My mother went to the dealer earlier and she likes a Toyota corolla that is about 19,000 and she got about 1,700 discount 1.9% interest and payments at around 260 with a $5,000 down payment. Can she push it any lower or is this as cheap as its gonna get??



1st ur numbers are within reason.
2cd the calculations seem accurate enough.
3rd it really is a matter of the deal. look up the price the maker charges the dealer (usually 85%) of list price. If the dealer is high volume then take an additional 10% off that and you know where there profit line is. They will need to make PROFIT for the deal to be worthwhile.
The auto dealers pull many tricks to coerce a sale. Make an offer and walk. Let them think a day and make the same offer again directly to the sales manager. DO NOT let them gang up and tell you what a deal it is.
No Thats actually a good payment. Just think of it like this.. For every 5K you finance, your payments will be $100.
So about 15K is 300.
Your mother is $40 lower then that.
She also has a really good interest rate!
Good luck on your car buying experience!!
year? lol
