about what kind of rate would you expect someone who is 20 years old to get? if they were to finance a car in around the 20k range.
and have a cosigner with perfect or near perfect credit score.
E: just test drove a gli from a random dealership but the monthly payments they wanted where insane. im pretty sure volkswagon brand new are less/month then what the guy offered me.
guessing my interest rate must of been like 20% or something.
idk, you can use lendingtree.com, I got 2 responses with rates within the hour, and another one the next day. Even if you don't go with one of them, you can at least get a ballpark of what your rates would be for no charge. I actually went with the dealers financing through Bank of America. The top rate I got on lending tree was 2.19% and the dealer assured me they could beat it (and they did by .1 lol).
Used cars and new cars are totally different for financing though. You can get much better rates on new cars... even as low as 0% in some cases.
oh and NEVER go by the monthly payment. Car guys love to say "I can put you in that car for $300/month". Always negotiate based on the price of the car, not the monthly payments.
