Welcome to the forum. Are the scores you cited FICO, or Vantage?
I'd caution against putting much faith in simulators as they are widely based on generalizations so they should be considered as more of for entertainment purposes only. With that said, you should see significant improvement in your scores once the collection is gone, and you get your UTI down. To optimize your scores you'll want to aim to only have one, or two of your revolving accounts (not a charge card, or store card) report a small balance (under 9%)... all the rest of your cards should be reporting zero.
Getting the car loan might not be much of a problem. What will determine what kind of rate you get and down payment requirement is going to be dependent on your scores, history, and DTI at the time of application. It should go without saying that you should wait until all these things fall into order before applying.
Do you have any equity in your current vehicle, or are you upside down..I assume you want to trade your current vehicle in? What was the original loan amount, banks do want to see a history of higher auto loans when you start talking about a 75k loan. With that said, are you planning on paying for tax,tags etc..or planning on rolling it into the loan..that easily would add another 4k to 5k to the loan. Now with that being said, the LTV(loan to value) of the vehicle without a down-payment would be in my estimation between 110%to 120%. I don't think a lender will extend that to you based on short credit history without a down-payment, to have some skin in the game.
On a side note, you probably would be looking at a $1500+ monthly payment, depending on the length of the loan with a 9% interest rate, which is average for a 730 Credit Score . My two cents,
unless you have equity in your current vehicle and cough up money to pay for the taxes or a down-payment..I wouldn't put myself in a car I am already wayyy underwater with for the next few years.
