Used Cars: interest rate, looking to buy a car, fico score


Question
Hello
my sister in California is looking to buy a car.  Her FICO score is 679 it would be on a three year loan of under 20,000 with 5,000 down.  What kind of interest rate would she expect.
thank you for your time

Answer
If your sister's name is Judith I just answered this for her. If not than there is a person with the same credit score and the same loan amount asking me the same question today. That would be very odd.... oh well. Your rate will be around 8-9%. The year of the vehicle also affects the rate (the older the car the higher the rate).
Good Luck to ya, Shane
