Used cars for sale in Santa Barbara, CA under $30,000

From the first email about the car, (Patrick) was awesome. Always answered my emails promptly. (as well as anytime I phoned in) We drove down there on Saturday, bought the car. No pressure. No pushy, sneaky, sales tactics, in and out very quickly!!! Best experience ever!! Will use them again when ready to purchase a car as they broker out and can help you find a vehicle you are looking for as well, if it is not on their lot. We had found one they had their lot that was posted on cars.com ~~ GREAT car!!

Perfect vehicle in every way! Amazing gas mileage yet, faster than most SUV’s… I would recommend to anyone looking for a rocket on wheels. Love this ride!

purchased our dream car...sprinter camper van. they had what we were looking for, answered all our questions, and were very generous with their time to see that we got to put it thru its driving paces on a variety of terrains. very nice folks and very easy to deal with. all in all a great experience, would recommend them to anyone, anytime.

Bought this 01 996 as a retirement gift to myself 2 years ago. It’s an awesome car and it’s as much fun to drive as brand new 911. Not cluttered with high tech electronics it’s a simple blood and guts manual transmission sports car. It has nearly as much torque (259 lb feet) as horsepower (300). It might be the last affordable 911. FYI the IMS issue is overblown but that’s only my opinion. It checked off one of the top boxes on my bucket list. I’ll never sell this wonderful car,my kids can fight over it when I earn my wings. And it will be worth the fight to the winnner!

Straightforward, knowledgeable, answered my questions, replied to my inquiry quickly. What else is there? I did not buy from them, but it had nothing to do with the salesman. He was competent.

I own the 2011 Impreza Outback Sport. Can't say enough great things about this car. Over the past 10 years I have put 155,000 miles on it and it's still my every day vehicle. The biggest issue I've ever had with it was I had to replace the fuel pump around 120k. It's great in the snow, it handles very well overall, and I know it's safe to drive thanks to Subaru's 5 star crash rating.

I live in San Diego and bought a vehicle sight unseen from Maripas. Steven was so easy to work with, from assuring the vehicle was quality, to the delivery from Santa Barbara to my front door in San Diego. Complete quality service!

The 128i convertible is beautiful black and black interior. Lot of fun driving well balanced. Unfortunately it is expensive to fix when something breaks. And watch the car in hot fL i have gone through 3 tops the back window starts to separate from the top otherwise it is a great car

I bought a TR6 from across the country from these folks. Jim and Steve were great and provided some extra photos and videos of the car and never over represented its condition. After making the purchase, they were patient with my issues getting a trucking company to pick up the vehicle. They even provided a contact with a provider they had used previously. It can be stressful purchasing a car and even more so when it's all the way across the country. Milpas made that experience much less stressful with their extra service and communications.

Actually I wouldn't recommend this car as a daily driver. But as a fun Toy I would. It's impractical, if it needs repair expect awhile to get fixed. However you don't see many on the road, in the past four years I've only seen one other. Nobody really knows what it is, other than it says Fiat. Most people think it costs way more than it does. It's at least as fun to drive as a Miata. I have the Lusso model which means heated leather seats, here in Wisconsin that extends the driving season with the top down.

I bought my 1999 996 in early 1999. I love the styling and it drives like a dream. A daily drive for me these days with 85000 miles. The clutch was replaced after 50000 miles and I have the oil changed every 3000 miles. My mechanic has been taking care of it for over 20 years now. I asked about the IMS issue and am told there is no evidence of any problem. If you stay ahead of maintenance you will have the best automobile you could ever own.

The Audi SQ5 is a smooth fast car. It ran flawless for me for 4 years, bought used in 2016 and am just selling it now. The only thing it doesn't have alot of is console room for phone etc but that is very minor, love the big sunroof and the sport shift.

Always wanted an sl55 amg and finally found one for a reasonable price. The ABC suspension is a huge expense but the car is solid aside from that. With a few modifications and consistent upkeep this car will be a classic sports car for years to come.

I love my camaro. it's small and compact for parking and moving , when you need it to go. Ny only issue with the Camaro would be its low visibility. Your sitting so low that you cant see curbs or objects , but overall I love the vehicle. KUDOS to chevy

It has plenty of leg Room Very nice and reliable car So far I am loving it I strongly recommend this car To anyone who is looking for a charger

Met all my needs! This pickup will be used for personal and work purposes. I’m very happy with my purchase. I will enjoy my pickup truck.

The SPORT with the 2.7L 6 cylinder engine is a really, good suv for the money - NOT the lower trim versions, particularly with the 2.0L 4 cylinder. Those are rental fleet appliances. The SPORT, however, is properly quick. Handling is acceptable considering it sits on a front wheel drive chassis that does awd as a side hustle. The interior design is ok and can be had with a lot of premium features like hands-free parking, adaptive cruise, remote start and a huge sunroof. But it's all about that 2.7L V6 engine.

I went on truecars.com where I got my car from salesman Mike in Arlington, VA. He went above and beyond in his service and helping me get this car and I am very satisfied and really like the car. It was in excellent condition and I would definitely recommend it.

This is absolutely THE GREATEST CARS EVER MADE IN THE WORLD. THEY ARE BULLET-PROOF CARS made to drive for 350,000 miles or easily up to 400,000 miles since they are made to last with that incredible VTECH engine. Easy to drive, easy to park, glorious looking and fast as lightning especially with a 5 speed manual transmission.

Got this over a month ago.Enjoy the vehicle.No major issues.Just since its a 4 cylinder the pick up speed is lagging,especially merging onto a highway.But once your on,all good.

If heaved one owner owner kept up with main-tines . The inside of the car its like new. Run good reliable , Great on gas

Thank you Maggie!The service was great, the experience start to finish was about as painless as it could be. First of all the website was awesome, loads of photos and info. The online credit app was quick and easy and from sending an application to driving away was a quick few hours. The car was CLEAN and had all the service work needed and a fresh oil change. The staff was friendly and worked with my very challenged credit situation to get me what I wanted. Smiling ear to ear!

This 1970 Electra 225 was made one year later than the movie model but the only differences are improvements including revised grille and taillight trim. It?s s great ride with a very plush comfortable interior. It?s simply gorgeous. The sea mist green metallic exterior, soft bisque colored top and light latte interior make it a car that?s noticed wherever you go. The car is in great condition but the light interior might make it hard to keep clean. It?s an incredible from being powered by a 455 cubic inch V8 valve-in-head engine, and the THM400 3-speed automatic transmission. It is being sold by a professional auto mechanic who was given it in trade by the original owner who couldn?t pay their bill. He gave it a tune-up that included many new parts in addition to the new professionally rebuilt cylinder heads, carburetor and new electronic distributor. It?s a well-running, clean-driver with good tires and smooth suspension. It will wrap you in 1970s luxury and give you a ride as gentle as a cloud.

I came to the dealer looking to buy a car for my family and the dealer did everything to make sure I walk away with a car works with my needs and Pudget . Thanks STA AUTO GROUP If you are looking for a professional dealer with great price and selection I highly recommended. Especially mike the manager he was super helpful 👍

I personally like the gen1 looks over the gen2. Bought RTX new in ‘08 for $27000. Have 144,000 miles on it now and the only thing besides normal maintenance being done on it was a very light leak on the main seal. Fuel mileage isn’t the greatest. 15 around town; 22 at 60 mph on the freeway, 10-12 pulling the travel trailer. It has pulled a 21 foot travel trailer for about 30,000 miles (wet weight 4200 to 4600). It has gone (and is still going) countless miles on mountain, logging and skid roads. There have been times I would’ve loved a low-range but have been able to make do without. Lack of ground clearance has been a bigger issue for me. Another 3, or even 2 inches would be a huge help but on the gen1 that would require cutting the fenders and I won’t do that, so I’ll live with what I’ve got. I’ve been high centered with this RL but never just stuck. It’s amazing what it will muddle through, mud or snow. I’m 73 years young and I’ve had Fords, Chevies, Jimmies and Nissans but this RL is by far the most versatile, handiest vehicle I’ve ever owned.

The stereo system is great, ride is smooth, great visibility, plenty of interior room , love the paint color, plenty of power , great braking ability and self parking is a great option
