Best Car Shopping App
Definitely my favorite app to search for cars. Ended up finding my future car using CarGurus. The filtering options make it far less overwhelming to search through the hundreds of listings to find what you’re actually looking for. The only other site I found myself actually using after downloading and searching for them all was Edmunds and I pretty much just used that to look up reviews on makes and models after using CarGurus to find the cars I was interested in.

Easy of use
Been on a car apps, not a techie person but this app is user friendly and simple to use
Great car search site
This site has been great in allowing me to search widely for the car I’m looking for. It allows you to plug in all kinds of criteria to narrow down your search based on miles away from you, trim levels, mileage, year made, etc. it’s helped me zero in on local dealerships when looking for a car to test drive w/o having to contact each dealer or search each website separately. Very helpful in searching for the right car (especially in such a tough market right now.)

Car search
Always worth price comparison
Awful app
Website is easier to use.
Some of the filters don’t work. Takes ages to load. Some pages don’t even have basic ‘back’ buttons! Missing a lot of basic app functionalities. Amount of taps to get from one page to another is shocking - actually putting me off using Car Gurus and I thought they were quite good. This definitely needs sorting ASAP.

App is good but needs changes
App is nice for the convenience of not needing to sign in like you would with the website. The setup is ok except for one thing that really needs to change is when you look at one vehicle listing and want to go back to the other listings, the “ All results” option is very close to the car gurus home page option and i quite often accidentally press that instead of the All results and it causes me to go back to the homepage and I have no way of getting back to where I was searching. Causes me a lot of frustration when I have many filters picked. I know I have the option to save my filters but sometimes I forget to do that. Another thing which has to do with the filters is how the filters options always changes depending on what you search for or how you search. For example when you want to search by body style it doesn’t allow you to put in the price. You have to search by price first then pick the body style but then you lose other filter options. I still will continue to use the app however I hope to see some improvements in the near future.

Useless
Doesn’t work with postal codes
Not trustworthy anymore.
CG used to be my go-to when looking at cars or helping friends find cars but it seems like CG has sold out, and I don’t say that lightly. I set the criteria to show me trucks under $5,000 and a minimum of 100K miles and the first 2 pages are nothing but trucks with under 30,000 miles and priced at $40K+ and all because they are “sponsored listings”, and the few that show up in the price range, are not real. The list price is actually the down payment and the real price is in the description and it’s usually $15K-$20K.
90% of the listings are not within the simple criteria I’ve set so unfortunately I am going to delete CarGurus.
I write this in hopes that enough people will agree and the creators will fix the issue.

Zip code issues!
Can’t fill out my zip code! Wrong keyboard and won’t except it even if I paste it on, I live in Canada!
Photos
Why would you allow sellers to list vehicles without even a single picture of the car they’re listing? I see listings all the time with a picture of the front of the car, and nothing else. Those are annoying, but at least there’s a general idea of what you’re getting into. Then I see listings that have no pictures, and very little to no info about the car besides the make and model. Half of the results in searches could just be makes and models, you have no idea what you’re looking at.
Fret not, there is an option to filter out the listings without photos. It only took my 1700 search results and literally made it “9 available listings” all of which were tens of thousands outside of the maximum price range I specified. Thanks CarGurus for allowing a good chunk of people to waste everyone’s time, and for your questionable efforts to help sort through the rubbish.
Other than that I have few complaints other than UI issues that I’m sure you pay people to figure out for you. If you have patience, you can definitely find your next car here. If you don’t, find another place.
