MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY: My car had been on it's last leg and I've been eyeing the Tiguan for some time now. I was aiming for brand new but inventory has been scarce. I did have a pre-approval with Capital One and Carvana but ultimately went with my credit union since they had the lowest rate and were offering a cash bonus for financing the car through them. It was a win-win!
@Anonymous Congrats on the purchase and the deal you got with your credit union. The market is still really crazy and looks like it's going to be that way for a while. The G35 was a fine machine back in it's day but the VW is just as nice. Enjoy your new set of wheels!

MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY: I wasn't actually looking to buy a car, but Capital One kept offering me pre-approvals (up to $63,000) for a vehicle so I started to have a look. They offered me the above vehicle with a 60 month term at 7.14%. I didn't really think my credit was good enough for a car loan in the first place - but decided to check it out. Finally when it came time to visit the dealer and pull credit, I put around $6000 down plus a $2000 rebate offer - and I was surprised that Citizens offered me 3.99% on a much higher loan amount. Not sure which of the scores they used, I just know it was Equifax. Really curious how this new loan will ding my credit now though.

MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTARY: We had two auto loans On our reports that were both paid in full & never late. One of them was paid through capital one and they approved us on 10/1/2021, even though we hadn't been discharged yet. Their 10.99% rate and entire approval was contingent upon us receiving a BK7 discharge by October 29, 2021. I just learned from my attorney that we were discharged today 10/13/2021.

I'm curious about the numbers here because the term, rate, and loan amount don't seem to line up. Is the loan for longer or is the rate lower than stated? I'm thinking there's a typo there somewhere.
We had to go back to the dealer to correct an error on the paperwork (our city auto filled incorrectly). We ended up putting a little extra down before they submitted to the credit union. Final financing was $48,292 and payments are $616. We wanted to keep payments closer to $600/month.
