need a car

i tried to get a car the end of june and was denied. at the time my four credit cards were maxed out and i had a 2000 downpayment. my credit score was like 570. i just got my car paid off after having a loan for 4 months. it was totalled.  so i was told that i had too many inquiries among other things.
 
so i am tryin to get a car on the 15 of august with between 1000-1500 down. i make 30k a year and been at the job for 6+months recent graduate with all my loans in good standing. my score is now a 588-600.  i will be using less than 40% of my credit at that point.
 
what are my chances of getting approved for a $12-14,000 car loan? who should i ask? i dont want to get denied again. and im not tryin to get too many inquires again so im afraid to try, but i really need a car to get to work. before i had a car with 300/month payment. the dealership figured out financing through wachovia.

Re: need a car

look at local CUs for financing -- also see if you can get a co-signer...may be your only option. good luck!

I thought that credit unions were harder to get than through the dealership or banks? my score is now 619 and should be coming up once some additional reports go through. im still waiting til the 15 to do anything.

typically not --- but i guess it depends on the CU...good luck either way.
