So, I've been looking for my first car for a long time, and yesterday I found one that I really like. It was a used 2007 Chevy Cobalt with about 33,000 miles on it. Nothing waswrong under the hood, and there were no scratches (well, that I noticed anyway). The price was 13,600, but we managed to get it down to 12,000. The only problem was that my cosigner had a credit score of 584, and they told us that they could finance us for 19%. We walked away, and they called us back saying they got it down to 11.99%. Should we walk away and find another car? Or does this seem like a pretty good deal? An I paying too much for the car? Oh, and we're puting $500 down, $1,000 if absolutely necessary. Is it possible to get this down to a note of $220 a month?
