I do very well in my new business now, problem is its cash and no its not illegal lol. In the past 2 months I have cleaned up a lot. Had over 10 collections on all bureaus which 8 of them were paid and deleted and 2 are showing paid now just zero balances(Working on them to see if I can get deleted fully) 2 months ago my buddy at bmw financial got me approved for a 20k loan with 5K down also trading in a 09 cts with 2500 negative. I got a loan for 15k last year in december from credit acceptance at 25% rate. Yes I know, but I had to pay the penalty for my stupid moves. I have had no issue with them, made all my payments on time. One payment didnt go through because I entered the wrong checking info and they called 2 weeks later asking about it. I explained it must of been a mistake and cleared it up right there with no issue. Im in the market for a newer truck. I have since got 4 secured cards also. All the F150s Im looking at are 30K plus. I would love to do a new silverado but dont know if I would get financed for 40K. I have no problems making up to a 800 payment a month now.

I was in a very similar position about 18 months ago. I am sure you can be financed, the question is always at what cost, ie APR and down payment. Shopping in subprime sucks so if you can hold out for a little bit longer I think you can bump your scores enough to not have to deal with the predatory subprime folks. I would establish some unsecured cards, I am pretty sure you could get an unsecured Cap One Platinum now that your collections are paid. My scores were about where yours were, having that open TL and using if for a few months bumped my scores nicely. Your auto scores are not so bad really so I think a few more months they are likely to grow. I strongly suggest you join a credit union, DCU is very popular here, credit unions are owned by the members and they don't have that predatory instink that many regular lenders have. Getting preapproved through a credit union will greatly assist your purchase. Buying in the subprime lending market means the dealers often times have to chip in cash they actually pay to the lender to get you financed, this means of course that money is coming out of your end of the deal so in addtion to paying crazy interest your also paying money out of the deal just to get financed. Your making good money, I would make extra priniciple payments on your current car so your no upside down, going into a dealer with negative equity and subprime FICO makes you like a wounded prey, no way you walk out with a decent deal. Having even a tiny bit of equity in your car and a pre qualified loan from a lender will aid you greatly. Might want to try joining DCU, if you qualify for NFCU I am a big fan of them. Then if they accept you take a shot at a preapproval and see where you stand and plan accordingly.
Best of luck
Your biggest problem is not being able to prove your income. You need to start running your cash thru your bank account so lender can average 3 months deposits for your income.
If you can prove the deposits through your business bank account you should be OK. Now is a great time to buy and with a motivated finance department you may end up at 10% or so.
If it helps, I've gotten approved while getting paid cash. I just had to show 3-4 months of bank statement showing those regular deposits.
1. Refinance that current 25% loan FIRST!
2. Join a local credit union
3. Ford or Chevy are going to be easy approvals, just going to depend on rate but you should be able to get less than 10% and push and you can probably get less than 6%... your auto score should be better than regular score because of current loan.
My advice is if u do wanna say business is losing for 1st 2 years you should W2 yourself so you have an income. Just remember you filing for lost for business for first 2 years meaning your business wouldn't be able to get any type of credit. If you need to take out loan for business your business wouldn't be able to do it. For car loan you should try capital auto financing. They finance max amount of 40000.

Misc info
I want to be detailed here because I think it will help those who were in my situation.
Mid October I was denied for 2 used auto loans, I was littered with baddies on my reports, no revolving credit, I decided it was time for change. Last year this time I had no choice but to get into a loan at 25% on a 2009 Caddy CTS AT 450.00 a month. I had no issue paying it, I just wanted a full year of good payments. Well only after 2 months of cleaning up of being in the low to somewhat mid 500s forever.. Got 8 of 10 baddies paid and deleted. The other 2 went to zero balance. I opened 4 secured credit cards mid October and have only done the 2 dollar method on them. Scored bumped to the high 500s and since it seemed everyone had good luck with Dodge and it was the end of the year I was ready to give it a wing with 5k cash down. I was going to be about 3k negative on my caddy and was scared and thought that would be the last nail in the coffin. I have been monitoring every score like a nut every day. I told them I only wanted to try for ally and capital one because it seemed people on here had good luck. My regular ficos were 596 TU, 597 EX and 607 EQ which was a boost from mid October. So my autos 8s were TU 616, EX 598 and EQ 622. So I thought there was hope and I told the guy that I only wanted to try Ally and Capital One. Well I get the alerts when they pulled the inquiry and two hours go by with nothing. Then I get an alert for Chrysler Finacial and Im like **bleep**. I call the guy, he transfers me to the Finance Dept and I said I specifially asked not to do Chrylser. Then he pauses and says "Well they were the only ones who appoved you"......"Both others only would finance 25k", then I said well my bad, I feel like a idiot. I asked the APR and he said 10% and they even approved it with out a trade in. I wasnt even going to argue as my last car I still have Im paying 25% interest and about to get out of. I got a brand new Crew Cab Fully Loaded Sport Ram 4x4 for 42K out the door, MSRP was 51k. I want to thank everyone here and if there is hope for me then def hope for others.
So now I have talked with my parents and I'm gonna get them to take the caddy and finance it on their end. It really is a great car, I took care of it and it's perfect for them. If I have to pay something out of my pocket I'm fine with that to help that out. They have done so much for me when I was younger that this is the least I could do.
Once again. THANK YOU TOO EVERYONE!!!
