Used cars for sale in San Francisco, CA under $40,000

Great professional customer service. The dealership is well organized and made the purchase process very smooth and efficient. They were also very informative and I didn’t feel like I was being pressured to buy extras that I really did not need.

Superior handling and comfort, very stylish and sleek. Surprisingly good fuel economy, and the most important, the wife is extremely happy with the purchase. Thanks Elliott bay, for the hook up!!

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 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!!!

The car meet all my needs always wanted a car with a sunroof and leather seats so it meets all my desires. I enjoyed the test drive and the ride home was really comfortable, nice traction on road nice sounds very enjoyable ride.

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.

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.

Best vehicle I ever had!! Beautiful, spacious, great design!! Amazing interior, comfortable and very reliable!! I would probably recommend this car to my family and friends!

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!

Excellent car, just done 122K and runs like a dream, had it serviced regular by brilliant guys at the general motor company in Stockport in UK. Didn't want to trade in when lease finished. Looking to get many more miles Peter Gilligan

Jesse Leemen was very professional. I enjoyed working with him, he has a charismatic personality. I will recommend him to all my friends and family.

Great value for your money. Surpassed toyota canary for price and value. Only downside small 6.5 screen other than that the gas mileage is through the roof.

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 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.

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

How outstanding is the 4th Generation GS 350? It’s so exceptional that I just purchased my third one in eight years. My first was a ‘14 Sport and it was fantastic. During the early part of COVID when car sales were in decline I was at a Lexus dealership and they had a CPO ‘17 non-F Sport with 18k miles for sale and I was able to trade-in my 90k mike F-Sport, put no money down, reduce my payment by $30 per month. After a couple of years I really missed the performance of the F Sport, and the comfort of the 16 way adjustable leather seats. So, I recently traded in the ‘17 for another ‘14 F Sport. I’ve driven just about everything else that’s out there and I always come back to Lexus for the build quality, reliability, value, ease of city driving, and of course the performance of Sport+ when the roads beckons me to dig in. And this is easily a 200,000 mile automobile if you find one that was well maintained up to now. Now that the GS has been discontinued, you can find immaculate examples from $20k -$35k, depending on how important mileage is to you. I highly recommend limiting yourself to only authorized dealers or private parties with complete maintenance history because otherwise there’s simply too much avoidable risk. If you need the extra status and luxury appointments that come with BMW, Mercedes, or Audi there are plenty of pre-owned examples out there. Just be prepared for the cost of ownership.

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 love this car. Audi is the best looking car. I got Tango red metallic with black interior . When you open the door Audi rings light up so you can see better in dark

I just picked up my car having service today. Mel was great to deal with. Always consistent service and this is my goto shop for maintenance!

Hopefully. We have our forever car .Looking forward to traveling in this luxury vehicle and enjoying the comfort of the ride. Lexus was made for me!

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.

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

Excellent quality of parts, construction and workmanship. Comfortable and quiet on longer rides. Will truly go 85 miles on a single charge. Excellent if you are 35 miles or less from work.

I worked with Cinthya and bought a XC90 plugin hybrid here. Liked the way she handled my business, with open, punched and not sugar-coated communication.

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.

It was a great experience... I would certainly recommend to my friends..

This car is the most comfortable! Lots of room, lots of options, a dream to drive. Needed a bigger car that was good in the snow.
