Just bought 2005 brand new SE, Pewter with splash guards...no other specials other than the standard extras with the SE. $23,200. OTD $24,352. Financed through state employee’s credit union 5.5%, $366 a month....not the best rate, but not bad for raising interest rate period. Good deal? |

Robgeo, What part of the country are you in? I think that's a great price on an SE  Greer |

Does anyone know what Honda's lowest APR currently is on the CR-V? Is 4.75 good? Just missed the 2.9 from last month, kind of regret it now. Are online insurance places cheaper than going in person? Can anyone make any recommendations in the NJ area? Or internet companies, besides Gieco.

Replying to: jsalz (Apr 13, 2005 9:23 pm) That's not generally a bad rate for a car loan, depending on the term of the loan. If it's a 60 month loan, it's pretty good. The rate you can get mostly depends on the length of the loan and your FICO score. At my credit union, I can currently get a 3.99%, 48 month loan for a new car (putting 20% down). Credit unions are a good place to check for rates. You could go the route of checking rates online (e-loan or something like that). I have never personally used a broker like e-loan. If you are sure that you're going to purchase the car within the next couple of weeks or so, go ahead and apply for loans online. All credit checks within a 2 week period count as only 1 hit on your FICO score. So, you could theoretically apply at several places within a 2 week period and it would only count as one inquiry. But, definitely check around and DEFINITELY make sure that there is no pre-payment penalty on the loan. That way if you want to pay the car off early, it won't cost you more. As for insurance, I have heard pretty good things about 21st Century (I'm not sure if they're available in your area). link title I've also heard good things about Wawanesa (but I think they are only in Canada, Oregon, and California). link title Personally, I prefer to pay a little more for service when I have a claim. So, I have all of my insurance (homeowner's, car, etc.) at one company. My suggestion is to check out the reputation of any company you consider. Epinions is a great place to check things out. link title Also check with the Better Business Bureau (link title). Some states also have insurance commissioners. I know that California has a lot of information about what companies have had complaints, etc. Whatever you do, when shopping for insurance make sure your're comparing apples to apples. You need to compare the exact same coverage if possible. Make sure you are comparing policies with the same deductible too. I hope that helps  Greer |
