help me get everything signed, he took the time to explain to me page by page what i was signing. All with kindness and patience. I mean what more could one ask for? 12 out of 10. Would definitely buy my next car from there!

Perfect car for all my trips with my children and grandkids. I can sit two cars seats in the back comfortably. I had a total knee replacement and getting in and out of the car is no problem for me

Have had trouble with car not starting. Seems the starter has a "flat spot" on it, and on occasion will not start. Battery is good, and I must turn the key up to ten times before it will "catch". Will happen up to 5 times, and then will move on and start just fine. Service unable to duplicate problem, so can't get it fixed under warranty.

I had no choice, my car of 20 years, which I bought brand new in 1999 was done. With so many websites ( I looked at several), I was not sure where to go. Then someone mentioned Car Max to me. I looked on line and saw a few cars I was interested in. The next weekend I drove to Colma to checked out and test drive a couple of cars. I decided to ask about Hybrids...you had 2. I test drove one of them and could not resist. I bought it. I was very impressed with the buying process. It was quick, easy and believe it or not relaxing since the sales person completed the paper work for me. Yes, I had to sign several sheets but that was a given. Something I was dreading for the past two years, was so surprisingly easy I couldn't believe it!!!

We bought this car new. Has 126,000 miles on it. Transfer case burned 2 yrs ago as Chevy changed its maintenance grid and didn't notify owners. Burns oil but changing oil sooner takes care of it. It is an AWD, 6cyl. Love this car but will be trading soon due to its age. It's been a great reliable vehicle!

I purchased my Camry at Hayward Autonation last summer and came back this week to have my car serviced for the first time after reaching 5,000 miles. Just like my buying experience, I was extremely pleased with the team I worked with, and was just as pleased having my car serviced. My advisor was Mario Caceres, who was very kind, prompt, and gave me a clear run down on what was done for my vehicle. Thank you all and I look forward to having my car serviced here again at 10,000 miles.

I own a 2006 300c 5.7 hemi, I’ve owned this car for about a year last original owner was a 70year old who bought the car brand new off the lot in 2006 with that being said the cars in amazing condition the only complaint I had when buying it was that the navigation stick stopped working and a piece of the chrome was peeling back, everything else was immaculate, as of right now it just clicked over to 120,000 miles, I’ve replaced spark plugs, axle back exhaust cold air intake and a tune, last week the car starting throwing a code for losing communication to ecu pcm and it will need a new computer which I mean isn’t to big of a deal 4-500 dollars, but as of today it started also throwing a code for mds cylinder deactivation circuit stuck open which I’ll have to rip apart the intake manifold to access, all in all if your looking for a nice reliableish v8 luxury car and for the year I’d definitely recommend a 300c weather the 5.7 or the srt8, aslong as you keep up with general maintenance full synthetic oil every 3k miles, flush out your diff and transmission spark plugs and coil packs it will last you 200,000 plus miles.

Shift was one of the first companies to make it easy to purchase a car through your phone, the purchasing process is so easy just scrolling through your phone choosing which car you want to test drive, no pressure on purchasing same day. You have the choice of multiple affordable cars, I have purchased already two cars and couldn’t be happier. Thank you shift

Amazing SUV. Never had any issues either mechanical or electrical - cheap to maintain - servicing can be done in acura or honda - best of car and SUV

I had a great car buying experience. I would definitely come back. The team was very helpful and made the experience a good one. I highly recommend this car max location and the people who work there.

I own and have owned Automobiles from a 1969 Lincoln Mark III, 1977 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham, 1983 Buick Riviera, 1991 Mercedes Benz SEL, 1993 Jaguar XJS Convertible, 1994 Mercedes Benz SL500, 2 1996 Jaguar XJ Vanden Plas, 2005 Audi A8L 4.2, 2008 Audi A8L 4.2 most of these Automobiles I still own. This Special Order, Chrysler 300 Platinum Edition, V8 AWD, Harmon Kardon, Tow Package, Every possible option now with 27k miles is no doubt the Very Best Automobile in my current collection and probably this best vehicle I have ever owned; it rivals the 1977 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham (440 V8 4 Barrell) in Luxury, Comfort, Reliability and Performance. This Automobile is a Keeper!!! I get so many compliments on it at all times. It handles and performs as well as the 2 Audi A8 but is extremely reliable. It has only been to Dealership Serivce for Scheduled Maintenance only.

What a journey it has been trying to buy my 2021 Ford Bronco First Edition. From beginning to end, I can honestly say that it has been nothing but a pleasure working with the incredible team at Towne Ford of Redwood City. This was my first time reserving a car, so I was quite unfamiliar with the process. Kevin has gone above and beyond of any dealership I have worked with to ensure I have the best experience. From the day I reserved the Bronco (July 2020), to when I finally was able to purchase it, he has been supportive every step of the way. There are nearly 40 email exchanges between us, and every time, he was attentive, even when he was on vacation. I have never had a dealership provide that level of support, huge thank you to you, Kevin! I also had the pleasure of working with Carlos and Manny on the day I purchased my Bronco. From the moment I arrived at the dealership, there was Carlos with the keys. Carlos was nothing but friendly, informative, and supportive as well. This was the first time I had spoken with Carlos, and he made me feel as if we have been friends for a while; that’s the type of experience everyone should have when visiting a dealership. Once we started the finance conversations, Manny was very helpful in every capacity. There were a few areas we had questions on, and he was quick to guide us through the entire process. Similar to everyone I had spoken to thus far, he was friendly and made sure we felt confident with our purchase. Carlos and Manny, a big thank you to you as well! All I can say is that this I HIGHLY recommend Towne Ford of Redwood City to anyone wanting to buy a Bronco or any other vehicle. This team has gone above and beyond, I’m proud to be part of their Ford family! You can also expect this bronco to be hitting the trails very soon! #BroncoNation

I have owned over 200 cars and the LS 430 is the absolute best car ever made, period. It has it all in style, performance, comfort and handling. A supreme automobile

I loved the no hassle and great price on warranties. I would recommend CarMax to everyone.

I had a great experience at 518 Auto Sales. Went for a n8ce cheap car. Found a gem. 2014 KIA OPTIMA BLACK CLEAN CARFAX . The staff was amazing ,friendly and very professional. Mike,Nick,Devan,Kevin, best people ever in the business. Go to 518 Auto Sales in Norfolk VA.

Tim is a true professional. Great to work with and also have a intelligent conversation with. Made the transaction smooth ans effortless. Enjoyed the process

I love my 14 Mazda 6 Grand Touring! In 8 years of owning it I have only come across a few less than desirable items, the leather seat tears easy in the perforated areas, the shifter assembly wears so the park sensor switch doesn't work , the brake rotors are too thin in the front and warp easily, plus I had a MAF sensor failure.
