No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I am new to the boards, but have been following along for quite sometime now. I would like to buy a new vehicle at the end of the month. An Acura TSX..I'm looking at a used TSX for about $24k. I plan to put down $3k and trade in my Nissan which I will probably get about $3k for...
My current scores are TU - 661 : EQ : 667 : EX ? I have an old unpaid judgment with Capital One ($2k)...which is due to fall off my credit report in April of 2014. Not sure if I should try to pay it or just let it ride. I also have a few lates on my last auto loan, but no other baddies. I have one credit card with a utilization under 10% and some student loans.
Do you think a lender will touch me with the open judgment and the lates?
Thanks for the help!
The lates on your auto loan is going to be a hit on your auto enhanced FICO but you should still be able to get an approval but the interest rate is going to be ugly. I'd strongly suggest a cheaper car while you get your scores improved. A high interest rate on that big of a loan is going to leave you upside down for a long long time, but the bigger down payment will help there.
