Used Vehicles Inventory in Santa Monica, CA
Our Used Inventory in Santa Monica, CA
We maintain a wide variety of used cars, trucks, SUVs and minivans to help you save as much money as possible. Quality is an extremely important component of our selection criteria. After all, we don't want to put a used vehicle on the lot unless it's something we could recommend to our friends and family. Many of our vehicles are late model cars and some are one-owner models which means they're more likely to have had consistent maintenance from a single, satisfied owner. Here are some of the other reasons to buy a quality used vehicle from us at Santa Monica Chrysler Jeep Dodge and Ram in Santa Monica, CA.
You’ll save on the selling price and the sales tax
Buyers from Santa Monica typically pay thousands of dollars less for a used vehicle than they would for a brand-new version of the same car. Of course the savings go beyond that because a lower price means you'll pay less in sales tax. Here in Santa Monica, the sales tax rate is a whopping 10.25%, which is among the highest in the state. So a new Jeep Grand Cherokee would cost about $64,000, bringing the sales tax in at more than $6,500 for a total cost of $70,500.
But a late model 2021 Grand Cherokee would sell for about $33,000 so the sales tax would be $3,380, a savings of more than $3,000. Of course, the used Grand Cherokee itself costs $31,000 less so your total savings are an incredible $34,000. So basically you're cutting your total transportation costs in half and you're still getting an outstanding family vehicle. After all, the Grand Cherokee is Jeep's most popular model so a used version is an amazing value.
A used car will cost you less in monthly insurance premiums
In addition to the enormous amount you can save on the selling price and local sales tax, you'll also pay less for car insurance. It's been estimated that car insurance rates drop by 3.4% for every year your vehicle ages. So if you get a three-year old Jeep Wrangler, you'd pay about 10% less for your car insurance premiums the first year you own that vehicle and your rates can drop even lower after that. Since Califonia's insurance rates are 12% higher than the national average, the savings can become very significant.
Used cars let you avoid high fees
With a new car, you often have to pay a lot beyond just the higher selling price. For example, shipping fees can add to the overall sticker price of a new car, truck or SUV. With a used car, you pay less for vehicle registration fees and for documentation fees.
Shopping for a used car lets you have far more variety
Our used inventory will give you much more variety in terms of brands, body styles and price ranges. Our used car lot will often let you choose from SUVs, sedans, hatchbacks, pickups, coupes, convertibles and passenger vans. You can still find used muscle cars here like the Dodge Challenger. In addition to a good selection of used Jeep, Dodge and Chrysler models, you can also shop for quality used vehicles from other respected brands like Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Porsche. Prices can range anywhere from $15,000 up to $90,000 so Santa Monica buyers can more easily find a car that fits your budget.
