Car Purchase

Just bought a 2013 Subaru Legacy for $2k under invoice and they gave me $1,500 over book on my trade. Ended up financing around $16k at 0%.

 

Shopping many dealers seems to have paid off. Get them all competing and eventually you will find a deal that works for you.imagejpeg_2.jpg

Re: Car Purchase

How much did you have to paydown to get that 0 % APR?

I was a first time buyer with a low autoscore. I didn't put anything down, but I did trade in my other car. It was in rough shape and wasn't worth much, but they gave me $8k for it.

 

The sticker on the car was $26k. I got it out the door for around $24k. Minus the $8k from the trade. It all came down to a pretty good LTV. So, even though I did not qualify for tier 1 financing, they were able to push it through.
