If you have a credit score over 640 or more and a fairly extensive credit history, you should be able to purchase a vehicle with a traditional prime or near-prime auto loan pretty much anywhere in the Old North State. But even if this is the case, you should still do some research on the internet. For example, LotPro.com has an excellent web site that enables you to view the repair histories of most cars (provided you subscribe to the service), so that you can see how the vehicle you’re interested in compares with the other cars or trucks in its class.

North Carolina Bad Credit Car Dealers
The truth about bad credit car loans in North Carolina is that there are fewer and fewer consumers with "perfect credit" in the current economy. In that regard, you shouldn’t approach the car buying process thinking that you can’t get approved for a new or used car loan with a FICO score below 640 that includes bad credit or a bankruptcy. Most bad credit car loan programs offer affordable interest rates and a common sense qualification process.
If you have less than perfect credit, however, you may want to hold off driving around Greensboro (or Hickory, Jacksonville, Wilmington or Spartanburg). Here’s why: the bad credit car loans North Carolina buying process is much different. And just as the bad credit buying process is different, so is the dealer that can help you with a bad credit car loan.
The fact is, many North Carolina dealers choose not to deal with subprime lenders.
Bad credit car loans North Carolina require more effort than regular loans in the sense that dealers are responsible for more documentation and for making sure that the documentation is correct as well as verifiable. If anything goes wrong in the documentation process, the contract is sent back to the dealer and the dealer holds the contract for the car. This means the dealer must collect the monthly payments from the customer and dealers do not want to do this.
The used cars a dealer carries in inventory need to be purchased at or below NADA wholesale, since bad credit car loans North Carolina lenders base their "advance" (how much they will finance) on these figures. New cars also have to be within a certain price range, since subprime lenders are very strict about keeping your car payment within a budget range. Without the correct inventory, the dealer can’t sell any of the cars on the lot to subprime customers.
