Overall, I feel consensus though, with mica's and your arguments. BTW I'm 24.

If you can get a car at ZERO interest, just make sure it somehow isn't built into the price of the car. If you're bringing your own loan company, then obviously that's not a worry.
Getting a car at ZERO % is pretty much like paying straight cash for it (but a little at a time). In fact, better because money inflates (to some degree).
