Used FIAT cars for sale near Huntington Park, CA under $12,000

I'm 6'8". Its hard to find cars I fit in period. That being said. I have a taste for small rockets. And the (GQ) fiat 500 sport I have fits the bill. Basically an abarth motor. But not the handling or cool badges/interior. None the less. My big butt fits in it. Got to crank the seat way back. But it's just me in there most of the time. Its a fun little car that rips corners and stupid fun turbo pulls in 2nd and 3rd gear. Watch that esc light flash. Good fun. And the price for a used one ain't bad. Digging the 500

In 2008, my folks bought a new Chrysler Pacifica Limited. The car sales man was great. He knew all about the car and showed us everything about it. The dealership it's self is beautiful and super clean. They also have AWESOME cars inside in which you can sit and mess around in. The overall rating is a 4 BECAUSE, it is so hard to get a hold of these guys to take the car in. We've called 4 or 5 times to only leave messages that have never been responded to, so we are planning on just going there whether they want us to or not!

Just traded in my Fiat 500x pop for this little beauty. The Pop was my first Fiat and I really enjoyed driving that car. As long as you keep up basic maintenance, you can't go wrong with a Fiat. I've always wanted an L car. Extra room, automatic transmission (I didn't mind the manual stick shift of the Pop), love the side windows for better viewing. Fiat is a fun little car to drive! Maneuvers very well, wonderful turning radius for a "wagon", great gas mileage with an excellent Bluetooth & A/C systems. I am a very happy and satisfied with Fiat cars. You just can't go wrong them.

Saw the car on the website. Transferred from another Carmax location without any hassle. Process at the dealership was professional.

This is my first car. I adore it. I get loads of compliments—it’s super attractive and sporty with the convertible roof and the sleek two door design. Fiat really capitalizes on the small interior of the 500C with smart design. There’s no center console but there are still 4 cups holders, large (spanning the whole length of the doors) compartments in each door, a compartment between the front seats, a net pocket by the passenger side under the glove box, and a large pocket on the back of the passenger seat. What I’m saying is this: don’t be fooled by the size. There is ample room inside for what I need to carry with me, in fact, more space than I need. I usually drive alone or with a passenger and I have no kids, so I never feel cramped. I was able to fit $500 of groceries between the passenger seat and floor, backseat and floor, and the trunk. I’ve gone on numerous 2hr drives with a passenger with zero complaints of feeling cramped or claustrophobic. The inside is comparable to the feel of a standard sedan. A little smaller since the car is narrow, but comfortable. It also has a luxury feel to me. The dash is retro and adorable with knobs and the exterior color. The stereo is great and has a touch screen and GPS. The speakers’ bass is surprisingly heavy. I love the digital dash—odometer, speedometer, gas gauge, rpm, gas economy, engine and outside temp, tire pressure, date, time, miles left in your tank, how many miles your trip has been, etc. It has two different options for a little image of a Fiat which I love. It tells you which door is open if one is which is convenient. Everything on the dash is circular and centralized. There are so many small details that I love about this car—the houndstooth print seats, the leather steering wheel, backup sensors, steering wheel radio controls, window controls by the shifter, lights on the side of the car that blink with your directionals, the fact that if you open the trunk with the top down, the top automatically goes up one notch and the trunk opens saving you from having to enter the car and put the top up, little “Fiat” inscriptions in the headlights, and many other things. It rides great—very smooth for a compact car. Maneuverable, good tension on the wheel and pedals. The AC and heat cool and warm the car fast. The doors are large and heavy. The media, dash, and wheel controls are user-friendly. The car feels very sturdy and safe, but also cozy. Excellent gas mileage. You do have to use 91 or 93 octane gas but the tank is only 10 gallons and you’ll only find yourself filling it every few weeks if you drive a normal amount (to and from work, the store, etc). It’s a very responsive car—it does exactly what you want it to do. The only test is the winter. It is not AWD, so I will be getting snow tires and driving carefully. I feel confident about it. The car isn’t really lower than an average sedan but watch out for bottoming out. I don’t know anything about engines, but under the hood was extremely clean when I got it, whatever that means. There are two USB ports, a lighter port, and an AUX port. Middle E-brake which I prefer and a steering column in the middle, not on the steering wheel. Mine is automatic but driving this car stick would be a blast. Overall, an amazing car and I know it will be reliable and exactly what I need until the time comes for another car. I bought it with very low mileage so I’m not worried about repairs which I understand can be expensive since the car is Italian and parts can be tricky to find. I needed a reliable car to put a lot of miles on for a while and this is it!

Since 2014 I have purchased FOUR Fiat 500L's. The first was an Easy Model. With manual transmission. As a base model I was suprised at how much fun it was to drive. I traded it in 14 months later for a 2015. This was a lounge. In 2017 I bought another for myself and my wife has the 2015. I bought another 500L Trekking. I then traded the 2017 in. With two 500L's in the driveway I have a manual for my wife and automatic for me. These cars are functional and fun to drive. The easy model lacked navigation and Sirus and auto temp. Often joke they are so ugly but cute. If Fiat still made the 500L I'd buy another. I do not like the 500X as the rear area was reduced in size. It's not often I can't load a oddball size item in them. Each car has been dependable and easy to maintain. At 71 years old I'm not easy to please. I hope this helps. When I bought the first consumer reports did not rate the car very kind. I then sent a strongly worded letter to them. I lost respect for them.

This lot has great selection of cars. Cris is super helpful & easy to work with! He is very say going, but super efficient at meeting your progra. His cars drive very well! Highly recommend

I love my car. It, a 2014 500L Easy, was purchased in ‘16. I bought breaks, rotors and discs for all tires at $1000 and best Michelin’s for $1000. Finally replaced break and running lights for LEDs since, I think, they were being used as breakers for electrical surges. Just changed the spark plugs. I love the way it handles except I can’t power through. I want to tune it, but I fear transmission and break issues, and I have heard of the second cylinder going out. Generally, I absolutely love this car. I can rip through traffic, especially in sport mode. It is as agile as a deer.

Zippy, excellent pickup, and fun to drive! Perfect second car. Amazing in every way...performance, reliability, and ease. Was fine with the Level One charger that came with, plugged it into my garage every night and had no problems.

MARIA WAS A VERY GOOD HELP FAST EASY PROCESS WAS EASY HELPED US GET THE CAR WE WANTED

Had this car 3 years, and I’m planning to keep it longer, despite its faults. I have the 2016 500x 2ltr diesel, 4x4 auto version. All good, apart from... AC stopped working - and will be very costly to fix; and Intermittent gearbox problem - generally happens after a few hundred miles at motorway speed. Dealer doesn’t know what to do, out of warranty, and they deny there was a recall - which, if you google, is really easy to find.

My Fiat 500e was short-lived due to an accident, but it was a fantastic car once you get used to the range limitations. I work at home, but this car is a great second/commute car if that's relevant. First off, the car (mine was Celeste Blu) is a showstopper, and I constantly got compliments. The interior is equal parts stylish and quirky, all leather (mine was white/steam) and bright. A little cramped but crazy fun to drive. If you have a charger (I do), you just plug it in like a phone and it's always at 100%. The entertainment system is glitchy, but I added a mount and streamed from my phone. Overall, I miss this car and I'm sad I had to give it up. If you have the chance to get one, get one. It will probably be easy to sell later.

I was looking for a used Used Ford edge. They were great and worked with me as I am on disability and not able to come up with a lot of money down. Great people all the way around! I’m very very happy with my new use car!!!

If you need storage galore this fiat gives you a lot of space of shopping, travel and passengers comfortably stretching out their legs and arms. 360 degrees of windows. No blind spots. Looks a lot smaller than it actually is. It's a massive MPV. I have the treeking edition. Green with with roof and mirrors that looks very cool with the cross country looks. 2 driving steering wheel modes, treeking mode for off road trips, the seats adjust to your back at your own will. Lots of info entertainment. Better then the mini countryman for the value. Does not have a good motor in comparison but it's not built for speed its made for comfort. Second hand is very cheap. I recommend this car for young family's or numerous family's. Fiat 500 X looks better buts it's much smaller than the L and expensive... your choice

Super stylish, especially the cabrio. Unbelievably fun, powerful, and corners super well. Italian design throughout, thoughtful and attention to detail. Gas mileage was surprisingly high, especially for a turbo engine with Sport mode. Would highly recommend as second car, city driver, or anyone with style.

Met Daren at the dealership, very nice, went on test drive, made a quick deal,paperwork took 15 minutes. Perfect Transaction. Recommend to Everyone. Thanks Darren

I fell head it heels for the Bashmint blue. It is a soft costal color that always makes my heart smile. I bought this car when I had to have neck surgery and I needed a comfortable suspension. This car can travel Michigan crappy roads and not bother a C5-C6 neck surgery or a L5-S1 spinal surgery. It still is the most comfortable car I have ever driven or ridden in. I don't want to sell it but now that I am assisting my aging parents, have my own family and have 2 XL dogs. It was time to aquire a FLEX. The cargo space will fit golf clubs, or tons of shopping. The hatchback design has the ability to be 1 XL space or you can have "shelves" to allow more organized space. Great gas mileage. A perfect peppy car.

Overall good experience except waiting a very long time after choosing my car to purchase , for the finance dept to help me . The wait was over an hour.

This is our second 500, and our first electric. The car is of course wonderfully styled. It is amazingly comfortable for the size. With the seat folded we can easily make big Costco runs, we are getting use to what is needed with an electric to avoid range anxiety. The range and charging time are exactly as advertised. Our gas 500 was the most reliable car I have ever owned, and this shouldn?t even require maintenance. We have solar so the cost of driving has basically gone to 0. Amazing car.

I purchased a used Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG from the Carmax in Costa Mesa, CA about a month ago. I started out by calling the Carmax and reaching a sales agent. She worked with me by setting aside the car so that I could fly down to pick it up. She picked me up from the airport about 15 miles away from their dealership. When I saw the car, I found some minor cosmetic issues with the car and Carmax assured me that they would repair them at my local Carmax in Roseville, CA. I will be writing a review about that Carmax as well. They issued me a form stating repairs to be done at my local dealership. I informed the salesperson that I would be pushing the car a bit and she was fine with it. After the test drive, the car seemed to be in great condition, so we headed in for the paperwork. The appearance inside of the dealership building did not convey a welcoming feeling though. It felt like a warehouse with desks in it. The people within the building were nice and friendly though. The paperwork was pretty quick as I already had a loan check from the credit union. It took about 30 minutes and then I was on my way. Overall, I would say the experience was positive.

I love this car!! Driving in town is a joy, it handles so nice and driving any distance is a breeze too. She's just my size, so quite comfy. Great visibility and peppy. I really like the styling. It's a solid little car, even shutting the doors sounds good.

Jay, was very professional and courteous he got me in and out really fast!! I would definitely recommend J Star Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. Thank you

If you do most of your driving around town and within 40 miles of your house you can essentially stop paying for gas. Before you consider an electric vehicle, you may have to consider your daily commute length in miles, whether you have a 220v plug inside of your garage or if you do not have a garage, if you have one nearby on an exterior wall. I have neither, but I do have a free charger 1 mile from my house which is not inconvenient to use at all. The best charging network in my area is Chargepoint. I recommend downloading the apps, and driving around looking at utility companies and city facilities to see what kind of free charging options may be near by. I have had no problems always charging for free and in fact in about a month, I've never paid for a charge. If you can charge within 1 mile of your house it's not inconvenient at all and the chargepoint app lets you monitor your charge and lets you see when chargers become available. If you do have to pay for charges, the cost to charge this up 12x at home based on average electricity costs and about 1000 miles a month is about $20 in most of the country, maybe even less. If you live in CA or HI, you can expect double or triple that price. IN CA if you have PGE especially. We got ours used with 16k miles on it out the door for $9,600 as our main car and a gas guzzling 12-14mpg 20 year old SUV as our just in case we need to go far car (which we plan to replace with a 40+ mpg hybrid within 3 years or a used chevy BOLT or Tesla 3) Prior to getting this car I was paying about $280 on average and up to $500 a month for fuel. The payment + full coverage is $180 a month. If I dumped all the savings onto the payment I'd have it comfortably paid off in 3-4 years and then would just be racking up hundreds of dollars in savings every month until the battery breaks. Biggest downside so far: Fiat dealerships are few and far between, they know they don't make money on repairs for these cars because there's not much to break on them other than some suspension and potentially some electrical components. We hit a curb and had to have it towed to a dealership, you have to request a flat bed, some tow truck drivers aren't familiar with how to tow these vehicles, and then the dealership lied to me about and told me the tire I had on the car was no longer produced and that I needed to replace all four tires. Other downsides: FORGET about being able to use the A/C as you please and especially the heater. These two features eat up energy like you would not believe. If you live in a very warm climate and can't get by with the windows down, it might be a deal breaker. Same for very cold places. The seats are heated which is nice in cold weather but if you live in like Michigan or something it might not be enough. The interior is pretty plasticky and the overall fit and finish of the car isn't great. We drove a spark too and just couldn't find one that was as great of a bargain, but the fit and finish is much better and the dealer network for Chevy is much larger than Fiat (at least where I live). Battery cost is prohibitive. Things I've read online place a replacement battery at around $23,500 to $36,000. I did find re-manufactured batteries online for $3500 but IDK. In California, the batteries are mandated by law to be protected for 8 years or 100k miles. If the battery goes bad after that, it may be a big paper weight. The Spark is no longer made, but currently the battery replacement cost per the dealership was $6000. Bottom line: This car is not for everybody, but if you do mostly city driving and especially if you're taking miles off of a car that is very inefficient, this could be the right car for you. There are definite trade-offs but they have been mostly a non-issue.

Very helpful very nice guy Lon from karplus 😄😄😄 Misha was also very helpful. In general I had a good experience in Karplus Warehouse.

My car has a name. I named her Felicity. I've owned 2 sports cars before, but only weekend cars. Now Felicity IS my daily driver and I love it! I get compliments and she's surly a head turner! Fiat is overall reliable.. also she's a little four cylinder engine. Specifically, that features a 1.4-liter MultiAir Turbo four cylinder engine. I was told to stick to the 2019 model and to avoid years 2018 AND 2020. Felicity is a 2019 and this year is selected for the best engine experience. But only has 26k miles only! so singers crossed that further expensive repairs don't kick-in in the future lol

Dealers who sell pre-owned or off-lease are selling these in MN. There may be one near you, too. It's definitely worth checking, as the range is a make-or-break for many people. This car is affordable because of its range. Sure, the estimate will display up to 124 miles (could be more) when fully charged, but as you start driving, you'll see that first percent only gets you about half a real-life mile, and so it continues. I can absolutely count on 50 real-life miles per charge normally. Not normally: range can drop to 40 miles if the ambient temperature is below 10-degrees Fahrenheit, or above 95 degrees (F). Both the motor and the battery have to regulate their operating temp, and it sucks electricity to run those systems. Same with cabin temp. Too, some public chargers won't charge this car below 10 degrees (F). The displayed mileage I now call my "efficiency score." I've gotten it as high as 124, but generally sit around 110... because I don't use freeways. Faster speeds draw more juice, but given you're covering greater distance, it doesn't make as big a difference as lots of deep (slow downs and) accelerations. It's a learning curve, to be sure. I dropped a star from "comfort" because the back seats are super cramped, and the trunk is 11" deep with the seats up (though it's pretty normal as a two-seater). Had they angled the back wall more vertically, it would have created a lot more usable space. One last complaint: as with every post-2010 car I've seen, there isn't enough glass to actually see the road. I'm wobbling around in my seat trying to see around the supports, but I can't find anything different that isn't virtually vintage. Glass isn't cheap, lightweight, nor particularly safe... *during* a crash. Here's why I love it: as a mom (I have three people's worth of driving to do, plus some return trips), I'm saving over US$200/mo paying for electricity instead of gas. Yes, you can plug it right into a regular outlet for a slow charge. That's enough for getting around a decently-sized metro area, 'burbs included. I used my savings this summer to rent and ICE and take a road trip. It's dangerously responsive; the steering and acceleration are so tight it took me months to adjust. Way, way fun. People love that I'm tackling electric, and the magic of a car loan on this car makes it doable for anyone over 18 years old with a middling credit record. It's a good bleeding edge place to be. One caveat: second owners don't get all the digital features, like location tracking and the account that goes with it, Tom-tom/GPS-system updates, remote starting (which never worked for most people, anyway). Forget connecting or hacking... legally. It's still a great car, and you need internet on your phone to charge at public chargers, but the car won't connect to anything for anything except by Bluetooth, and even then only to make phone calls. You'll want a Bluetooth dongle to connect for media consumption.

It handles well and is incredibly spacious. The visibility is excellent because of the additional side windows just in front of the side-view mirrors, which have the additional feature of a small mirror that captures your blind spot (it's proven to work great). There is also an extra mirror that can be toggled to keep an eye on passengers in the back seat (makes a great , safe family car). As far as cons go, the suspension isn't the best and bumps can definitely be felt. It can get quite loud in the cabin when you're on the highway, but as a new driver, I don't see these as bad things per se because it makes me more aware of the road. A couple other cons are that it's sometimes hard to gauge how much you're accelerating/decelerating because the gas pedal doesn't give you a ton of feedback. All are things I've gotten used to though, and I rely on cruise control on the highway anyway, which has made long rides much smoother.

It’s great for commuting to work and back but can’t go too far due to the range being limited. The seats are somewhat comfortable, not too bad. There is virtually no leg room in the backseats. It definitely is for small kids only and no adults. Over all it’s great for a one to two person commute around town and work. Nothing more than that.

I got a 2013 Abarth as my first car at 18 years old. I drove it for 8 years until it was finally killed by a deer with over 223,000 miles on it and it was still going strong. It was always reliable and so much fun to drive. I drove it like any 18 year old kid would and it had no complaints. It made long commutes tolerable. It is also shockingly good in the snow. I only ever did routine maintenance to it and that’s all it needed. There were couple small things that started to go bad on it, such as the passenger window regulator, but nothing major ever broke. I would highly recommend this car to anyone who’s considering getting one. I would happily buy another one.

We managed to come to an agreement and purchased the car we wanted. There was not much negotiation, but the car was well priced to begin with. We agreed to pay $500 additional in order to drive the car away and have our mechanic inspect it. We got a week to report any issues and could return the car for a full refund if not satisfied by any necessary repairs. Ultimately the car checked out and the only problem was a piece of windshield trim that flew off on the way home. We negotiated a $200 refund and got the repair done by our mechanic so we didn’t have to drive the car back to the dealer. So far, so good.

This is exactly what I wanted for driving to/from gym, grocery store, etc. Fun to drive & good on gas. It is NOT good for driving up & down steep hills. Or accelerating onto a freeway. The power just isn’t there. But if you’re mostly doing flat city driving, it’s great. I love it.
