What used car dealerships have nice car photography on their sites?

I can’t believe how awful most of the shots are of used cars on dealership sites. I’m curious to see a dealership that actually has some decent photography for used cars — imagery that they have to take themselves rather than relying on the car manufacturer or cooperative advertising stock photography.

hey check my dealer out . www.scottautogroup.com my name is Jimmy Roman im in the la county. good luck

what are the pros and cons of securing your own auto financing, from a lender such as e-loan for example?

admin — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 15:11:48 +0000

I have "fair" credit and hate the long wait at the dealer while they play the "still looking for a fiancing company to take you" game. It seems smarter to cut out the middle man (last time I was a newbie and ended up with a 23% apr on a used, $14000 car!). Anything I should know as time is a factor; starting a new job and need transportation.

GK mentioned some good points. Stay away from the E-loan deal or Lending Tree because they will "shotgun" your credit to various lenders (meaning they’ll have numerous lenders pulling your credit). This is detrimental to your credit to a small degree. The bureaus do take into account if you’re shopping for a car, you’ll have some credit inquiries. The myth that your credit will fall greatly is untrue. This only happens if you’re applying for various types of credit in a small period of time. Such as applying for car loans, credit cards, and mortages all around the same time.

Look to Capital One and Road Loans. They are two lenders that specialize in fair to poor credit auto loans. They’ll ask for your verifiable income, residence, time on job, etc. By gathering this, they’ll pre-approve you up to a certain dollar amount they feel you can handle. Then, they’ll send you a check. They’ll require you to buy from a franchised dealer, a certain model year or newer, and under a certain mileage range.

Now, that being said, don’t overlook letting the dealership try to acquire you financing as well. Go ahead and secure your financing through companies like I just mentioned, and then give the dealership a chance too. Many times they have relationships with local banks or credit unions that may be more leanient lenders than can offer you a better rate.

Also, if you should get turned down from Roadloans or Cap One, many dealerships will still have great special financing options that you may very well qualify for. So don’t give up hope.

You’re better off buying cars that qualify for traditional financing than at a buy here pay here lot. You’ll get a later model, lower miles vehicle that will be more dependable. Nothing is worse than making a car payment AND having to pay for repairs as well. And many times the higher miles cars at buy here pay here lots WILL have trouble.

And don’t expect to get a low advertised rate. If your credit is less than perfect, you’ll have a higher rate. In essence, you’re buying your credit back. This is just the way it will be.

Also, most Kia & Hyundai dealers have bad credit programs. Call around.

STAY AWAY FROM IN-HOUSE FINANCING "TOTE-NOTE" DEALERS!!! Their cars are usually junk and they charge nearly twice the car’s value.

What used cars have a navigation system?

admin — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 15:11:32 +0000

I really like the prius and how like even the 2004s and 2005s have a touch screen navigation system, but I was wondering which other cars also have one, that you can buy used?
Oh yeah, and I mean the built-in one, lol, just thought i should add that haha

are you talking about other hybrids that have navigation systems, there are a lot of the cars to choose from. I would suggest that it would be much cheaper to just by a GPS system and add it to whatever car you want.

Here are a few links that should help:
