Depends on what kind of car you want to buy. Different car companies have different financing criteria, there are also tons of different ways you can finance a car. Banks, Credit Unions, and of course through the car manufactures financing services. Example: If you wanted to buy an Acura RL which costs roughly $50,000 you would have now problem with $22k down and if your credit score is a 720 FICO and (assuming an industry average 7% APR loan rate) you could buy the car for approximately $750 a month for 60 months.
The questions you really want to ask your self is:
1. Can I afford the payment?
2. Do I want to afford the payment?
3. And do I really want to put my whole $22,000 down?
But you could even buy the car with less money down than you have, you will just have a higher payment per month. Your payment may even be lower if you get special factory backed financing like GM or Chrysler’s 0% we see advertised everywhere.

Assuming you have enough income to make payments, financing this shouldn't be a problem at all. 720 credit is considered excellent.
A high score shows that you are responsible with money. You may be a new teacher, making very little but conscientious. Or, you could be a doctor, making tons and spending all of it.

Most likely you would not have a problem getting the car if you are putting $22,000 down. They look at your credit score but they also look at your other obligations and see how much of your paycheck is left after your other bills.

Sure, but why on earth would you put $50K into a car. Will it make you REALLY all that more comfortable to be driving around in a vehicle which has over $10K sitting under each wheel ?
That being said, I drive what USED to be a $50K car, but I would NEVER buy one new. I spend about $30K for them when I buy them, and then generally drive them until they turn upside down alongside the freeway on their own and literally BEG to be retired.

yup... depending on your income level - to pay the remainder off. But do you really want a %50K car... put some of the money away and retire early!
