Used Toyota Corolla Hatchback for Sale in Santa Monica, CA

I've been looking for a Tacoma TRD Off-Road 4x4 for some time. I did all the research online and when I finally reached out to dealers via Toyota.com, Manhattan Beach Toyota and Aaron Lear were the first to reply, and almost immediately. Aaron was extremely helpful and sincere, with absolutely no pressure from him. At the time of our first contact, I was not ready to purchase at that very moment. It took a couple of weeks to get my ducks in a row. During that time, I dealt with several other dealers, and while most were also pleasant, Aaron was the one I went back to due to his professionalism, and easy to get along with personality. My wife and just felt comfortable with him and that is why we decided to reach out to him first when I finally got things in order. He had the Tacoma I was looking for on the lot and we went to see him. Our experience once on the lot was exceptional. All the staff we dealt with were friendly, personable and professional. The negotiating was straight forward with no pressure and we got a the price we wanted. From the time we drove on to the lot, to when I drove away with my new Tacoma that same day, our entire time with Aaron and the rest of the Manhattan Beach staff (Nat and Hector included) was very pleasant and positive experience! I would recommend Aaron and Manhattan Beach Toyota to anyone looking for a new Toyota.

I love the looks and performance of this car. It's a lot faster than the previous generation. It does have fake exhaust tips in the bumper... buts it's amazing overall.

I had my 2016 Rav4 Serviced for the first time at the Hollywood Toyota dealer earlier this week. ( It was purchased from out of state) Michael told me that the service would be no charge due to the low Milage and being under 2 years old. He also explained to me when I should have the next service done to best take advantage of my last free service. He also told me my cabin and engine air filters should be changed soon but that they would be okay until my next service, but to be sure to plan on having that done at that time. My appointment was at 9 am. He told me the service should take about two hours. At 11:05 it was ready. I was concerned about having my SUV serviced at such a busy dealership and being lost in the shuffle. I was glad that did not happen. Everything was taken care of promptly and with the upmost of curtesy. 👍👍Thanks, Terry R

The sales people at Honda are great. I came by one weekend to test drive and get an idea of the car I wanted and I fell in love with the 2018 Honda Accord Sport 1.5L! Helmer Jason Mejia helped me out and we were able to make a good deal on the car. The only complaint was the LONG process! Took 5 hours! Other than that they were willing to work with my budget and didn’t push for sales or try to get me into any other car than what I wanted. Helmer was very genuine and an excellent sales person as well as a kind person. Car dealerships need more people like him! Thanks to him I was able to get the car I wanted on my first time leasing! Beyond happy and grateful. I would recommend anyone to come here. I know I’ll continue to be a future Honda customer!

I was looking for an economical little city car, but one with some oomph and refinement for highway trips. This car car has far exceeded my expectations. Quick, quiet, stylish and loaded with safety features. I really like the simple, peaceful interior. Sporty when you need it, too. Very good MPG, although I am getting a bit lower than advertised despite mostly conservative driving. 6 months, 2k miles, zero issues/defects.

My old car was my third minivan in 15 years. Now that my kids are older and leaving for college, I wanted something that could carry 6 or 7 passengers but was ... well... NOT a minivan. I did some research on late model used three-row SUVs, and found the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. (My favorite of my three vans was a 2005 Nissan Quest, so choosing Nissan was easy for me.) Before I started browsing for cars, I applied for credit through Carvana, and was approved. Next, I entered in all of the information about the van I was trading for the Pathfinder. (Beware -- the trade-in amount is only good for 7 days, and it can change wildly in that time!) I was pleased with the trade amount, and it was great that I could shop for my new car and see my down payment and monthly payment for every car I viewed! My specifications were pretty clear -- AWD, less than 10,000 miles, and never a rental car. I found my dream car a few days later, and started the purchase process. It was quite smooth and the directions were very clear about what documents need to be uploaded. When I went to click on "finalize purchase" (or something like that), a red flag popped up...my trade-in value expired WHILE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING OUT! I got on chat with Carvana staff right away, and they were able to return the trade in value to NEARLY what it was before the expiration. This is something that needs to be addressed by Carvana -- once a customer is to a certain point in the process, those numbers need to be frozen. So we set a delivery time, and the Carvana rep was pretty much on time considering he was traveling 70 miles or so from the Chicago office. Everything was smooth -- signed a couple more papers, took my Pathfinder for a spin, Eric inspected my trade, and I left within 30 minutes with my new car. I would also like to add that I drove directly to my mechanic, so he could inspect the car and make sure I wasn't buying something with hidden damage. Mechanic said to me, "This car is perfect, like new." Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Carvana! I am telling everyone I know about you guys. Good to work with you! Janet - 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

I freaking love my car. It’s sporty and has enough room for my 4 month old. First 4 door car I’ve ever owned. This is also the first brand new off the lot car I’ve ever owned.

This is a review of my SELLING experience to Carvana. I listed my car on Craigslist and was approached by an outsider buyer named Jan. She introduced me to Carvana, which I never heard of before, and it's process. She was very helpful and walked me through the process. The first deciding factor for selling to them was that they offered me the best price (vs. CarMax, Auto Nation, Trur Car). Then I realized the process was super streamlined. All I had to do was upload my documents and, after approval, schedule an appointment for the pickup of my car. Carvana sent a truck to COME TO ME to pick up the car. The driver (Lauren?) was very courteous and pleasant to work with, too. The pickup process, which included a one-mile test drive, took no longer than 20-30 minutes. Immediately after loading my car to their truck, I was handed the check, which I immediately deposited without any issues. My selling experience from being contacted by buyer to getting the check took just 10 days! (Would've been even faster if I was more timely with uploading my docs.) I'd highly recommend Carvana for selling your cars!

Buying through Carvana was one of the best transactional experiences ever! I shopped for several months, test drove several cars to understand the models and features I was looking for. Then, boom, the car that matched come up in my search and I pulled the trigger. Within minutes, I had a value on my trade-in, purchased the car, (to include a very well priced extended warranty), and arranged for financing it through the Carvana website. And, while that was a very easy, non pressure experience, what made it really special was the delivery. Rachel, the Caravan rep, called me the day before the delivery to confirm, then called while in route to be sure not to leave me hanging. She was right on time, professional, and extremely upbeat. I had a genuine feeling that her priority was not only to deliver the car and pick up my trade in, but it was to make the final part of my experience a pleasure as well. Rachel was extremely knowledgeable of the process and did an excellent job of assuring I was informed of the "7 day, no questions asked, test drive" as well as the final paperwork to be processed. A few signatures and the trade-in was her's and the keys to 2014 BMW 535 were in my hands.

Since I got to the dealer and drove it I knew I had to take it home. The sound system, the comfort and and style is amazing!

Out of the blue I was contacted by a woman from Carvana on a Sunday when I actually had time to communicate. She and all of the subsequent reps who sent me information as I needed or requested it were professional and thorough. I was able to research the company online and was impressed with the entire concept of online selling and car buying and the ease with which I was able to find background information. Once I agreed to the offer I was taken step by step through the process. I was not confused even once by the process. I had nothing to do but gather my documents, upload them and then schedule a date for my car to be picked up and for me to be paid. The local rep. From Carvana came to my home exactly at the agreed upon time, was clear about what was going to happen, worked quickly and answered my questions. Once the papers were signed (I did not need to go to the DMV or AAA or to a notary) I received my check and my car was loaded on the one car hauler and driven away. I deposited the check that day and funds were available the very next day (which happened to be a Sunday). If I were not really strapped for time perhaps I could have made an extra $ 500-1000 overall by selling it to an individual but I would have worked very hard for that extra money and spent time I did not have available. Instead, I was not stressed by the extra work, my other responsibilities were able to be met and my car is off and becoming someone else???s beautiful Subaru. Thank you Jan and all the others who worked on the transaction. Judy R ...

I have about 300 miles on my hatchback so far. I bought the car to try to mimic my first car, 1968 TR4A. I wanted a stick shift that I could wind out through the gears and scoot around corners, all while not getting a ticket. This is what this car does well. It is fun to drive. Out on the highway, it is so smooth. The active cruise is great. There are only a few negatives. The first is the cargo cover. It clunks when I go over a stiff bump. Some roads have a lot of stiff bumps, so this thing drives me crazy. The second is the center arm rest. It would be OK with an automatic, but it is too high for the stick shift. I can put my arm on it while shifting, but I am sliding my arm around on it as I shift. I can go to the driver's side of it, but then it's in the way when trying to go to 3rd and higher gears.. It needs to be 3 inches lower. I thought of removing the cover, but looking at it, it would not be easy to do so.

My husband told me about Carvana from a commercial ad he heard/saw. I laughed about it and said 'yah right, there's gotta be a hitch somewhere'. A few weeks later, he brought up Carvana again....curious, I decided to check it out online. The key words there was 'check it out'. I ended up buying a vehicle a couple hours later. Yeup, it was just like that. No hassle, no hidden costs or agendas. So after reviewing everything on the site, I started looking at minivans....I started falling in love with minivans....I started buying minivans....all through carvana. Once I locked in the one I wanted, I went through the credit process, documentation process, and pick up date (I chose pick up - because at this point, I still felt a little 'leary' about the whole deal'. It was so simple, and so honest, and so real. Over the course of the next 24 hours, all my submitted documents were approved and we just had two days to go to pick up the new mininvan. When we got to the store, it's not like a dealership with a lot, but it had three beautiful, well lit, very clean, showroom like bays that your vehicle is sitting in for your to do a complete inspection of it. It was very classy. Please note, our particular location does not have the car vending machine just yet. After passing our over check, I hopped in the car and drove it 65 miles home. She ran like a charm and I knew I had 7 days to decide if I wanted to keep her not. At day 3, although I loved her, she didn't have all the bells and whistles I truly wanted so that evening, I was back on the Carvana site, shopping for a replacement minivan....it's so easy to do when it gives you results based on your financial settings....I found the new 'her' a few hours later. I ordered her up and made the quick call explaining I was swapping and chose to have the vehicle delivered instead of going there to save time. The whole swap process took 2 days...they pulled up right to my house with my next new minivan. In my eyes, she was perfect, but I found a flaw before she was even off the truck. There was a huge bolt in the back tire. I was so disappointed. But Carvana took care of that so amazingly over the top.....they still brought her off the truck so I can check out the interior, test drive it, etc. We found a few more things that we felt should be fixed...minor things. Carvana took note of the items, and took the vehicle back on the truck but promised me (because I really wanted her that day) they would bring her back with a new tire....they kept their promise, three hours later she was back with a brand new tire, not one, but TWO brand new back tires. And they put an extra Carvana cup in the car for me. They swapped the minivans and off the old one went and there I sat with the new one. Smile ear to ear. I worked with Carvana on 6 items that we believed needed repair before committing to keep the vehicle. Carvana went above and beyond. I got an estimate for the repairs at a local shop, Carvana approved it, and within a few weeks, all repairs were completed through Carvana and I have the perfect vehicle, no hassle, no hidden agendas. And every person I dealt with on the phone or in person were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, FRIENDLY, HELPFUL, AND JUST THE BEST!! My Carvana experience was the absolute best. I will never go back to buying a car the old 'car dealership' way. And ironically, we had bought our other vehicle from a dealership just 3 months before being introduced to Carvana. I will give one warning about buying a vehicle through Carvana this way....it can be addicting..lol :-) Yes, I still shop Carvana cars every now and then....I don't even need a car, I just love seeing what Carvana has because it was sooo simple :-) Thank you Carvana for a trememdously wonderful experience.

This car is the best I’ve owned. It’s got everything I wanted. Bluetooth, backup camera, gps and tons more great stuff. Upgraded from Scion IA and I couldn’t be more satisfied with my purchase.

Buying a car is stressful even if you have a lot of experience. Historically, it has been time consuming, emotionally taxing and most of us go into a dealership with far less knowledge than we ought for a purchase of the magnitude of a car. Salespeople have (understandable) pressures to move inventory and even the most fair-minded is looking to get the highest price they can get away with. It is harrowing at best. With my experience with Carvana, all of these stresses were eliminated. I browsed inventory as widely or narrowly as I wanted, for as long as I needed. I could dictate pricing ranges that were suitable for me. The car I received was *exactly* the car I examined online, right down to some inconsequential bumper scuffs. Beyond this, and *absolutely unlike* any other online business, I could speak to a *real human being* within a few minutes of calling (I had six or seven conversations with Carvana agents over the 3 1/2 weeks from car selection to car receipt). They either had the answers at hand, or researched them and replied promptly with a follow up call. Delivery coordination and drop off (and test drive) were *painless no pressure* experiences???all preparatory contract paperwork was prepared in advance leaving only title transfer stuff to take care of. It took 45 minutes, tops. (I transacted entirely in cash, so I cannot speak to the process when there is financing.) Honestly, the biggest delay was on *my* end getting the insurance transferred (having to wait on hold with my insurance company for 15 minutes). The car was 100% was described???absolutely no surprises. The images on the web site for my car were not stock images. What I saw was what I got. Naturally, it was clean, filled up with a full tank, with new tires and the whole nine yards. Even got a ???free??? Carvana reusable coffee cup and key chain. Nice touch. The part that I found the most extraordinary was the 7-day money-back guarantee, which pretty much covers a change of mind unless you get into an accident or drive it a ton (over 400 miles, and even then, they???ll take it back after a modest per-mile-over-400 charge). All in all, I was dreading buying a car (and selling my used one) and Carvana made it pleasurable. I am absolutely recommending them to all of my friends and coworkers and I hope (as a relatively new company) they keep up the excellent work.

Yes, where do I start. Do I start with this being the best car buying experience I've ever had? That would be too obvious. But it would be the absolute honest truth. I think that everyone is so used to going to the dealership. Being there for 8 hours (you should get paid for being there you're there so long). Sales people trying to up-sell you on every little thing that you didn't ask for. Just an all around miserable experience. Then you go to carvana.com. You put in exactly what you're looking for. Exactly what you want to pay and presto you have a wonderful car. I believe it took me 45 minutes to do this entire transaction. From first going on the site and finding my 2016 Chervolet Equinox (maybe 15 minutes). To uploading my paperwork (5 minutes). To being approved (5 minutes). To having the car delivered, taking a test drive and signing the papers (20 minutes). It was the best transactions I've done since finding my husband. I've told everyone I know about this. We've watched videos of other people getting their cars. Too funny. Thank you Carvana for this wonderful experience. Can't wait to get my Husband a car now.

Love this hatchback. It looks fantastic and puts a smile on my face every time I see it. It comes with a lot of standard features for the price: Push to start, keyless entry, apple carplay, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, LED lights with auto brights, etc. The only gripe is the legroom in the back is a little cramped, but I rarely need to carry passengers in the back, so it’s not a big deal for me. Overall, I’m very pleased with my purchase. It is a new design and platform, so I’m hoping that Toyota reliability keeps this car going for many years to come.

I could not believe how easy - and fast - buying a car could be. I decided a used car was for me, so I started looking online and at local dealerships. All I can say is that that experience was enough to put me off the whole process. Dealer add-ons. Limited or no warranty. ???What are you willing to pay???? Enough!!! I saw an ad online for Carvana, which I had never heard of, and thought ???what the heck.??? Such a great find! From the quick and easy search, to no haggle pricing, to easy payment (I was able to pay cash online, but they also offer financing), to a no-risk 7-day return policy AND an additional 100-day warranty on top of that! There was nothing to lose. It took only a few days for delivery - to my home! - and the paperwork was handled in about 5 minutes. They even had a notary show up! They handle the registration, too - no waiting in line at DMV. Bottom line: I love the car, I got it at a good price, and it could not have been easier. Actually, it???s scary how easy it was. I have to stop myself from looking more on he Carvana website, lol.

This car meets all my expectative, security is a must and it has it , its a sport car, something I love , and even for its size has power. It the total package.

I made an appointment to get my care serviced here because it is so close to my home. Mike was great. My car was serviced very fast.

This car is awesome!! I have always respected the Corolla for its mpg and reliability but always thought of it as too generic. Then they brought the hatch back!!! This car has all of Toyota's Safety Sense options, gets 40+mpg, and is surprisingly quick and sporty. Looking forward to many years of driving enjoyment!! Get you one!!!

Love the modern and bright new facility. Snacks, water and coffee available while you wait. Plenty of plug ins to charge your computer or phone. Friendly and helpful staff!

The car suites my needs but comes up short in some areas. There is no leg room in the back seat. In order to make more room the front seat has to be pulled up. This shortens the leg room for the front seat passenger and puts the driver too close to the steering wheel. The trunk space is too small. The owners manual is not clear in some places.

Prices are market competitive when inspection & preparation fees are included - but the overall experience delivered with convenience at speed, well inspected/maintained cars with 5 day return & 30 days warranty is what will set this company apart. As a new immigrant to US, buying a car from Shift made my life easier as I didn't need to visit multiple dealers, understand the differences in services & pricing, no time spent on haggling the prices as it's not needed either, two test drives brought to my place at a time convenient for me & family thus we didn't have to face traffic etc, plus Shift is taking care of the DMW registration so it makes it whole lot easy. Both test Drivers were great and Emily from finance was particularly very patient & helpful with loan approvals.

Gary Morales the sales person was just the greatest really went out of his way to put us in something good for the family and also accomadated us while their at the dealer .... very friendly staff and comfortable atmosphere ¿

This car exceeds what I was looking for and the sales staff was like family. Micheal Wells was the best salesmen I have ever had he knew his stuff and wasn't affraid to go the extra mile to help us find a reliable and affordable car

Yesterday (2-18-18) ,my wife , my son and I had an absolutely positive New Car Leasing experience with Bryan Torres , Toyota Brand Specialist at Toyota Of Hollywood .Bryan was extremely knowledgeable about all the details of my new car . His courteous & friendly attitude was a fantastic fit with ours. Thanks to Bryan , yesterday's visit to Hollywood Toyota will " reserve a special seat "in my memory. And also , "Thank you very much, man ( a Philadelphia saying )!!! Joseph C

Good customer service. Got in and out really quick. Love the amenities they have for customers that wait for their car.

Bitar was very helpful and patient with us on finding our new car. Thank you to everyone who made this a very pleasant buying experience.

Here are my XSE - manual bullet points: Comfort: Good. Not a cushy ride. Not cushy seats. A bit stiff. Actually, the bigger profile tires do not absorb commuter potholes. You will feel 'em. Performance: I like that it is naturally-aspirated -- no turbo. In the long run, less to go wrong. The manual maximizes the engine's zip around town and it certainly does not feel underpowered on the highway. Not a speed demon, by any means. Good, but not great fuel economy for this segment. We live by Lake Superior, with frigid winters. Had a low oil pressure warning with about 600 miles on the car. Diagnosis....water/condensation in the oil. The oil was losing viscosity (freezing) with the below 0 weather. I will reserve judgement on dependability. Too early to tell. Not used to an Toyota engine issue on this new car. Exterior Styling: I love the looks of this car. The Corolla is now making a fashion statement. (Not the norm for this model.) I also ordered the white premium paint. After a number of washings and waxing, the finish is excellent. Not a blem to be found. The best...... Interior Design: Overall, nice. Fit and finish shows Toyota is paying attention. Dash screen options are good and colors are, well, stylish. Not sure whether I like the large flat screen, but it does provide good clear driver / front passenger communication. Back seat is a bit cramped and the hatch room is stingy. Value for the Money: My Corolla approached $25K. Not the cheapest in this category, but you get a lot for the money.....and hopefully, Toyota dependability. All the safety features. Heated seats. Intelligent manual -- I've been driving manuals forever, but I can tell the difference in IMT mode. Apple carplay. LED lights. 18 inch wheels. Great fit and finish. Reliabliity: One issue, so far. I am hoping for a huge dose of Toyota reliability. I'll reserve judgement. With three months of ownership and 1500 miles.....too early to tell.

I went into the dealer knowing I was interested in either an '18 or '19 Camry LE, and was working from the Costco negotiated price. Aren was very friendly, talked me through various issues to consider (V4 vs. V6, the advantages of the XLE and SE packages), and made the process very simple. He was proactive about showing me some of the newer features, including the driver safety features and the Apple CarPlay.

This car is perfect. I have zero complaints. It’s nimble, quick, has quick steering response, is planted firmly on the ground (balanced) and takes curves like a champ. It’s a true joy to drive. That, along with the reliability...what’s not to like? I test drove many cars before this one, but one drive was all it took.

A great job, as always buy Sam and the mechanics. I went in for service, oil change etc-turned out my alternator was going bad. Sam has the part delivered and I got my car back on the same day-convenient, and the next day I had plans for travel. Sam is always professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I am 100 % satisfied with my experience and will never take my vehicle anywhere else for service.
