guys... give me some advice what might be my best course to take .. I need to buy car within 10 days ..thanks
11% isn't a terrible APR in your situation at all. I think you already have your plan right there, that's exactly what I did actually and anecdotally it's worked for a lot of folks.

Starting Score: EQ 561, TU 567, EX 599* (12/30/11, EX lender pull 12/29/11)01-29-2013 01:16 PM

thanks everyone for your valuable input.
