My first car approval after my bk

So I have been wanting  a car in my name for a while and i finally decided to go for it. After a long divorce me and ex husband had to file bankrupcty in 2007 to clear business and personal matters. So not good!! but I did rebuild pretty good I think lol. So I drove a 2013 Audi A4, but that was my ex and it was paid in full when he gave it to me. The car was part of the alimony. But I wanted a car in my name that was just mine. 

Details: 

2013 Audi A4 trade in 

I was able to go to my local mercedes dealer... I got a beautiful 2012 E350 from mercedes financial with 1.9 apr.. I had to put 15k down though but the payment is only $250.00 a month.. I m so excited to take delivery.. At first I got the Capital One Blank check but the interest was 9% and they were able to beat it 

 

thanks everyone for all the tips.

Congrats, hope you like the new set of wheels.

 

Though couldn't your ex just transfer it to your name if it was part of the alimony? I mean in this case it was transferred to the dealer as a trade in and the value applied against your new car. Either way, glad it worked out for you and at such a low APR!
