Breaking Down New and Used Car Finance Steps
As is the case for most people near Meridian, you probably can’t just pay for a car with cash. That’s where automotive financing comes in — a process that not only helps you get behind your new Mazda CX-9 but can also help you build a healthy credit score. Here’s how the finance process works at our finance center:
- Determine how much money you can put down today.
- Determine how much you can afford to pay monthly for your vehicle.
- Use our payment calculator to get an idea of how much you could pay monthly for your desired Mazda model.
- Work with one of our finance representatives to fill out a finance application, or apply online.
- Review the results of your application, which will (typically) consist of: your total loan amount, how much your monthly payments will be, the APR or interest you will pay monthly on your loan, and the length of time the loan will last.
- Compare the application results with what you were looking to spend on a down payment and monthly payments, and either 1) Finalize your vehicle purchase or 2) Work with one of our finance representatives to negotiate a different loan.
Remember that you can also trade-in your current vehicle, if you have one, to reduce the cost of your new car.
