I went threw one that went so wrong, "bait and switch" That the salesman I was working with actually assalted the dealership owner, and quit his job. (a mitzubishi dealer in Sycamore illinois that is no-longer in bussiness.) Plus, I had to file grand theft charges with the Police that they stole my trade-in, by dealer trading it before the deal was finial.
I have the title to that trade-in vehical still.

When I was in college, my roommate got drunk, stole my beloved 79 Ford LTD and crashed it into two parked semis and a brick wall, rendering it useless. Of course he didn't have insurance... hell, he didn't even have a license, seeing as getting drunk and stealing cars was a bit of a hobby for him.
I had about $600 to find a replacement. Of course there's not much in that price range... I found a piece of crap Audi that my brother tried to talk me out of. I really should have known better when the owner made me sign a release stating I was accepting the car as is, but I was running out of time and hadn't found anything else. (And I'd only paid about $575 for the LTD, so I thought maybe I'd get lucky again.) I bought the piece of junk and it proceeded to break down on me about a week later (on Christmas Day, no less) and after sinking money into the towing, it turned out it would cost a couple thousand just to get it running. Thankfully the roommates mom took pity on me and bought me another used car to make up for her son's nonsense, and that one lasted a few years.

I bought a 78 int Scout from a used stealer ship and was told to come back a day later to pick up title due to private sell. The next day shop was closed and all cars gone, a big sign in the window out of business. I spent more to get the title in the end then i paid for the vehicle. 2 Days after i got the title the head gasket blow on the trail. I left it there for the taking.

I hate car dealers. I think the whole system is corrupt. I cant answer your question with any intelligence other than just giving you my opinion. Good credit will get you a good car. Bad credit will bury you like a dead pet hamster. The whole car buying experience is a sad compliment on a great country. I'm getting pissed just thinking about it. I need a shot of Jager.
