Hey guys, figured I would post here.
As some of you might know, I moved from South America to the states almost 2 years ago (and have had a SSN for a year and a half). I moved to LA and of course needed a car so I went to a dealership and had to pretty much sign up a crappy loan because I had no credit history whatsoever.
The loan was a 80 mo with 12.5% APR. Yes, you read right 12.5% APR.
So now I've worked on my credit for the past two years and according to my latest FICO score it's at 684. Not EXCELLENT but I could definitely get a better rate nowadays. I have 45 payments left so I have no plans to increase them to 80 again, it would be a 45/48 month thing.
Thoughts? recommendations? Should I just hit a credit union and inquire?
