If there’s a specific vehicle you’re shopping for, just use the purple search box on the Cars.com homepage or get started here. Start by selecting the make and model or body style that you’re looking for, the maximum amount you are willing to spend, and your zip code. Once you click “Search,” you will see all vehicles in your area that might be a good fit.

To search for vehicles fitting your exact specifications, try our Advanced Search! On this page, you can focus on specific vehicle details—age, mileage, features, etc.—to ensure that your search results show exactly what you’re looking for.

Don't forget to research the vehicles you are interested in to see reviews from our expert editorial team alongside reviews from real car owners!

After entering your initial search, you can adjust the results by adding or removing filter options from the menu on the left-hand side of the page (or click the “Filter” button at the top of the search page if you’re on a mobile device). As you change the filters, the search results will automatically adjust to show only the available vehicles that meet your selected criteria.

Filter options will only appear when there are matching vehicles within your current search results. For example, you will not see red listed as a choice under Exterior Color if there are not any red vehicles available in your current search. To find the specific options you’re looking for, you may want to adjust your price range or expand your search to a wider area.
