Auto Industry Option Score
The 3rd is a good read on how to go in prepared with your scores, in-case the stealership tries to screw you. Here is a little excerpt:
Quote:
Use Your FICO Scores to Beat the Auto Dealership
With the proper knowledge, you don't have to be prey for those sharks. Try this:
1. When you go to the finance director's office, don't tell her you know your FICO credit scores. Let her look at the scores herself. Then ask her what your scores are.
2. If the scores she reviewed are better than the ones you have, don't say anything and just go by her scores.
3. If your scores are better, then pull them out and show her. If she has a choice in the type of scores she can use, there's a possibility that she'll use highest score. Even better, this will let her know that she doesn't have an idiot sitting in front of her
