How does a preapproved car loan work? I'm about to get a new car just dont know what yet. Want to get the loan today because Friday Im going to go look.

How will paying for a car loan on a repo car affect my credit score? My husband and I signed a $20,000 loan on a truck. The payments were behind and the car was in a wreck. The truck was repossessed and the loan company says we still owe $8000. The loan company offered a settlement of $2800 if we pay by the end of the month. Does this sound right to anyone? How would it really affect my credit if I pay off the loan now?
What are my chances of getting a car loan? I don't know my credit score, but I can give you some details. I have been working out of college for 7 months. I make $32000 a year. I have been paying rent and utilities for 27 straight months without any late payments. I also have student loans, of which I pay $55/month and my parents pay the remaining $120/month. I have one credit card with a $1000 limit and never missed a payment and owe $0. The only other thing I pay for (other than usual groceries, etc) is car insurance. What are my chances of getting a $12-13k loan for a car? If it helps, I will be putting $5k down on it. I may also chose to go private sale for the car, but will still need the $12-13k loan and pay the difference in cash. ALSO, important...I won't have a cosigner. I don't have anyone who can cosign for me. Thanks everyone for the initial responses. I have already resorted to the fact that my interest rate is going to be a little high. If I could get a rate around 10-12% then I should be good with the monthly payment. I calculated using 10% and was under my threshold payment-wise. I figure if I put 30% down on the cost of the car (minus taxes, title) then I shouldn't be upside-down on the loan.
How exactly does a car loan work? I bought a 2007 Toyota Camry last August. It is still appraised at $21,900 in the blue book. However, I have not so great credit so I still owe $28k on my loan from Citi. I have been thinking about trading in my car and getting a used car that is about $13k or so. Is that stupid? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

How do I get a used car loan wihout any credit history? I have applied on a variety of online websites for a used car loan. They will deny me as I have no credit history. I tried CapitalOne and eLoan as well. My income is about $1400 monthly. I want a 10k loan to buy a used RSX from someone. I even tried getting the same car from a dealer but the guy told me to apply at CapitalOne which as I already said denied it. I don't have anyone I could use as a co-signer either. Any ideas how I can get the loan for this car without having to wait for better credit history?
What do you need to get a first time car loan WITH a cosigner? Hi! I am wanting to buy my first car. I'm 18 years old and the car I want is about $15,000. I just got a job (I have had other jobs before but not for the past 2 months) but I don't start for another 3 weeks. I will be earning about $600 a month. I have NO other bills to pay, and my parents will be giving me the money for insurance and HALF of the car payment, so paying it will be no problem. I need to apply for a loan, and I WILL have a cosigner with excellent credit (my dad). I know it varies from place to place, but in general, will I need to have worked at my job for a certain amount of time before I can get a loan? Also, can I put down what my parents give me as additional income when applying for loans? THANKS so much!

How can a person get out of a car loan with negative equity?

Solve an argument - refinancing car loan AFTER making really large payment? If you're planning to refinance your car loan in a few months (at a MUCH lower interest rate) what is the logic in paying a large chunk of money NOW to the company that holds the high-interest loan at the moment? Seriously, I'm missing the logic here. Wouldn't it be smarter, if you have a chunk of money (which is equal to three high-interest rate car loan payments) why wouldn't you just make your normal payment for the next few months, refinance at the lower rate and THEN pay the big chunk of money?

Can I get a car loan while unemployed, but with good credit? I will be starting grad school in the fall and am required to have a car for the particular program I'm in. I am not planning to be employed at all during the time I am in school. I ended my job about three weeks ago so I could do some traveling before the school year starts. I will be receiving about $30,000 in grants, scholarships, and loans each school year. $10,000 of this will go to paying tuition, books, etc. and so I will therefore be living off the remaining $20,000. Is there any chance that when I go to apply for a car loan that they will consider these loans and scholarships as income in lieu of an actual earned income from a job? What are my chances of being approved as an unemployed student? I do have excellent credit.

Whats my best way to save for a home with a car loan? Heres my situation I have managed to save approximately $5500 for a home and I have another $2800 on its way from my tax return and I want to start looking this summer, also I owe approximately $10000 at 5.9% interest on my car.

What’s the best way to request a lower interest rate on a car loan? We have a car loan that began in 2005 and have never made 1 late payment – every month the car loan was paid on time.

Will applying for car loans with multiple lenders hurt my chances of getting a loan? I'm fresh out of college and in need of a new car. I'm shopping for rates - filled out a credit application with the dealer, and a couple online. One of the lenders I applied with online wrote at the bottom of an email to "be sure not to apply in multiple places as it would hurt my credit score and negatively affect my chances of getting a loan!" Is this true?! If so, how am I supposed to compare rates?
How do you get a car loan if you have no credit, but bad credit? One of the things car dealers look for is established credit, if you do not have it they offer the first time buyers package. Only I don't qualify because even though I have no credit, I do have bad credit because of a Verizon phone/Net bill and a medical bill. Now paying these off is a step in the right direction but it's not going to help right now in concerns to getting a loan. Normally I'd be like screw it and get a used private one, only I went through two of them in the past year hurting my self in the process. Is there ANYTHING I can do? We're Sorry Thank you for your interest in DriveTime. Based on the information you provided on your application, we can't currently offer you a DriveTime auto loan. Although we approve more than 95 percent of all applicants, one or more of your responses on our application form indicate that you are not currently an ideal candidate for DriveTime financing: See what I'm saying, they make a bad situation worse, I have a full time job that pays close to 20 grand a year, so they lie when they say credit isn't a problem.
