*Wonders where OP got down payments are standardized.*

 

 

To my knowledege, all banks are different and will require a down payment to their liking and not some bizzare fixed standard of 20% as your post seems to suggest is standardized.

 

 

*Wonders if OP would be interested in less car*

My concern is that they will see the bk from 2009 and they will say you have to at least put down 20 %

I did just finish a Lexus lease from 2010, paid on time and actually paid off a little early

 

However, I had a repo in 2009 (repo'd but in the end included in bk)

 

So do you think the bk on my CR will affect my down?

I've never had a car dealership tell me that I had to put a certain % down payment. 

 

If it were me, I'd use the $ down towards a new Toyota Camry or similar type of nice car...  no need to go with a luxury car since your interest rate will probably not be ideal.

 

I realize though that your needs are different than mine.  The down payment amount you mentioned, 5k-8k seems very reasonable for the price of the car you are buying.

 

I'm buying a new Volvo, and I'm putting down a deposit of 2k (at time of order), plus $1,690 cash and the auto loan financing check from NFCU for 45k.    Also will be paying Tax, title, liscensing fees out of pocket when the vehicle arives in the USA.   Purchase price of 48,690

 

In 2009 I bought my first volvo, a CPO car for 19k, and put 2k down,   this was with a repo from 2006 on my credit report, and no auto loan since then. (I drove a company vehicle from 2006-2009)

How did you get a lease on a Lexus in 2010 after a repo and a bankruptcy in 2009, How did that affect your "Dowm"?

I got the Lexus lease because my father was the co-signer.  I sticker on the 2010 is-250 was 43k

I put down about 4500, 330 per month were my payments.

 

The finance manager at the time said I could have done the lease on my own, but my down and payments would have been very high

Its whatever the LTV is for that lender is for your credit teir.

 

for good to great credit LTV is over 100 percent..

Ditto to what tooleman694 said. My LTV with navy fed can be up to 125% if I wanted to finance the tax title and liscense fees.

I chose not to. I am financing 45k and I am paying 3690 out of pocket because I'm most comfortable with that.
