Re: WHAT BANKS OR LOAN COMPANY ONLY USED EQUIFAX?

In October I was looking to buy a newer used car.  I needed to find an Experien dealer as that score was 714 VS the 660's of the other two.

 

I called the dealers i wanted to take my business to and found out that Subaru used EX.  That was exactly what I wanted and had the Forester of my dreams.  Subaru is financed by CHASE, who turned me down bc of the bankruptcy in 2005.  Another bank they had offered 12-15 percent. 

 

I had read all the info about Auto Enhanced FICO's from the stickie above, which armed me with tons of knowledge.  The finance manager knew I wasn't going to get scammed into some b.s. rate.  He let me take the car and then Monday morning called me, and told me he had convinced the local CU to use my EX score even though that CU pulls EQ.  I got a 5.24% rate, no down payment.

 

The last auto I bought I paid 24.9% until I got it refied after a year.  So going from 25 to 5 is pretty damn nifty.

 

Just CALL AROUND, make sure you read everyrthing about how dealerships work, and get 'r done!

 

Good Luck!!
