1. You don't need good credit to buy a car.. Just pay cash
2. with that history ,,IF you get a loan,,the payments will be horrendous. Better to save up some cash instead. Sometimes it isn't easy ..
3. Cash is about your only option. If you have an income and little debt, a co-signer might get you approved -- maybe not.
4. With money, obviously. If you've got money, you don't need credit. Cut your expenses in half and save up for it.
5. Bad Credit and Not alot of money? Try a screw driver and a slim jim!.... Just kidding, you must be careful. If you Must have a car now and Cant save more money ask around. Since any car at that price point will have a Gripp of miles on it look for one that you or a friend can work on. Avoid European cars no matter how cheap, you'll spend more keeping it running than if you spent a lil more on a Honda or Toy with more miles on it. Good Luck
6. Most car dealerships won't even finance anything under $2,000. So your best option would be to save up your money and pay for something in cash. You can get a pretty decent car from a car auction within your price range. Just remember to do a full inspection before you buy anything because they are sold in as-is condition.
7. I think you should clean up your credit a little first you will save thousands over the life of the loan. I found this website http://www.creditrepair1995.com it gives you all kinds of info and all the forms i need to raise my credit about 65 points so far for me. The cost is only $19.95 and it work compaired to paying someone else to do it it was easy.
