Used cars for sale in Palo Alto, CA under $20,000

Stephan the manager was amazing! He was quick and efficient and helped us get in and out without much hassle.

I bought a used 2012 XC70 AWD with 65,000 miles after we were rear-ended in my Volvo 940. Before that one I had a 740 wagon in which I drove almost half a million trouble-free miles. I am not a fan of FWD (that's what this really is with traction control) but my mechanic told me the 3.2 engine was decent. After a test drive, I was really impressed and the turning radius wasn't bad so I bought it. I've now driven about 15,000 miles in it in varying conditions and I am hugely impressed. Despite its having 6 cylinders, the gas mileage is slightly better than my 940 and the difference in driving experience is like night and day. Although it doesn't corner quite as well as my earlier RWD models, the ride is much smoother and infinitely more comfortable. The seats are superb and the engine is so quiet, it almost feels like an electric vehicle. I love the heft of the chassis and the slightly higher ride than a regular car. The folks who have the turbo model speak highly of the performance, but the way I drive, the non-turbo one has plenty of power for my needs. The biggest pity is Volvo doesn't make cars like this any more. The newer ones look fancy but their 4 cylinder turbo motors just can't compare with a six. I expect repair costs to be somewhat high because of the way some components are situated under the hood, being difficult to get to, but until there's a problem I'm not going to worry about it. I love the 6-speed transmission and frankly, there's nothing about the car I don't like. Definitely better than an SUV in every way and more capable off-road than many 4WD vehicles. And it's classy looking. When you open and close the doors you know this is a quality vehicle with excellent engineering and it has safety features second to none.

The overall experience is excellent! I would recommend it to my friend.

Absolutely love this car. Kids 3rd row works well and OK for adults over short distances. Great trunk space as tail gate is not angled like other vehicles. High end options such as cooled seats and even heated 2nd row seats. AMAZING in the snow, good mileage. Driven >90K miles, always used Landrover for servicing which has been ~$300 per year except when brakes and tires needed. Only issue was within first year with sticking tailgate which the dealer promptly resolved. Otherwise a great car. Highly recommended!

Our family recently purchased a 2021 Toyota Highlander from this location and we could not be more pleased with the outstanding professional service as well as their simple price, simple process procedure. We are specially thankful to Mr. Dhanendra Shah for his patience, guidance, and overall experience!

This car has A lot of the technology that I was looking for Like Bluetooth, USB ports, backup camera . It handles well and has plenty of trunk space.

coming up on 95000 miles. 45-55 MPG. Its a 4 and optioned out. Quite competent. Easy to drive. Didn't buy it for looks, but it has grown on me, lol Most important, wife loves it.

Conversion vans are solid and luxurious but tough at the gas pump. Solid ride and great for travel, general commute, family and moving stuff. Mechanically well built trucks actually. Heavy duty trans and engines. My 1999 Ram1500 Van...just put new 5.9liter engine and cpu module. A keeper now.

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 was looking for a car to replace my aging M4 and found a possibility at Stevens Creek Showcase. I called them, easily made an appointment, and met with Mike and Cesar. I took the car for a test drive with Cesar, who was knowledgeable and not at all pushy. Mike worked with me on price and was terrific to deal with. I bought the car and am very happy with it - and even happier with Mike and Cesar who went the extra mile to make the deal work for us both. Couldn't recommend them more highly!

Avalon hybrid touring. Great road car. Smooth, quiet, very comfortable. Navigation system. Back up camera. 63,000 miles. Not a single thing has gone wrong or broken. 39 MGP. If you can find a low mileage one that has been properly maintained, it would be worth buying.

Great buying experience Calvin Gilyana was very prompt and helpful and everything was done in a timely manner I would recommend to friends and family

I bought my 2013 Elantra GT new. It was my very first Hyundai car. My passengers were always impressed by the quality build and handsome interior and technology. My only gripe was the 1.8Nu engine. It seemed weak at times. 3 adults and some luggage in the trunk made it sluggish when quick acceleration was needed. If it was just me it was adequate but never quick. I kept it 3 years and put 90,000 trouble free miles on it. Very reliable and good fuel economy. Never had any rattles like so many cars do by 90K. I understand the 2014 got a more powerful engine. But I would recommend this car to anyone needing a reliable used vehicle.

Very friendly people, great experience from arrival to leaving with the used vehicle we were interested in! Ashley and the rest of the staff we interacted with during the car-buying experience were very friendly. Did not pressure us about optional extended warranty which I'm deciding about but provided good information and were respectful. Information I viewed on cars.com matched up with Winn VW's information and Ashley was great answering extra questions we had about the vehicle.

I love my car, it is beautiful. I bought a 6 speed manual it is fantastic I really love this car it is very quick and a lot of fin to drive.

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

It’s a wonderful car great gas mileage I don’t have to worry about the winter in it getting to work it’s awd. Traci was a great sales lady couldn’t have asked for a better person.

Claullen worked hard to get me into something I liked and affordable. He was a complete professional and was extremely courteous and helpful. If you buy go buy from him.

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.

Look around first so you understand that their prices can't be haggled but it is worth it. I couldn't find a single car within $1K of their price. And the quality of the car was outstanding. Easy. Great kid's corner keeps them occupied too. No pressure sales is a beautiful thing.

The only real issue I've had since owning the vehicle is the electric power steering went out around I wanna say between 50k-60k miles. I have read a lot of reviews saying the same thing. Some even before 40k miles. Thankfully i had warranty cover it so I'm hoping it doesn't go out again. Supposedly they just reset the motor and it started working again. Other then that I just do regular maintenance on it like shocks, struts, brakes, rotors, and oil changes and that's about it. I got the car 11/2017 with 39k miles. It now has 78k miles. I live in Silicon Valley and have taken the vehicle to Los Angeles twice and drove all around the vicinity and got above 24 miles a gallon. Also i saw reviews that it has a weak transmission. I have mechanics tell me to do transmission exchanges every 30-35k miles depending on how you drive on this specific vehicle because of how vulnerable the tranny is . I didn't do mine until almost 40k miles later after I bought the car so I was above the safe zone. All in all take care of it and it'll take care of you.

I bought my Sienna from them, it was an excellent experience, staffs were nice plus they have a lot of cars to choose from. surprisingly there was no reviews, I will definitely recommend everyone to check them out.

This car meets all my needs, rides great, and I love the color! Most of all my salesman, Donnell at Fast Lane was truly a fabulous salesman!

We were lucky to have Sam Maldonado as our sales rep. Our most important criteria for complete satisfaction was communication. Sam was exceptional with this. He always responded quickly to our questions about choice of features for our 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV. He was also very responsive about delivery dates and changes in the dates that occurred. He got us in quickly when the car was delivered and had it prepped and washed while we were doing the paperwork. He guided us through that process in a clear and concise way. This is usually the worst part of buying a car but he made it interesting and fun. We bought the car at Capitol Chevy because we trusted Sam to make it go smoothly. He is very knowledgable about the car features and process for purchase. Sam is highly recommended without hesitation.

Radar Collision Warning is excellent. The car in right hand lane making too wide turn. Has me not focused on car 100 feet ahead of me. It stopped hanging out of driveway. Collision warning prevented from getting into accident.

I love my car. I wish is had front end sensors as my city has high curbs that I can't see during to the lower profile. It's an awesome car but I miss having truck

It's pretty smooth driving it, easy to handle very comfortably made front to back, seats are nice, speakers are decent for stock, the middle screen is easy to navigate through. Well rounded vehicle in my opinion

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!

I owned a 99 LS400 prior to my 430. After driving the 99 I was sold and had to have another LS. I literally have never driven anything that drives like the LS. The comfort smooth ride is unreal. I plan on getting at least 500k miles or more. LS from now on.

Alex helped me find the right car right away, and everything went smoothly. When i reported a problem with the brakes he replaced them immediately. I’m loving my Corolla and i recommend Diamond auto.

Bought used, cant really tell by the looks of it, 35,400 miles. I commute daily in it, charge it nightly and it’s ready to go in the morning, nice and warm. Car is pretty much a regular Golf other than the eMotor and the battery. Handles real nice due to very low center of gravity. Surprisingly good acceleration. 3 modes of power, normal, eco and eco+. Regenerative braking dumps power back into battery, If you drive carefully and leave plenty of room between your car and the one in front of you, you can almost use no braking and really extend your range. Very intuitive electronics, just took me a couple of days to get used to it. If you get the chance test drive one, you won’t regret it. Come December I’ll be charging from my Solar Array, so I won’t be paying for electricity.

North Bay Ford, every clean facility, every one is nice and my truck came back clean. Everything was great. Thank you

PERFORMANCE IS GREAT BEST VEHICLE IVE EVER HAD. HAD IT FOR 5 YEARS, KEPT THE OIL CHANGED AND WE'RE ARE STILL ROLLING WITH DEPENDENCY, RELIABILITY AND CONFIDENCE!
