Credit Scores for Buying a Car: Current Tiered Rates & Scores (Former Dealer Explains)

[@georgeh6856]

I had a home mortgage for ~12 years, paying only the min. each month. I refinanced, but still a lot of principal left when I sold the house. I had car loans early on. What I learned is the opposite of the American dream: Live way under your means. Do everything as cheaply as you can. Buy reliable cheap used cars. Pay cash as much as you can. Put any money into paying off loans, and then into a house or condo you may own. I am now debt free.

[@lindap.p.1337]

Now this is sensible, practical advice.

[@Son37Lumiere]

This is what's called financial responsibility. Unfortunately since practically no one is doing this anymore it's driven the prices of everything so high that only the rich can afford to buy many things in cash.

Pro tip don't take advice from randoms on the internet who don't know your personal situation

[@nbalagopal]

I got a call from a Ford dealership today and the sales guy said. .. “I have a customer looking for the specific year/model/color of Ford you own and so if you’d like, we can give you a brand new one for the same MONTHLY PAYMENT... How does that sound?” ... I told him, we paid it off.. and he was like.. “Ok, have a good day..”

[@oyedokunamos3792]

I must confess it was too good to be true and felt like an orchestrated scam. I thought long and hard because I was in a credit mess, late payments, collections, repossession and I needed a bigger house for my family, a business loan which all was unattainable. I contacted him via ([e-mail]) I hoped testimonies about him was genuine and hell yes it was. I’m a living witness to his good works as my score has been upgraded . I have a FICO score of 770 now from mid 500 with an impeccable credit report.

[@davidmorrill1623]

Another pro tip - know what you can get on the open market and negotiate the best price you can while letting them think that you will finance with them. Turn down all of the crap they sell such as extended warranties (pays less than 30% out in covered repairs vs the price of the service) as all that really is good for is for ripping the customer off. Once the paperwork is done and you have your car, refinance 2 weeks later. For us, we went from 4.94% (with ultra-prime credit) to 3.39%

[@heathwoodruff6975]

Where you refinance through? Just a local credit union?

Pro tip: if you have bad credit, don’t borrow money to buy a depreciating asset like a car. Buy a cheap car for cash instead.

[@Anon1mous]

True but the reality is that if someone has poor credit already they probably got $0 cash because they'v shown they are not responsible with money.

[@Ojisan642]

Jon Sepueda true which is even more of a reason not to borrow money

[@seryooh]

Why not buy a cheap car with a loan and pay it off fairly quickly and increase your score at the same time?

[@WelcomeHome76]

You can have bad credit but have money to pay bills. A car loan can increase credit score. Get a car that holds value and is reliable and it can be have a lower expense than a cheap used car over a long period of time. A clever accountant can deduct many car related expenses.

[@mhbbej1]

All my credit cards and even bank (online site) offer FREE FICO score checks. Only issue is they vary by a few points depending on who they pull the score from and when. NEVER pay for a credit report or score. Everyone in USA gets a free one every year under federal law.

I too have wondered how credit was quantified back in the 70’s & 80’s. Someone had told me one one time that lenders used something called a “beacon score”?

Why in the world would you put money down, or pay off a 0% interest loan early? You use your money to invest and use their money for free while in effect you get the car cheaper as every month passes. That is Time Value of Money 101. Sorry to sound harsh. I just hate to see someone make a bad financial decision when they're trying to make good ones. They don't teach this stuff in high school unfortunately.

Let's say I pre shop for a loan at BOA and they come back at 4%. I go to the dealer and they run the application, and BOA is a lender that you work with, same in terms of loan amount and years. Does the system know that BOA has already quoted me at 4% or is it blind to my other application? If the system knows, is BOA obligated to come back at the same rate they have quoted, could they come back lower do to the volume of business between the dealer and the bank?

So, a used car is a higher interest rate. Ok, but the bank isn’t the one footing the bill for the repairs. Is there a high rate of people not paying their loans if their cars breakdown or is this just another way to legitimize higher rates? Because what I see is if people have to go to another car they tag the other loan on if they can or simply repair it. I get a higher rate if they are including another loan.

Darien in today's world where dealer are paying much more for inventory, it is hard to say. I would try for maybe a $1500 discount and see what they say. Stay safe, Ray

[@kwazy2893]

Do credit tiers just allow a dealership to just mark up the financing rather than pass that along to the customer? I've heard you say in the past that dealers negotiate with the banks but do they have to pass those savings along to the customer? How would you know what they are marking up those rates?

[@Anon1mous]

You wouldn't. Get financing ahead of time from your credit union so you know what your rate already is and see if they can offer a lower one.

I have a 720 score, am a first time buyer , with a one year credit history and trying to buy 60000$ car , what are chances to get approve with 10 percent down

[@CarEdge]

It depends on information that you haven't provided. How much do you earn? How long have you been on your job? How long have you been working in your line of work. What do your other expenses look like? What is your 720 credit score based on? How much other debt do you have? Without that information it would be hard to say whether or not you would get approved but as a lender why would I want to risk making such a large loan to an inexperienced first time buyer? My guess is that you would not be approved and my suggestion is that you would start your auto loan experience by looking at a $30,000 or less first car. All the best, Ray

[@paulbingville6485]

Just checked with my credit union. Their lowest loan rates are 1.99% for a new car and 2.94% for a 2010 or newer used car. With a credit score around 810, am guessing I'd qualify for them.

[@0pelman]

@@CarEdge My wife is on SSDI and workers comp and financed a Hyundai Elantra at 0% for 72 months - we just put $1k down to cover tax/tags. For 'occupation' she wrote 'retired' and for household income, she put our household income which is my salary and her SSDI/WC. Her credit score was 845 and she was approved in seconds. The source of income doesn't matter as much as the amount, and payment history with previous loans. Her low debt to income is a big factor, too. If someone is on SSDI and they're getting $700 a month and there is no other household income, getting a $20k car loan will be a no-go but only because of the amount of income, not its source.

I just Financed a car That was $15,000 But with dealers fees and taxes it came out to $17,000 I put down $8,000 in cash My credit auto score was 750. The dealer gave me an interest rate From a bank called ally financial Of 8.54 I told him that's high and I didn't understand why that was the only low interest rate he could find me because I had such a good credit score? His explanation was that Since it was my 1st time financing something that's why my interest rate was 8.54 I didn't understand why either if I put Almost half the money down on it as well.... I truly believe I had a bad deal and the dealership was called greenlight auto in bethany Connecticut! Actually I use your app on that vehicle And your pricing was a little bit lower on the walk outprice versus his pricing I believe That I had kind of a crooked deal And I had to give them $500 down for them to run my credit score that was not refundable. And if I didn't want to vehicle after my credit squirt was ran I cannot get the money back not get the money back. So I kind of felt forced and locked into the deal as well. I can sit there and say this was a bad 1st experience and I was very highly upset and felt like I was robbed and had a bad deal‼️‼️😡😡😡 What are your thoughts on this??
