It may be difficult to get a loan from a mainstream lender with your score, but you do have a good income and low DTI.  You would have a pretty high interest rate also.  You could try a CU or someone like Roadloans/Santander.

Starting Score: 504
July 2013 score:
EQ FICO 819, TU08 778, EX "806 lender pull 07/26/2013
Goal Score: All Scores 760+, Newest goal 800+

Current scores after adding $81K in CLs and 2 new cars since July 2013
EQ:809 TU 777 EX 790 Now it's just garden time!

June 2017 update: All scores over 820, just pure gardening now.

+1 on Santander. I refinance Santander everyday and interest rates are between 6% - 26%. Your credit score falls right in line with what i normally see for Santander. Though the only way people normally receive financing from Santander is from a dealership. Do you feel comfortable walking into a dealership? Something I always tell my customers is that the dealership is a game that you have to learn how to play.

What kind of a car do you want that would cost 3 million dollars?

Is this your first car loan? In other words, do any other auto loans report to your credit currently?

 

If your EX/TU are above 600, I think you should be able to. I second the try Roadloans or Cap One. At worst, I'm sure a dealer will be able to finance you.

Thank you for feedback,

 

I'm interested in some kind of used SUV, Mitsubishi Montero or similar (I camp and snowboard) I'm willing to put considerable down payment, but would like to have auto loan to deversify my credit status. Maybe I can put 2-3-4k down and finance another 6-7-8k for 6+ months. I dont have any current autoloans.

I would begin your search by finding a vehcile from a dealership, you should be able to obtain financing from them. When was the repo?

Go to carmax, you will get financed with roadloans or Santander and it's all done practically instantly on computer... Only 1 person( the sales person sees until you decide to move forward and you would be approved at that point!)

Are you interested in paying the past baddies? Getting new credit? With that kind of income it would seem kind of easy and good idea to do
