How does an Upsidedown Auto Rollver work?

Guys I am looking for a car..but here is my situation

 

Current Car worth...2000

I Owe...5700

Cash on hand...9000

Looking to buy a car priced 32000 out the door

Approved for 30k..with 3% APR

 

Can i use the 9k to bring to bring the out the door price to 23k?..and ask them to roll over 3700 into the new Auto loan..so that way i will be financing 26700.  I just will like to be more informed of my options before i get involved negotiating

well since you have the cash you really are not rolling negative equity in... you are just fine.

+1 you're good to go. Just get the used car appraised at carmax so the dealer doesn't rip you off (use carmax's appraisal as leverage).

Why not pay the existing car off and keep paying the loan but into a savings account and build up a size able down payment that will also help lower your interest rate later. Is there a reason you need a new car now?

NotTellinYou...do u have something against people buying new cars? Most of your posts seem to question others decisions on purchasing new/newer cars.

Thanks for your advice...but i need a new car for my recent life changes..having a mustang is not the best to use with a larger family.
