To secure a good deal on a pre-owned vehicle, several things must fall into place at the same time. You need to locate an auto that meets your specific requirements, it should be priced to sell at a reliable dealer and the dealership should offer options for a variety of car loans in Mukilteo. In addition, you should review the extra costs that accompany this purchase, including fuel, repairs, maintenance and auto insurance.
When you choose from the myriad vehicles available, including used Kia cars for sale, and begin the paperwork to acquire financing, it helps to know what the terms mean:
- The down payment is the money you pay out-of-pocket when you begin the loan process. It is often a percentage of the purchase price. The larger the better. Sometimes you can trade in a vehicle and use the amount paid for it as a portion (or all) of your down payment.
- The loan term is the length of the loan and is typically 36-60 months or longer.
- The annual percentage rate or APR is the most critical factor when you finance. Getting the lowest possible APR is in your best interest.
- Finance charges are included in your loan. This is the money the lender charges to offer you financing.
- Extra fees and penalties, if any, are included in your contract. It is important to read the document very carefully and ask for an explanation of anything you do not completely understand.

I went in to Carson Cars deathly afraid of being screwed over. Ed was very very patient and worked with me to ensure that I drove off the lot with an affordable car that runs very well. Everyone was informative and helpful- from the folks on the lot, to the manager who sat down with us at one point. I will be back once in all paid off to upgrade my car. I’ve finally found a place that I trust and I look forward to being a returning customer of theirs.
