bought a brand new civic...for the gas mileage, not the performance, but thats another story...credit union gave me a 4.99% rate. my credit score is in the low 700s. anyone know of any websites that show the average interest rates in the country?

The last car loan I got was for a used car, and it was 7% for 60 months on $21,000.

Year 2000.

That's a very good rate. Best rate I could dig up when I got my new car 2 months ago was 5.9% (and our FICO scores are both upper 700's.)

My rate is 5.125% from 6 months ago. Edit, that is for 60 months. Which does make a big difference. Mine would have been 4.8% for 48 months.

Wow...THAT's helpful.

To the OP: I'd be comfortable with that rate. I think avg new car rates right now are in the 6 percents.
