So I just wanted to hit people back up with a follow-up. Just walked out of the dealer with a 2013 Toyota Camry. A bit high miles on it, but that is okay. Its got 30000 miles. SUPER nice car, and since my last car was a Corolla that went 250000 miles, I figure it is a good risk.
I started off the morning going into the dealer I went into yesterday where I waited for 3 hours. I went in with my friend today and he co-signed for me. He has co-signed for two people before, all of which paid off their loans with no problems... The dealer told me that the banks are unwilling to work with us because we were not related... Seriously?
I did go onto roadloans.com and was approved for a $30,000 loan at 25% interest. I would have been paying $550 a month for 7 years, and in reality paying over $40000.00.
I decided this would have to be a last option. I'd buy a beater before that.
After I got home and collapsed from exhaustion on the couch, I got a call from a local dealer, who said they could try to get me a deal. I told them that I was looking for a Mustang (for looks), a Camry (for Gas Mileage), or a Jeep Wrangler (for sportyness ). They said they had a jeep and two Camry's. I took a look at them online, and told them that I would love their blue Camry, and they said that they would work on getting me a loan. I told them that the price was a bit much for me (18900 for a 2013 really not that bad around here) and he immediately took it down to 15000. He said he would work on the loan part.
The guy called me up in about 45 minutes, saying that he secured me a loan. He got my APR to 10%, no money down, and I am the proud owner of a 2013 Toyota Camry. 30,000 miles on it. He said all that he needed was my license, and he'd have me in and out in 20 minutes. I came in, and signed everything, and was out in 17 minutes flat.
My advice to people on here, is to keep trying. You don't have to go for a crazy APR (though 10% is a bit high, I'll try to refinance in a year or so). Shop around. Some places will work with you more. Some banks are terrible. Some are great. These guys and the bank I was working with were awesome.
Good luck to everyone!
