Used cars for sale in Santa Barbara, CA under $40,000

I love to take the back roads with the top down and the music cranked. Handles and corners better than any vehicle I have ever driven.

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!!

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!

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.

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.

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.

This Jaguar is a head turner. The beautiful blue exterior compliments the Londan Tan interior. Fast Supercharged Car with luxury feel. The best car in town. You will get compliment every where you go!

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 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.

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.

Has it all and gives you great complements along the way. I am still figuring out all of the gadgets. The interior of the M5 is impeccable along with the twin turbo allows you to pass everyone and look good doing it.

I have a 2018 E400 Cabriolet. It is a great car. We use this car for the summer and for driving vacations. Mileage is very good,30mpg on the highway. Can not stress the comfort enough great road car, smooth ride, quiet, great handling, and cornering. Very nice styling and beautiful interior great sound system, heads up display, virtual dash is customizable with many options. A real pleasure to own and drive. a pleasure to drive.

Feels like a true sports car in the 6 speed manual. Handles excellent. No turbos! Just pure and simple Bmw V8 muscle. E92 has a reason to have fans.

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've had a my 1965 Mustang GT High Performance Convertible since my Dad bought me one new for making the Dean's List in High School and the Varsity Tennis team--May 1, 1965 Dad Paid $4,020,80 for this comfy manual 4-speed, front disc brakes, fog lamps, front seat belts, center console, AM Radio, with a Tachometer and Clock: My Father Believed that Power was safety when Passing cars--He wanted me to have the "Special Handling Package" for solid control which came with this model with manual steering, brakes, power top and front seat belts: His faith in me for handling a powerful car only made me drive that much safer--I never let him down; no tickets, no accidents, and I kept the car waxed, clean and garaged--saving the paint and interior as best I could--but it did need a new top and interior, and an engine overhaul after 150,000 miles in 1986--I read a review here where a man said it handles poorly--that may have been true with the basic model $2600 bare bones car but certainly not with the front disc brakes, 4-speed manual transmission and the "Special Handling Package" with Limited Slip--My car is very cozy and I've driven as far as Aptos CA to Everett WA in one haul, 1400 miles in 22 hours with a few rest stops, meals, good tunes, a warm heater, and comfort; and, were talking a convertible! Like any car one needs to read the manual to keep the car in shape and avoid breakdowns--If one follows the owners manual one will avoid any problems. I recall only one time over 700,000 miles I needed a tow truck for a faulty Alternator--my bad as this should be changed every 75,000 miles and I'd let it go over 125,000--AAA tow was free and the cost of a new Alternator was 29 bucks! Parts are inexpensive as over a 1/2 million of these cars were made in 1965 when we bought mine in May 1965 . My car has gone up in value ever year, is great for work or vacation with 2 kids--I get 18 miles to the gallon all around and can get 22 without my foot in it. it is now valued at $75,000 in Good Condition (mines a tad better as I've always had a garage); not bad for a car my Dad paid $4,020.80 for 56 years and 10 months ago.

The 2001-2006 BMW M3 (chassis code E46). This generation of M3, like others was and still is and icon of sport and spirited diving. When new, this set the bar and was the measuring stick by which other cars were evaluated. Sure, it doesn't have all the current tech, even seeming Spartan compared to all the comforts of a large high-end luxury sedan or SUV, but that's never been why we love M3s. Now the E46 M3 is between 14-19 years old and it's performance on paper is comparable to that of a new Civic Si, but it still has something that very few cars have. Dare I say it at the risk being cliche? Soul. The M3 wasn't supposed to be the fastest in a straight line but a well balanced alround touring car. Its the perfect balance of handling, power not too much power, and class while still reasonable enough to drive everyday or just on those nice spring Sundays. It does "fun" VERY well and that is why it still is one of the most pleasing cards to drive. The looks are before a lot of the more controversial later BMW designs. It has that work of art, screamer of an in-line 6 cylinder S54 motor (2001 engine of the year winner and winner of the 3-4 L category for six straight years in a row 2001-2006). Though SMG had begun to increase in popularity, some E46 M3s still came with an honest to goodness manual transmission. This is what makes the E46 M3 one of the best of what seems to be a dying bread of cars and values should hold (or even increase) through the years like most other M cars have done historically. Cost of ownership isn't cheap. It's a BMW, no surprise there. However, failure and repair costs increase when considering SMG equipped M3's. Another thing you should consider is how much money you'll spend washing and waxing it then time sitting there and staring. That's one of my hobbies too... when not driving it. The E46 M3 is in an icon in a lineage of special cars and had become an instant classic.

I didnt end up purchasing the car but the internet sales rep was happy to help with any questions regarding the car i was looking at. Great customer service.

Purchased 8/4/20 LOVE IT!!!! Love everything about it!! Comfortable ride. Great in snow and ice. Storage galore. Really a fabulous vehicle! Highly recommend this car.

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

I needed a car for my lengthy visits with my young grandkids and this car is perfect! I felt more comfortable buying a 7 year old Subaru than I would another used car. It’s easy to put the car seats in and there is plenty of room for everyone!

I live in New Jersey but was able to find the car I wanted through cars.com. I had a great experience dealing with Santa Barbara Auto Group. I dealt with CJ, who was very responsive. I would definitely recommend this dealer to anyone looking for a new car.

Acura RDX 2021 (technology package ) Is a nice car , Comfortable , smooth ,stylish and spacious. I am pleased with my purchase of the RDX

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

I was looking for a specific Car, a 2018 Jaguar XF SportBrake (Wagon) Nationwide since there have become pretty rare, there are really no 2019's in the country, and Santa Barbara had the exact one I wanted, every available option. They had the only 2 I have seen with every available option. I decided to go with the CPO one since it had the extended Certified warranty, in addition to factory warranty of course, and only had 375 miles on it. They even let me extend the CPO warranty by 1 years so now I'm covered for 6.5 years. The price was already such a great deal, much lower than any others I found and this one had more options, I didn't even try to negotiate and I usually like to try and negotiate on everything. Dealing with Don L. was such a pleasure, I'm in Denver so had to buy this without seeing it in person, he sent me many pictures and videos in addition to the many online pictures I could already see from the ad. He stayed in touch constantly either by phone or text, even on his days off during the week. without me asking he made the sure was loaded carefully by the car hauler when they arrived on a Saturday, his busiest day of the week, but still made sure mine was taken care of. I was able to make the deal quickly once I decided to buy and process was very easy. It was only about a week and half from the time I decided to buy until the Jag was in my garage.

4 moths and 4000 miles, a few rattles have developed, nothing significant, I got used to the touchpad interface and find it to be "just fine" as I typically use CarPlay and do most of my audio control from the steering wheel. The car is peppy, comfy and the audio system is STELLAR.

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.

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.
