New RX-8 Owner........I HOPE

This tuesday which is tomorrow, I Will be going to my local Mazda dealer, where i will hopefully successfully purchase a new RX-8..

when i say hopefully, i mean, I Hope my co-signer's credit's good enough for a extremly low APR :P

Can anyone share theyre interest rate's for their rx-8s? any 0% financing going on?.. I havent really looked into it..

Color choice is gonna be black, or red / black / red interior.. 6 Spd of course Looking forward in hearing from everyone.. thanks

I would suggest you go to your local bank/credit union and get a pre-approval loan first. I would also suggest you get a print out of your credit report just so the dealer can't throw you a high APR rate.

I haven't heard of anyone getting 0% financing for the RX-8..maybe like 1.9 the lowest? I got 4.25 APRom a credit union and my credit score was 690 at that time.

I got mine at 4.5% with free gap insurance, but the company is military only financing/insurance.

my rate is I think 4.29% with a credit union- not the greatest credit at the time, in the mid 600's

hope that helps and good luck

So how much did your 4% interest rate's bring up the balance on the car?.. My friend's co signing for me, his credit is a1.. I'm pretty sure he can get the lowest.. But i'm looking at worst case scenario..

Thats a good way to mash up a friendship. Until you pay that car off you may experience discomfort with your friend as you will feel like you are on the hook with him for 10's of thousands of dollars. Even if you are makinh your monthlies no problem...its still gonna add un-needed stress

There should be a number of threads that address this, but I'll say it's a lot less than you might expect because it's a "four-door," has no turbo and has lots of airbags.
